am too close to james comey, agents of the fbi said they were joined at the hip. here s the thing, one of the issues is you want the public perception and people to have faith in the process. if you have someone with that type of relationship with the star, key witness, the only person other than trump knows about the conversations, if there s the slightest bit of impropriety you have to step down. the last question on obstruction. it says it must be a corrupt act. there are five things identified by the statute as a cropped act, lies, threats, bribes, destroying documents, and altering evidence. comey alleged that none of those things. under the statute how could it be obstruction? i will give you credit with that. i don t think his testimony is there to say there s a clear case of obstruction. it s ambiguous. is not even close is a? there s no way this is obstruction of justice. his testimony is clear.
