4. So "they" created a cover story

to explain why Trump had to fire Comey to try and stop the investigation.

They being the "brain trust" (Sessions, Kushner, Bannon, whoever).

So they had Rosenstein write a memo to cover their ass.

Only Donny "two scoops" Twitler just couldn't stick to the story. Had to blurt out that HE fired Comey and it was because of "Russia, Russia, Russia!!"

Which led to Rosenstein having to select Mueller as "special counsel" to continue the investigation.

So in tiny Donald's brain... Rosenstein is investigating him...

hence the logic to this tweet.

8. Didn't he ask Rosenstein for some memo about Comey that he claimed was why he fired Comey?

He isn't as good at setting up his excuses and lies as the Bushies were.

They were Machiavellian compared to his toddler who smears poop on the wall them blames it on the dog even though you catch him in the act.
