Well no. I choose not to run around in a circle with my hair on fire.

You can choose your own method of dealing with life.

Imply = Strongly suggest the truth or existence of (something not expressly stated).

Lie = Marked by or containing untrue statements.

Trump said Comey better hope there are no tapes of talks,

Where is the untrue statement.

I'm done... Rage on.

You better hope I have not slept with your wife though...or had Dennis Rodman fondle you balls in your sleep. Not saying that I have, not saying that i have not either.... You know what Im saying? *wink* *wink*. You dont mind if i dub thee fondleballs from hereon do you? ;).
(point here is : I am not lying... or am I? Oh man, its turtles all the way down)

Trump isn't a liar. He's worse- he's an astounding bullshit artist-

Frankfurt’s key observation is that the liar, even as he or she might spread untruth, inhabits a universe where the distinction between truth and falsehood still matters. The bullshitter, by contrast, does not care what is true or not. By his or her bluffing, dissimulation, and general dishonesty, the bullshit artist works to erase the very possibility of knowing the truth. For this reason, bullshit is more dangerous than lies, since it erodes even the possibility of truth existing and being found.

Is this the "Roger wants to see you in his office look"?

That is not the purpose of the tweet. The purpose of the tweet is to rally his followers in an attempt to smear Comey. What Trump did there was to insinuate that IF there were tapes then something bad for Comey would be on them. It is a win-win lie for Trump, therefor ... the fucker lies. Alot.
Havent you noticed? Trump cares shit about rules proceedings intelligence and even the law .. He is on a constant rallying campaign. Constant. You should be worried dude.

You seem under the impression that pcgeek11 was actually looking for an explanation.

This is why liberals tend to come off worse than they should against complete degenerates.

He didn't even imply that he taped him.

As an example of why that is, buckshot & co would lie as a matter of habit, and liberals would try to correct him as if he made a mistake.

First, three CNN journalists who worked on a now-retracted story about Russia and a top Trump adviser are leaving the network.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...n-in-fallout-from-retracted-russia-story.html

Now, CNN producer John Bonifield is caught on film admitting that the network's constant coverage of the Trump-Russia narrative is "mostly bullshit" and "the president is probably right to say CNN is witch-hunting him"

Aww, I thought you were gonna report on the actual "fake news" like when they speculated all kinds of garbage about that missing airplane for 6 months.

Trump didn't imply that he taped anybody though. You are implying that you may have slept with his wife.

Riddle me this, two people in the room Comey and Trump. Take away Comey and who does that leave?

Need to phone a friend?
What you're forgetting is that some of these interactions happened over the phone. This is petty.

Given his prior comments him saying that this was a nothing burger is itself a nothing burger.

Nice job quoting "nothing burger" without mentioning anything he said in the article. By "nothing burger" he means that he doubts it will result in Trump's impeachment, because, though he believes there was likely collusion, he doesn't think there will ever be "irrefutable audiotape or videotape evidence" and he believes the GOP in Congress will never impeach him on anything short of that, including for obstruction. So, to be clear: he supports the ongoing investigation and believes there was likely collusion. He just thinks that all the attention on something that will likely not result in removal of Trump from office is a distraction from other important issues like healthcare. I happen to agree with him but that doesn't mean I think there was no wrongdoing here. I think there likely was.

CNN could use a few pointers from FOX news. Fair and balanced coverage vs. 24x7 "get Trump!!" and trying to get revenge for Hillary's loss.

Kinda funny how the 'ethics in journalism' people lap up anything O'Keefe defecates....

You must have forgot, Fox dropped that slogan. Kissing trump's ass constantly as Fox does is not balanced.
