Jared better watch his back.Trump joked that he felt Jared had become more famous than him and he was worried about that.
But he'll get asked questions like
Do you think Trump pressured you in anyway?
Do you think Trump was trying to obstruct justice by asking you to call off the Flynn investigation?
Is he just going to confirm nor deny it.
BOOM!
Didn't Comey already say at the Senate thing a couple of months ago that he wasn't aware of any interference into the investigation? Something like that?
Ugh.
The media have been hyping this up to record levels, so i suspect a lot of people are going to be disappointed. They've been using phrases like "Washington's Superbowl" to describe it.
Some people have gone way overboard. People on places like Reddit have been saying they'll be taking the day of work to watch.
Was Trump out of characters to use "I" as the first word?
That question was related to officials at the DOJ interfering and not Trump.
Trump supporters have been lying when they keep saying that Comey himself admitted that there was no interfering by Trump at a previous hearing, when the video clearly states he only mentions the DOJ officials and not Trump.
Seems to be issues putting the video on here but here's the link

That's it, thanks.
I know mate, it's so very sad.
Yet again just when you thought he couldn't get any lower.................
As I said yesterday there is no limit to how low this man could go. He really is the most despicable man on the planet. It just makes me sick to read things like this.
for Jared
Just shows you his mentality. it's all a show to him.
I'd buy him all the pints he wants if he offered to make another season of The Wire or a spin-off.

I agree mate, it's without question the greatest thing ever to be shown on TV. Absolute genius from start to finish. Apparently "The Corner" is very good too but I have yet to get to watch it.
Truth. And, when you think about it, pretty depressing when Simon put together such a great insight into the decrepit underside of America, only to see a fool in real life exploiting all of that desperation depicted in it to feed his insatiable appetite for praise and dominance.
Trump: "Stopping Qatar could mean the end of any form of terrorism".
Jeez, he's advertising for arms like he's selling candy to children.
Then comes the "false" news of $100bn arms deal to Saudi.
Now German Foreign Minister accuse him of starting an arms race in that region.

It's like reading a real life spin off for 'War Dogs' movie.
Who knew terrorism and the troubles in the Middle East were so complicated?
Obviously, only I can solve them though.

I will never understand how this man is 'running' the most powerful country in the world. Even his own wife is finding it difficult to keep up the charade. I'll be absolutely amazed if either his presidency or marriage remains intact before the 4 years is up.
As much as people might have hated the Obamas (who from an outsiders perspective are easily the best and coolest Prez and FL in recent times), I can't believe they see this as an improvement over the last 8 years. He really is a clueless buffoon.

Because he's a salesman who managed to effectively con a frustrated, easily led segment of the population into voting for him.
Are the American populace still riding the crest of his wave or are they beginning to wake up and smell the coffee??

To answer you... some are. Some are realizing that their "protest vote" was a huge feck up. Some though (like my uncle) are putting Trump flags in their yards as a show of support
Most who voted for him still support him since they are being spoonfed daily propaganda on Fox News that he is a victim of a witch hunt. My parents are staunch Trump supporters so I use them as a barometer of how his core voters perceive him. When you live in a self-reinforcing echo chamber of views, its difficult to step back and see what is actually going on.
Then I'm guessing it will take something monumental for them to realize that he is not all that he is cracked up to be. Are the media focusing on the dynamic between him and his wife?
Totally off subject but I wonder how much Thani's sandals cost?Trump: "Stopping Qatar could mean the end of any form of terrorism".
There are a core group who support him that are basically brainwashed by right wing media. There are another group who supported him because they are working class and thought he would provide jobs, as well as another smaller group who supported him because they weren't big on Hillary. The latter two groups will definitely think twice if things continue to go downhill. His poll numbers are around 36/37% right now, so there's a good chance about 3-7% of his election support has already eroded.
If you look at George W. Bush, per Gallup, his 2nd term average approval rating was 37% with a low of 25%. It hovered in the mid 30s with Iraq going to shit then dived to the low when the economy went tits up.
A lot of those same people are the ones hanging in there for Trump. They're baked in... as a southerner, I think of it as those folks view politics as they do college football... he's their team and they're gonna support him regardless.

If you look up all you can find about group and group sociology you find all the patterns of the Trump voters there. My group is great and does everything right... and the other group stinks...
The father of my son and some of his family are part of that "tribe" - so I just have to go to my facebook to see all the propaganda... bible belt, so called Christians (I am grown up with catholic schools and nuns - l do not believe but this believe is far from the church and verses I learned), gun lovers, rednecks...
They even think they are smarter than all this guys with education...

Yes. Going to college actually makes you less intelligent, according to them.
