And he said he told him three times his name was cleared to. Comey can say no, here is what happened on february 14. You said this. I said this.

Here is a guy that was so dogged with Hillary Clinton investigation and out jason davis is when hes about to investigate his own party, he wants to spend time with his family. It just reeks. He might be running for governor in 2020 but why bolt when your country needs you . I dont know. It smells. That may haunt his political career.
