Comey delivers blow to trumps credibility

[URL=.html][IMG][/IMG][/URL]

Comey's hearing passes but the political storm rages on

(CNN)James Comey is at it again.

The FBI director, in his deadpan way, characteristically unleashed a new chain of political consequences Monday, in hours of steely testimony before a House hearing examining Russian meddling in the presidential election.

Just five months ago, Democrats were left fulminating at Comey's handling of the probe into Hillary Clinton's email server.

Now, as Comey wades back into the political swamp, it's Republicans who are left to fret after the FBI chief sensationally dispensed with protocol to confirm his agents were probing alleged collusion between then-candidate Donald Trump's campaign aides and Moscow.

"Deliver the goods."

"You can't con people, at least not for long," Trump writes. "You can create excitement, you can do wonderful promotion and get all kinds of press, and you can throw in a little hyperbole. But if you can't deliver the goods, people will eventually catch on
."
