President Donald Trump on Monday night omitted any mention of FBI Director James Comey’s testimony before the House Intelligence Committee, opting instead to rehash talking points from the campaign trail.
At a rally in Louisville, Kentucky, Trump promised to “deliver amazing things for the citizens of Kentucky and the United States.”
He brought up his upset win in the Electoral College; said the situation in North Korea is “disgraceful and not smart, not smart at all”; and pledged to “drain the swamp of government corruption in Washington, D.C.,” just days after he nominated yet another Goldman Sachs alumnus to a senior position in his administration.
Trump urged Republican and Democratic senators alike to “swiftly approve” Neil Gorsuch, his nominee to fill the empty seat on the Supreme Court. Trump praised Gorsuch as a “justice who will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Missing from Trump’s remarks was any mention of Comey’s long-awaited testimony confirming the existence of an ongoing FBI investigation into whether members of Trump’s presidential campaign coordinated with the Russian government during the 2016 campaign.
Trump also neglected to mention Comey’s assertion that the FBI has “no information” to support Trump’s unsubstantiated claims that President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower during the 2016 campaign.
“We have no information to support those tweets,” Comey told the House Intelligence Committee. “And we looked carefully inside the FBI.”
I am sure there was also no mention of how many Kentuckians’s lives have been saved by the ACA.
He was so pathetic, going on and on about that beautiful day he got elected by an EC landslide.
You are a pathetic old man, a fat bald, stupid, lying old man.
Trump is rapidly turning into “that weird, crazy guy who sometimes lives in that big White House, says and tweets crazy shit, and the rest of the time goes to Florida, plays golf, and says and tweets more crazy shit.”
He’s being marginalized by his own party. He doesn’t matter. Yes, they will protect him as long as they need him, but if you think about it, unless he releases the nukes or declares martial law, he’s a rich, crazy uncle jetting between care homes. He’s crippling the Presidency for a long time. He’s living proof that the country can get by without a functioning president.
Also, oh, dear Lord.
Also, also, Ivanka’s moving into the West Wing.
Webster’s will re-do their entry for “Whistlin past the graveyard” with a picture of Trump on this momentous day. The caption will read “The first time in American history a sitting President was literally indicted by his own FBI and DOJ for treason”.
Whatta great day for real Americans!
Remember how long it took Christie’s numbers to slide?
Drumpf will eclipse him in short order.
