And on. And you think of okay, whats the cancer on this presidency . And i have a theory about that, what the cancer on this presidency is, which i will be announcing in the next hour. And therefore, we will all watch. Thanks, rachel. Thanks, lawrence. Well, President Trump lashes out. We all know that. And he has been doing that for a very long time. Probably since childhood. He started lashing out at me personally six years o when i called him a liar as soon as he opened his mouth about president obamas bih certificate.

Testify under oaths about conversations between trump and comey. He said you said you hoped the Flynn Investigation i didnt say that. So he lied about that . Well, i didnt say that. I mean, i will tell you i didnt say that. Trump then denied ever asking comey to pledge loyalty to him. Did he ask for a pledge of loyalty from you . Thats another thing he said. No, he did not. So if he said those things under oath, would you be willing to testify under oath to give your version . 100 . 100 . Trump agreeing to be deposed by special Counsel Robert Mueller in the investigation. Its incredible. Investigators have now sent letters to comey and the white house.
