A report from the New York Times published in the aftermath of fired FBI Director James Comey’s congressional testimony offers a look into President Donald Trump’s reaction to Comey’s testimony, including how his aides packed his schedule “by design” so he wouldn’t be able to watch the entire Congressional hearing.
“We know how to fight better than anybody, and we never, ever give up — we are winners — and we are going to fight,” Trump reportedly told an assembled group of conservative evangelicals in during the “Faith and Freedom” conference in the middle of Comey’s testimony.
“In all,” Times writers Glenn Thrush and Maggie Haberman wrote, “Mr. Trump watched only about 45 minutes of Mr. Comey’s testimony, the people close to the president said. Much of that time was spent under the eye of his take-charge personal lawyer, Marc E. Kasowitz, and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, one of the cabinet members he trusts most.”
“This was by design, with the president’s tacit consent,” the report continued. “His aides packed the day with meetings and speechwriting sessions, including the “Faith and Freedom” conference and terrorism briefings with his national security adviser H. R. McMaster and Secretary of State Rex W. Tillerson.
