President Trump said Friday that former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was a liar and “controlled by” former FBI Director James Comey after release of a report accusing McCabe of being dishonest under oath.
“DOJ just issued the McCabe report – which is a total disaster. He LIED! LIED! LIED!” Trump tweeted after the release of a report from the Justice Department’s nonpartisan inspector general.
“McCabe was totally controlled by Comey – McCabe is Comey!! No collusion, all made up by this den of thieves and lowlifes!” Trump tweeted.

The inspector general report said McCabe “lacked candor” on four separate occasions, including three times while under oath, regarding his decision to authorize leaks for an October 2016 article in the Wall Street Journal.

I know people are making fun of this, but they shouldn’t. https://t.co/tdBCTB0Ztp

All I’m saying is: yes, most of his tweets are ridiculous, but the tone has changed. And while I get the need to deal with it through dark humor, I think he’s turned some kind of emotional corner that shouldn’t be dismissed lightly. https://t.co/ekUPtoiSf1

As usual, there are only two possibilities.
1. She’s a ruthless samurai who will say whatever she has to, even knowing it’s wrong to do so
Or
2. She somehow believes what she’s saying because she has no grasp of logic or evidence
Either way: awful. pic.twitter.com/OL1NIlMzCA— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) April 13, 2018
