Keith Olbermann: James Comey Will Bring Trump Down
“So, What About Those Oval Office Tapes?”
In the new installment of “The Resistance” Keith Olbermann makes the case that Donald Trump is finished. Olbermann’s theory is based on Trump’s own tweets threatening James Comey with tapes of their conversations.
“It is a one witness impeachment trial now waiting to happen,” Olbermann said about Comey’s forthcoming testimony.
“Either Comey is lying – and lying and lying and lying or Trump’s presidency is already over and we just don’t know whether the Republicans will bury it soon in hopes of recovering by the midterms or if they will wait for the possibility that Democrats will get to do it early in 2019.”
Olbermann laid out several scenarios for how this could happen. But the focus on Trump’s own tweet is the most interesting part of Olbermann’s theory.
“We have that stupid tweet he stupidly sent to stupidly threaten Comey to stupidly make himself feel better,” Olbermann said.
“Until and unless Trump can now prove the tapes vindicate him or until and unless Trump can now prove the tapes don’t exist and never have existed, the Republicans in Congress have to assume that there are tapes,” Olbermann noted.
