'I guess the love is gone': Ex-FBI director Comey responds to Rudy Giuliani's suggestion that he mig

Former FBI director James B. Comey on Tuesday responded to Trump lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani’s recent broadsides against him, saying that his view of the former U.S. attorney whose work once inspired him had “changed over time,” and Giuliani seemed to feel the same way.

“I guess the love is gone,” Comey joked. “I used to be one of his star prosecutors. It appears I’m not anymore.”

Comey’s comments came during a wide-ranging conversation with reporter Carol D. Leonnig at a Washington Post Live event. He was responding to comments Giuliani had made on various television appearances, including the assertion that one reason President Trump might not agree to an interview with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III is that the special counsel is more likely to believe Comey’s version of events than Trump’s.

“People do things like lie,” Giuliani said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.” “People lie. Could Comey be lying? You’re damn right he could be lying. ... And we’re going to walk ourselves into a trap like that?”

If Comey is lying, discussing the matter with Mueller isn't a trap. You tell the truth, it contradicts Comey, and you're safe because you told the truth. Where's the trap? How does a lying Comey generate a trap?

How this moron ever functioned as a US attorney is beyond me.
