And on and on it goes. A goodly portion of our federal government is now devoted towards knocking down the conspiracy theories of a delusional nut who has surrounded himself with other delusional nuts.

[img] The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, asked the Justice Department this weekend to publicly reject President Trump’s assertion that President Barack Obama ordered the tapping of Mr. Trump’s phones, senior American officials said on Sunday. Mr. Comey has argued that the highly charged claim is false and must be corrected, they said, but the department has not released any such statement.

Mr. Comey made the request on Saturday after Mr. Trump leveled his allegation on Twitter. Mr. Comey has been working to get the Justice Department to knock down Mr. Trump’s claim because there is no evidence to support it and it insinuates that the F.B.I. broke the law, the officials said.[/img]

Mind you, James Comey certainly has personal experience in letting the public know about FBI investigations involving presidential candidates, so it's not clear why he's begging Justice to reject Trump's story when he could just as easily pipe up and do it himself. Perhaps it didn't work out for him that last time, or perhaps our various federal agencies are engaged in negotiations as to which one of them will bear the brunt of the so-called president's wrath when they publicly note that Florida Man is, in fact, making up stories.

Hey, remember when Donald Trump read a speech off a screen and pundits fell over themselves asking whether or not this was, at long last, the moment the mean-spirited, fact-averse bungler and racist propagandist turned presidential? It seems so long ago. Days, even.

--------------------------

Trump’s claim about Obama wiretapping him is indefensible. So his aides aren’t even defending it.
