      Do you have a link showing that a relationship between Mueller and Comey is what he was concerned about? Do you have any evidence that such a personal relationship exists? You're an evidence guy, right?

      "personal relationship" might be a bit much, but here's a perspective on the Ashcroft/Hospital episode:https://www.washingtonian.com/2013/05/30/forged-under-firebob-mueller-and-jim-comeys-unusual-friendship/ …

      given Washington Post article about "brothers in arms" and other similar articles, entirely reasonable for Trump and others to perceive that Comey and Mueller had personal relationship. Seems to me that they did.

      WaPo bases claim on 1) both men went to college in VA (!!! 😂😂😂 !!!) and 2) both threatened to resign in 2004 -- which FBI Director Chris Wray also did. Is the distinction that Wray went to college in CT? That's why he's not a "brother in arms"? Do you have any, um, evidence?

      the issue is whether Trump could reasonably think that Mueller and Comey had a personal relationship. The articles are evidence for that. pictures of Comey and Mueller together show that their connection was not simply being alumni of Virginia universities.

      Ohhhh pictures?!?!?! But by golly Mueller belonged to Trump's golf club. That's a FAR CLOSER relationship. You're being clownish. Not even Trump's lawyers would take this claim up.

      Again, I'm not attempting to argue that Mueller-Comey had disqualifying relationship - you're jumping to conclusions. I'm simply pointing out that Trump could reasonably be concerned about such relationship last June and considered options, before deciding to do nothing.

      And I'm laughing at my ass off that pointed to an article that 1) included one quote for one quote against 2) did not quote Trump's actual associates to substantiate that claim. I've seen better work from dimwitted college freshman.

      I took a quick look and was unable to locate any pictures of Mueller and Wray together, whereas numerous pictures of Comey and Mueller together show that their connection was not merely being both alumni of Virginia universities, as you pointlessly and incorrectly allege.pic.twitter.com/5cr4QJFl2Q

      I'm not alleging that. Your crack source did. You have now moved the goalposts, stating that it's not the hospital event per se, but that both had official positions. And yet ... so did Wray. Do you KNOW what Wray's position was? Do you KNOW how he interacted with theM?
