    In “smoking gun” tape, when FBI was to probe Watergate break-in, Nixon ordered that the FBI be called and told, “Stay the hell out of this."

        As stated, Comey was notorious for keeping notes. Especially when it came to dealings with agent orange. All trump has is his word.

        Besides Comey knew Donald Trump better than DT knows himself. Comey redeems himself?? Only if Hillary takes the WH.

        Mister Trump, being not a fan of history, is thus doomed to repeat it.

        The problem is the GOP of 2017 lacks a Barry Goldwater or Howard Baker to challenge @POTUS . #manchurianpresident

        Comey doesn't need it contemporaneous notes always hold up in court when it's an FBI official.

        But that was back when there were men (and women) of integrity in the @HouseGOP and @SenateGOP. Now, this is just another passing cloud.

        Exactly afraid of this too. But CNN's now reporting that Republicans coming back from recess are uncharacteristically quiet tonight! Hope!

        The parallels to Watergate are truly stunning. Talk about not learning from history and repeating it!
