Trump has pardoned Scooter Libby whose crime was lying to the FBI. James Comey was the justice department official with oversight over Libby’s case in 2005, during George W’s reign.
“I don’t know Mr. Libby, but for years I have heard that he has been treated unfairly. Hopefully, this full pardon will help rectify a very sad portion of his life.” ~D. Trump
This dotard move is part of Donald Trump’s agenda to attack James Comey’s credibility. It is also a blatant attempt to demonstrate, to those who are questioned by Robert Mueller, that there are no consequences for lying to the FBI.
Will this backfire? By pardoning a liar, one who lied to the FBI no less, isn’t Trump obstructing justice… again? Isn’t this indirectly witless witness tampering? Isn’t this just another example of Trump’s abuse of power? These are rhetorical questions; I don’t need them answered.
He’s an Idiot.

Calls Comey a liar. Pardons a man convicted of lying. What’s he setting up here?

Makes me think that someday I too might be president… if I team up with Putin.
