Rudy Giuliani is definitely trying to “hurry this process” along …
Keep doing interviews Rudy, we’ll keep listening. Mueller will keep taking notes.
Rudy Giuliani Offers a New Explanation of Why President Trump Fired Jim Comey
by Eric Tucker / AP; Time.com — May 3, 2018
[...]
Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s new attorney, said in an interview on Fox News that Trump fired Comey last year [in May 2017] because Comey would not state “that he wasn’t a target” of the special counsel’s Russia investigation. He said Trump felt that he was treated worse than Hillary Clinton, who was publicly cleared of criminal wrongdoing at an unusual FBI headquarters news conference in July 2016.
“He fired Comey because Comey would not, among other things, say that he wasn’t a target of the investigation,” Giuliani said. “He’s entitled to that. Hillary Clinton got that. Actually, he couldn’t get that.”
Comey told The Associated Press in an interview this week that he saw telling Trump privately — at a January 2017 Trump Tower meeting — that he wasn’t under investigation as a way to lower the “temperature” of an otherwise tense encounter before the president took office.

A few questions:
Does an “innocent man” obsess about FBI Investigations, the way Trump does — despite assurances that “he wasn’t under investigation”?
When that same ‘not so innocent’ man, changes his story from “Comey’s poor handling of Clinton’s email” as the reason, to “this Russia thing” on National Television — is that an indication of his “corrupt intent” — to end this Russian Investigation BEFORE the evidence got to him? [before a Special Counsel would be appointed.]
Trump’s corrupt intent is what must be proven, in order to prove his Obstruction of Justice.
A few more questions:
Does an innocent man change his story so many times — like he’s trying to “find the best alibi” possible? Like he’s trying on different suits before a party, celebrating his lifetime of achievements.
Is there any “corrupt intent” indicated in these ‘confessional words’ to his Russian confidants, one day after the Comey firing:
"I just fired the head of the FBI. He was crazy, a real nut job," Trump said, according to the Times. "I faced great pressure because of Russia. That's taken off."

There was no mention of Hillary “emails”, or Hillary-like “assurances from Comey” then, at that celebratory day-after meeting. Just the unvarnished ‘trump truth’ …
A final question:
Would Trump be so obsessed about this “this Russia thing”, if he hadn’t done anything wrong in the first place? If he didn’t have a ‘world of corruption’ to hide — from the prying eyes of The Press?
… in his lifetime of personal conquests and imagined achievements?
