re: Trump lawyer: Comey leaked his memo day before tweets despite what a Comey said under oath

Likewise. You really think they would make an error like this? It's the rope-a-dope every time. This time last week you were wondering why trump would lie and say Comey told him he wasn't being investigated. Don't you get tired of going through this dance?

I thought comey testified today he did NOT tell the DOJ and rather just his friend and some folks at the FBI

Do you ever get tired of accusing me of the wrong things?

Comey said three times that Trump was not under investigation, yet refused to go public and say so like he did with HRC. (McCain may not be senile) Then he said that he didn't report the loyalty stuff because he didn't think it was anything other than a non DC person as POTUS regarding protocols. Then... he said he made memos because the President was a liar, yet he failed to report a obstruction which is a crime...He leaked the memos via his friend to the NYTimes so it would go to special counsel.
McCain may not have had dementia afterall. Comey admitted Lynch tried to obstruct HRC and let it slide.....
Who died and put Comey in charge of releasing classified material of convo with POTUS which would set off events leading to a special counsel, as he admitted under oath? IOW's POTUS was never in legal jeopardy but Comey was ensuring because he was fired by POTUS; he was setting POTUS up for legal jeopardy.

If your dynamite is a link to a google search where every link is referencing a memo written by Rod Rosenstein, you need new dynamite. It's not proving your point.

Mr. Comey described details of his refusal to pledge his loyalty to Mr. Trump to several people close to him
thats not a leak prior to trump's tweet?

I think you all are confusing Comey speaking about the meeting and leaking the memo.
These are 2 separate events.
It seems Trump's lawyer is also conflating the 2 events.
Still belies Comey's "woe is me" story that he originally wasn't going to release the content of the one-on-one meetings with the President but the Trump tweet left him no choice. That really doesn't jive when the press was full of information coming from Comey and/or his associates about the contents of those meetings (which could only come from Comey since the meetings were private).
Comey tries to present the timeline as I was content to keep quiet until Trumps tweet, but after that I just couldn't keep quiet anymore. In other words, Trump's tweet was the cause of my talking. Trump counters with Comey's version was put out to the press first and the tweet was a RESPONSE to that, not the CAUSE of it.
Trump's version of the cause and effect here is clearly the correct one and Comey's "awe shucks I wasn't going to say anything until Trump's mean tweet made me do it" act is bullshite.

you're grasping at straws if you're defending him providing this so his 'friend' could tell the NYT on May 11 ***BEFORE***
BEFORE
the trump memo.
again, spin that he didn't leak prior to getting 'upset' about the tweet.
careful, that article was published may 11.

I think Comey leaking the memo was him calling Trump's bluff about the tapes.
That's it.

I'm not defending Comey. I'm just telling you about all the facts that have been reported so far.
If you can find something where it says Comey leaked the memo before May 12th, by all means, I'll admit I am wrong.
You might need to go back and actually read what Trump's lawyer wrote.

so he had his friend call the NYT on May 11 and tell him IN DETAIL FROM MEMORY everything the memo said?
you are really playing dumb.
The NYT article on May 11 used the exact language that later showed up on the memo.
JUST COINCIDENCE RIGHT?
