Pretty telling that POTUS is such a habitual LIAR that his counsel doesn't want him to sit for an interview out of fear he'll lie and/or contradict prior statements he's made.
What it brings into focus is Trump's apparent belief that if HE wants something to be "true", he can, by force of personality, make it so. We've seen this over and over and over with him.

Given the OBVIOUS & CONSTANT hatefulness & utter dishonesty of the BHO maladministration & the DIMocRATS Party, I'm fascinated that anyone has the temerity to question anything that our current President says/does.
I came to the conclusion a number of years ago that there is NOTHING so DISHONEST, IMMORAL, PREJUDICED & HATEFUL that the DNC/DNCC/DIMocRATS would not do to win any election.

Take a look at the change in tone and content of his conversation from 5-17 to today. He's gone gonzo off the deepen. Started as reasonably debating the situation from the Dem angle, and if you take the time to thumb through his posts, they get more biting and shrill as his frustration mounts. Additionally, I'd guess that the Dem Talking points are now directing him to be more forceful in the bomb dropping and drive by sniping as their position weakens.
If anyone wants to doubt that Trump is winning, take a look and witness the emotional meltdown yourself.

That's about exactly how I see it. However, better fit or not, I think this firing will be politically disastrous for Trump for the exact reasons you elucidate. Comey had, through circumstance and action, a level of bipartisan credibility.
The sharp knives are coming out and Mr. Trump has mighty thin skin. Hold onto your hats boys.

When was the last time we had a POTUS turtle up, fume for days, then fire the man investigating him? How'd that turn out?
My belief has been that there's a lot of "there" there in the Russian collusion mess. Might not reach Trump- might be confined to Page, Stone, Manafort, Flynn, or some combo, but I think it happened. I think law enforcement has been doing what they do: methodically building the case. I think this brings all that to a head. Guess we'll see. I kinda hope I'm wrong but I doubt it.

His problem now is that the special prosecutor's office (and for that matter the rule of law in general) doesn't operate on that principle; rather, the words that comprise our various laws and the Constitution actually possess meaning beyond Trumps sticky grasp; beyond his ability to basically bullshit his way through to a self-serving alternative-facts-based "truth" of his own liking and creation.
It's a microcosm for the whole conservative movement in the last decade: all y'all seem to think if you just yell loud enough and keep the circle-jerk going and stay in your news bubble you can just create a reality that's seperate from the observable, testable realities that folks normally operate within. While it apparently gives you comfort, it's actually very snowflaky if you think about it: reality hurts your precious feelers so you pitch a fit and spin, spin, spin. Again I can only offer this: golf clap.
Anyway, the moral and intellectual vacuousness of such an approach notwithstanding, it's also just fücking retarded. Circling back, for example A of this look no further than the fact that our POTUS cannot have a conversation that matters because he just plain lies too much and/or can't keep track of actual reality as it relates to his attempts to manufacture same.

Well, this is a good time to reflect on him being wrong about Manafort and Flynn.

That's because in addition to being a drug addled scumbag, he's a pathological liar. One need only read myriad times he's been caught lying on just about every topic he's smeared his feces on...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
The crazy thing is even if these traitors are proven guilty and go to jail, poo flinger, JellO will just say it is partisan and Trump is the one who should be in jail.
These libtards refuse to believe facts if it goes against their narrative.
They all have agendas, for JellO it is probably pot legalization and disability checks that forms his opinion?
