House Safety
From all reports Trump may feel safe when it came to the House Intel Committee.
Republican Rep. Trey Gowdy said that James Comey assessment of the House Judiciary findings was unfair.
“I have more confidence in executive branch investigations than I do congressional,” he said as he responded to Comey calling the findings a wreck.
“When you start with a conclusion, which Adam Schiff did in March of 2017, you have evidence of collusion and then you never ever share it with anyone,” Gowdy said. “That investigation is not likely to turn out well.”
“Congress is not well-equipped to investigate crime,” Gowdy said. “I have complete confidence in Michael Horowitz, who’s the inspector general — that’s who investigated Andy McCabe and then he made a referral to the Department of Justice.”
He continued “I trust Mr. Horowitz to investigate. I’ve never accused Jim Comey of committing a crime. I’ve accused him of doing somethings that I don’t agree with. But in terms of accusing someone of a crime, a member of Congress should not do that.”
Gowdy along with many of his colleagues and the House Intel Committee throw their support behind the President.
Gowdy may still have his doubts, but that wasn’t fully known. The idea of allowing the Executive Branch to investigate the matter could be another way to vindicate Trump.
What one has to ask what was the true purposes to have the Executive Branch investigate the matter if any?
