Cuomo Dismisses Comey Bombshell About Loretta Lynch as ‘Political Tribalism’

Via Newsbusters:

On Friday’s CNN New Day, co-host Chris Cuomo attacked Republicans for being justifiably disturbed by James Comey’s revelation on Thursday that former Attorney General Loretta Lynch attempted to interfere in the FBI investigation into Hillary’s Clinton’s e-mails during the 2016 campaign: “..they say it is really about President Obama’s attorney general Loretta Lynch and why she tried to, in their terms, obstruct that investigation. That was their big take away from yesterday and that tells you everything about the political tribalism at play right now.”

The disappointed morning show host ranted:

When [Senator Richard] Burr said, “Hey, I want to talk to you about Loretta Lynch and her wanting to call it an investigation, a matter,” and the GOP in chorus like Shakespeare all saying, “Ooh, that could be obstruction.” And Paul Ryan saying, “Well the president, yeah he ordered people out of the room, but he is new to this.” Didn’t he [Trump] get what he needed most of all? In a political process, his party is behind him. The facts be damned.

Fellow CNN anchor John King admitted a day earlier that the media was not going to cover the Loretta Lynch revelation.
