No on ever prosecuted for obstruction because they "hoped" for an outcome, according to Comey. We're done here, go home libs.

But when asked what he thought the president meant, Comey felt it was clear that Trump wanted him to drop it. Because he is the president, and when the president makes a comment like that it carries weight. The request stunned him because he never had that happen before with any other president.

How can you say that? Comey only spoke to Barack TWICE.

Comey believes he was fired because of Russian investigation based of Trump's comments on tv.

Wasn't it Trump that said that the meetings were bugged/taped?

Senator Risch, R-Idaho, is trying to maintain that Trump saying, "I hope you let this go," is merely him expressing a yearning of some sort rather than a directive.

Strange that Trump would ask everyone else to leave the room so he could express his hopes and dreams.

Lord, I hope there are tapes.

Comey is falling on his face. He can't be definitive about anything. It's all about his feelings and interpretation. Nothing solid.

Good question why didn't Comey stand up against Trump. Comey hopes there are tapes.
