i mean, i would rather he be upset that this 'golden showers thing' was used to justify a FISA warrant, but beggars can't be choosersJames Comey, the fired FBI director, is using his book - published Tuesday- to make bombshell claims about the president
'There’s no way I would let people pee on each other around me. No way,' he told Comey in a phone call days before his inauguration
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... truth.html
Former FBI Director James Comey blasts President Donald Trump as unethical and 'untethered to truth' and calls his leadership of the country 'ego driven and about personal loyalty' in a forthcoming book.
He sensationally reveals how the president wanted him to investigate the notorious claims he ordered 'golden showers' at a Moscow hotel because 'it bothered him if there was 'even a one per cent chance' his wife, Melania, thought it was true'.
Comey says Trump called the tape the 'golden showers thing', and that he wondered about the state of the president's marriage as there was 'zero chance' his own wife would believe such a claim against him.
grippingHe also says he made a conscious effort to check the president's hand size, saying they were 'smaller than mine, but did not seem unusually so.'
i'll bet you doComey writes that he regrets his approach and some of the wording he used in his July 2016 press conference in which he announced the decision not to prosecute Clinton.
He writes that he himself can be '“stubborn, prideful, overconfident and driven by ego.”
He famously chided Clinton for being 'extremely careless' in her handling of her classified email in a June 2016 press conference.
But he says he believes he did the right thing by going before the cameras and making his statement, noting that the Justice Department had done so in other high profile cases.
Every person on the investigative team, Comey writes, found that there was no prosecutable case against Clinton and that the FBI didn't find that she lied under its questioning.
The parts about Clinton will be heavily scrutinized by her supporters - and by the failed presidential candidate herself, whose bitter public condemnations of Comey, he writes, have resonated with him.
'I have read she has felt anger toward me personally, and I’m sorry for that. I’m sorry that I couldn’t do a better job explaining to her and her supporters why I made the decisions I made.'
But he says that he stands by his handling of the Clinton probe and that he had only two regrets.
One was calling her and her staff's handling of classified information 'extremely careless' because it sounded like the criminal burden for charges of mishandling intelligence, that she had been 'grossly negligent'.
i seeAnd he says his family accused him of 'Seacresting' his announcement early in July 2016 that Clinton would not be charged by building up a tease to her being cleared instead of starting with it.
Comey said his wife and daughters voted for Clinton and even participated in the Women's March the day after Trump's Inauguration.
He also explained he was so sure Clinton would win the election he worried that if he didn't publicly announce the re-opening her email investigation in October 2016 following the discovery of emails from her on Anthony Weiner's laptop, it would make her seem 'illegitimate'.
'I believed it was my duty to inform Congress that we were restarting the investigation,' Comey writes.
He adds: 'It is entirely possible that, because I was making decisions in an environment where Hillary Clinton was sure to be the next president, my concern about making her an illegitimate president by concealing the restarted investigation bore greater weight than it would have if the election appeared closer or if Donald Trump were ahead in all polls.'.
fascinatingHowever he unleashes another bombshell on Loretta Lynch, President Barack Obama's last attorney general, revealing that her independence was in doubt as she oversaw the Clinton probe.
While the probe was under way in early 2016, he says, 'unverified' information from a 'classified source' was obtained by the government which 'would undoubtedly have been used by political opponents to cast serious doubt on the attorney general’s independence in connection with the Clinton investigation'.
He considered asking for a special prosecutor so she was not involved as she was 'half-in, half-out' and 'tortured' by the probe.
Lynch became notorious for her conversation with Bill Clinton in her own plane on the tarmac at Phoenix Airport as the investigation came to a conclusion.
But Comey says it was that and the classified material which caused him to step forward and become the face of the investigation when he announced Clinton was cleared.
And he also tells how he was aware for at least two and up to three weeks later that year that Anthony Weiner's laptop 'might have some connection' to the Clinton probe.
