Trump can defend why he asked Comey to drop the Flynn investigation...

"I asked him that as a test. If he had said yes I would have fired him on the spot."

I know, it's a simple minded 8 year old kid's excuse but isn't that what you'd expect from Trump?

What do you bet that he brings this up at some point and his dim followers parade about proudly proclaiming this as proof of Trump's honor and innocence?

he can't get into the mind of someone with principles - even if for 8 year olds - and making this spin is something he cannot do. Or he just can't think creatively.
