Investigation of Flynn, Trump to Comey."He is a good guy, I hope you can let this go." then, fired!

Last edited Wed Jun 7, 2017, 05:50 PM - Edit history (3)

.........that is it......!!! President talking to chief of FBI..."I hope you can let this go.."...Saying it differently..would be...(my interpretation) ..."Stop this investigation"


I think that is more important than......."I need loyalty."......
..... but together the two statements, "I need loyalty" and "I hope you can let this go."..are in my opinion..enough to get the trial going...I am sure a grand jury would agree....

.And...Comey did NOT ..."let it go"...and then......HE WAS FIRED.....!!!

OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE...........

this is highlighted in large letters at this link....third comment down.....at the top of the article..next to picture of Comey..next to his tie.. When the President of the United States says to a subordinate..."I hope you can let this go".....In reference to an investigation..no matter what kind...it is almost a command.."let this go...stop this investigation ..(in my opinion)....I know others will agree..most others..

I'll bet everyone forgot about the "good guy" exception to any law! Damn, damn, and DAMN! That Donald Trump is just too foxy for us proles. All ready to talk about obstruction of justice, but we completely overlooked the "good guy" defense, and there it is - right in Comey's statement.

Go home, everybody. President Trump has won again.

"well why didn't you say so then? Case dismissed! Anything else I can do or you? Clean the white house drapes rather then just hide in them?"
