It wasn't as simple as we're seeing with the president and comey where it seems to be self-serving but still the republicans saying that we have to look at. that could have been obstruction while at the same time saying everything comey says about the president is nonsense. how can you believe those two things? >> i don't think you can. and frankly, i don't think loretta lynch discussion here is going to have a whole lot of legs. i would defer to my friend ron who has got a lot more political sensibility and experience on this than i do but as i look at this i don't think that. >> but it's got...

Director comey, assuming that everything comey said about their private conversation is true. still, it doesn't lay out a case for obstruction of justice. the president in that regard is in the clear. he never asked director comey to stop the probe into alleged or purported with russian collusio collusion. he asked for compassion for a war hero, general michael flynn whose life was destroyed and can't make a living now. having spent the time, six weeks with donald trump -- i saw his compassion especially as it was directed towards me. he could have said i was fired. instead he said -- he's a c...

Agent and senior fellow at the foreign policy research institute. gentlemen, what did you make of that testimony? i thought he was powerful in defending the fbi, which he served his whole life. your thoughts. >> i agree, chris. i thought you heard the most emotion in his voice during that portion of his testimony. and, you know, it's because the things thathe white house said about comey and the fbi just weren't true, demonstrably. clint will speak to this, but i have friends who work there, and they said, look, nobody agreed with everything comey did. a lot of people had a problem with the wa...
