Trump says he'd testify on Comey claims, but won't talk tapes - NY Daily News
My favorite was Trump saying "I didn't say that and even if I did it was ok."

That really cracked me up. He can't even answer a question. And he's not playing poker, he's just flat-out evasive and dishonest.

I get it - you cannot admit being wrong. That much is obvious.

But here is a short discussion of the synonyms of vindicate..


Synonym Discussion of vindicate

]exculpate, absolve, exonerate, acquit, vindicate mean to free from a charge. exculpate implies a clearing from blame or fault often in a matter of small importance. ⟨exculpating himself from the charge of overenthusiasm⟩ absolve implies a release either from an obligation that binds the conscience or from the consequences of disobeying the law or committing a sin. ⟨cannot beabsolved of blame⟩ exonerate implies a complete clearance from an accusation or charge and from any attendant suspicion of blame or guilt. ⟨exonerated by the investigation⟩ acquit implies a formal decision in one's favor with respect to a definite charge. ⟨voted to acquit the defendant⟩ vindicate may refer to things as well as persons that have been subjected to critical attack or imputation of guilt, weakness, or folly, and implies a clearing effected by proving the unfairness of such criticism or blame. ⟨her judgment was vindicated⟩

NowI know this may well zoom past you but take a look...hope springs eternal .

He seems to be ignoring all the facts that came out in the hearing.

True, who would want to play poker with someone that does not believe the rules apply to them.

What were the alleged overt acts of "interference"?

Really all this chatter and bluster from Trump is irrelevant.

Mueller will get to the truth. He's assembled an extremely impressive team of criminal prosecutors to investigate. Why would he recruit an arsenal of this strength if he did not expect he would need it?

I don't think Trump is even paying attention, but when he does, we should expect a new front in his war on investigations. If not knowing what Comey was investigating drove him nuts, the Mueller team will make him even crazier.

The truth is out there.

The purported actions were supposedly covert. Why would you ask for "overt" actions?

Nobody lies like Trump. The man is a professional liar. This country isn't his business and I will be glad to see his kids do something else, other than politics.

Excellent, looks like the right man is on the case and it looks like they are not going to leave any stone unturned, as it should be.
So do you think trump will attack Mueller and his investigators, would he actually be that stupid?
