Some excerpts from Comey's book are starting to come out. Here's one:

James Comey’s memoir: Trump fixates on proving lewd dossier allegations false

Interacting with Trump, Comey writes, gave him “flashbacks to my earlier career as a prosecutor against the Mob. The silent circle of assent. The boss in complete control. The loyalty oaths. The us-versus-them worldview. The lying about all things, large and small, in service to some code of loyalty that put the organization above morality and above the truth.”

It's going to be difficult for the RNC if, as has just been reported, the audio recordings of conversations that Cohen made and kept on his computers reveal that Comey is not lying.

No real evidence so just opinion on my part
But some numbers were just too close to be true...
I think my argument for Sanders is a little stronger than conspiracy theories.

Other than running an extremely poor campaign..

If she hadn't had that private server then it never would have been hacked.
If she hadn't allowed huma to send her emails to weiner's laptop then there would have been no reason for comey to reopen the case.


comey has a secondary responsibility for her loss, in that he was the one who had listed off all that she'd done wrong and then stepped out of his job description to make up a reason to let her off.





PLEASE!!!!
In 64pt typeface
HRC's server was NOT HACKED
At any POINT===
If you have emails from HER SERVER then you had to have hacked it before the guy took it outside and beat it to bits with a sledge...
OTHER PEOPLE had their servers hacked and emails to/from HRC might have been acquired from those hacks--
Like Podesta's...

BUT HRC wasn't hacked...

It is so simple but you obviously get lot of pleasure or maybe a payoff for every time you post it...

It is still an opinion----
And opinions run the gamut from the moon landing being orchestrated by the Kennedy administration or the CIA was behind the rise of drug imports during the Iran Contra scandle to OJ was really guilty...

I agree with that---
But I have also read some very troubling reports within the last year that the sophistication of video and audio substitutions replacing the virtual reality of what actually happened and was recorded has grown exponentially
And that it is possible to almost perfectly "dub" false media for true recorded evidence and have it be undetectable w/o very sophisticated investigation--
I don't know how legitimate those reports are--I am not technically knowledgeable about any of that personally to know how easy or hard it is to manipulate media
But I know that some people have no problem misrepresenting the truth

So no matter what show up on those e-files--
If they were captured, if they ever existed
There will be some/plenty input from "experts" as to their credibility

Just as you have a POTUS who lives by lying and claiming his lies are "truth" yet decrys all evidence to the contrary is "faux news" from sources that are untrustworthy...
You will have plenty of conjecture that anything purported to be from Cohen's audio files is false...

Could this be the ultimate in last-ditch desperation, for the Republicans?

No, it's just typical foolishness.
