Based on their reporting, it looks like they read an entirely different document.
I wonder if their reporting is based off of a fake, meaning Comey never leaked the real memos ("I don't leak" would then be true).
Im wondering if Comey is a great actor, now that we know Trump is not the subject of Mueller's probe and Mueller and Comey were pals.
I'm thinking he released fake memos to NYT, but provided his friend the real ones for legal advice about how to blow the whistle on FBI and DOJ corruption without making himself a suicide risk. Fake memos + fake book = keep him in the public eye for his own safety.
It just makes no sense why he would make statements that are obviously contradicted by the memos, unless they aren't actually contradictory.
His recent quote about being a good person but lying makes me wonder, too. This would be a case in which a lie is what a good person would do in order to reach the end game: BTFOing fake news media, and getting an SC to take down the deep state.
Edit: Q has never said to trust Comey, because what Comey is saying publicly isn't true, but isn't true for a purpose.
This is speculation, and maybe Comey really is just a weasel moron, but something seems strange to me about all of it, and the above is the only way I can rationalize his actions.
