but when you compare director comey s testimony yesterday, which was quite compelling, believable and composed to the ways the president conducted himself today at the rose garden, i think james comey is going to win any credibility contest. what is your problem with how the president conducted himself today at the rose garden? this is a serious investigation, he was standing in quite a prestigious place, the rose garden and was asked if there were tapings, he sort of swintimated there were and said that investigation could be coming soon. there is not a reality show. this is the president of the united states with allegations of obstruction of justice taking place. the president did say he was 100% willing to testify under oath. will you call on the special counsel bob mueller to depose the president of the united
