Combative Corey Lewandowski Begrudgingly Affirms Mueller Report's Truth | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
Why are y’all using so many “if’s”?
@Greg Brogan now as to your claim i never answered your points. Look back and you will see i answered all your points but one which i will shortly. As to taking money from the military i said they can afford it. And the amount would be 1point 6% the others i have as well. Either you have a comprehension problem or you are a liar. Sense you amped this up i believe a liar. Back in a min.
@Greg Brogan international management? Really?
@Greg Brogan It’s not my place to tell you how to spend the precious hours and minutes of your life, but are you sure you want to waste much more of your time beating up on Little Gerry? Obviously he is the Energizer Bunny of pathological trolls. He just keeps going and going and going. Around and around in circles. But if you stop feeding the troll, he’ll eventually crawl back into the woodwork with the other cockroaches.
Where was CL’s lawyer to protect him, he instead got lawyers to protect Trump. He can be so screwed!! 😅😅😅

Donna his “counsel” is sitting right next to him. If you had watched he entire interview you would have known that.
@Coco C He stated those were the lawyers from the White House, not his personal lawyers. Yeah, I did watch it and paid attention hence my statement made.
If you or I were supposed to testify in any court and we refused, there would be a bench warrant for our arrests.
What’s the holdup? Arrest them.
RealDarin Loveland Show me the links.
ASMR touch White House “executive privilege” won’t allow it.
The holdup is who is actually is in charge of DOJ Its Bill Barr’s responsibility to actually charge him with a crime and we all know Barr doesn’t want Justice
Eric Holder? By the way, Congress can’t arrest people. They have no police.
@Benjamin Chevalier You are either a troll or an uninform person. The evidence is clear that criminal wrongdoing was taking place. I’ve read the so called “dossier” its about 90% accurate minus the sexual exploits. Obstruction? Conspiracy? Tarrif wars? Babies in cages? Self-dealing non-profit. Campaign violations? Michael Flynn? Indictments? Corrupt Cabinet members? Bribery of government officials through pardons? Shall l continue? The Presidency is an institution not a party or person. He violated his oath of office. His fidelity is towards America and the Constitution. Not Russia, not China, not the Saudis, not Israel, not North Korea. Leaders accept responsibility for all his/her subordinates under their command. He is Commander-in-Chief isn’t he? Or is he just playing the part?
What an embarrassment to the city of Lowell.
@Carolyn’s RV Life Try Europe. They are all screwed up honey. Our country ROCKS!
Richard L. T. 👆Rocks in your head 😩
@Richard L. T. Lay off the meth Dorothy.
I like it better, when the good part comes at the end of the interigation.
You mean interrogation? W/ such sharp spelling skills i’m sure you caught the part of the hearing where Nadler broke every house rule on the books too right?
@George Washington You’re making sure you get that point across, aren’t ya? So forget the crimes and lies this man is telling, while assisting the White House in doing the same. You’re deflecting to avoid facing the bigger problem… the White House is filled with criminals and liars. Just go ahead and let that slide right because hearing rules were broken. Hmm, makes sense.
@Jennifer W 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
As far as I am concerned all these people who aren’t testifying need to be charged with obstruction.
@Phil Cutler It’s obvious I am referring to a hypothetical enemy of any country that USA would have declarer war on.
Even if Russia is not officially an enemy of USA, Russia is USA’s biggest adversary right now geopolitically. No one hates USA more then Putin. Mitt Romney is the first one to tell you that.
Watch this interview with Mitt Romney from 2012 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCrebJAajCI
Including Lois Lehner and the rest of the Obama regime
+Nevada Scared Since Hillary Clinton, James Comey and their gang were not charged with obstruction of justice, nobody can be – they set the new standard.
5th amendment rights.
@starchildstrider James Comey never obstructed justice so it’s hard to charge some one for a crime they never have committed. No one has seriously even hinted that James Comey would have come close to do so.
Lewandowski admitted that he feels no obligation to tell the truth when being interviewed. Hence, anything the man has ever said to an interviewer, no matter the channel, has to be brought into question. He has confirmed himself as a liar.
For a guy that claims he’s draining the swamp, Trump sure seems to associate himself with a lot of seedy people. Of his various campaign managers, one is in prison and another is likely headed there. hummmm
@Phil Cutler For publicizing his own notes.
I think the content of the notes is a bit more important than the crime of making them public. The recommendation for charges is just smoke and mirrors trying to cover up the facts of what Trump did and said at the meeting (which is what is actually important here).
Did you watch the last half hour?
What did you think about him saying that he’s under no obligation to tell the truth in TV interviews? After hearing that, how can you tell when he’s telling the truth and when he’s lying? Does he speak in code to you?
Take off your blinders, he just told you that he’s a liar. You really think that’s rockin’? Jezzz
@Elaine Johnson And that is just the tip of the iceberg.
@Phil Cutler Wow, that really advances the conversation. Got any more witticisms? Just another freakin’ troll.
@Scott Ryals :-p
Barry Berke’s 30 minutes of questioning (PBS) to Corey L. are a prime example that fox interview type answers sound stupid. Mr. Lewandowski’s attempts to kerfluffle Berke with personal attacks were met with machine like indifference. shades of star trek BORG.
Womp womp.
Who elected Berke?
@Mikevdog Are you objecting to him or his questions? He’s a staff lawyer who has every right to question the witness under the rules. Don’t like it? Too bad.
@Scott RyalsProves that democrats think their above the law , and make up their on rules and also when have a sleaze lawyer do your talking shows your not worthy of your position. . Typical democrat
@Larry wester Your ignorance of history is showing Larry. It’s a standard practice that is used regularly by both sides.
But, tell me, what did you think of Lewandowski saying that he’s under no obligation to tell the truth when being interviewed on live television?
Now that he’s admitted that he’s OK with lying to the public, how do you know when he’s telling the truth? Because he says so? If you buy that I’ve got a bridge you might be interested in buying.
Smart. They saved the staff lawyer questions for when C. Lewandowski was already emotionally drained and exhausted.
He was more likely to falter in his cover up. Great work.
Pontius Pilate and DJT, two people that don’t know the meaning of TRUTH!
Oh! What A Tangled Web We Weave When First We Practice To Deceive
Corey is taking the bullets for Trump! So sad for him. He should’ve learned a few things from Michael Cohen.
That bullet went right through Corey’s thin headed LOW IQ skull and went straith to Trump’s dark heart. Donald J Trump WILL die in prison and so will Trump’s 3 oldest children and Jared Kushner!
+Hmoob Channel Oh, that’s a new one! What do you people think is going to happen to your life as you’ve always known it, if the Democrats take over?
I was just watching histories of the Watergate scandal and Richard Nixons’ coverups. History repeats itself first as tragedy then as farce…
I disagree with having councel go first. Lewandowski giving counsel ammo throughout the day to use in cross examination at the end is a better play.
Lewandowski and Porter are both fighting over Hope Hicks.
So many lies by Trump and his people! No, it is NOT OK to Lie to America! I want the White House fumigated!
Like a “REAL MOB BOSS”….. tRump consistently has OTHER PEOPLE “pull the trigger”
This is not democracy. This is not how the founding fathers wished the constitution to work.
Lol the next Democrat president is gonna have so much power
Thanks.
So…. why wasn’t he arrested then and there? He’s guilty of obstruction of justice… why is he a free man?
+GREY E CAT Do you people realize what will happen if the Democrats take over because you supported their agenda? Do you know what will happen?
