Trump told the Russians in that infamous, closed-door (except to Russian media!) meeting that James Comey was a “nut job,” and that firing him should ease the pressures he had been facing regarding the Russia-Trump probe.

That's a confession.

Meanwhile, Trump-until-I-die! loyalist Jeffrey Lord, who for some reason is given the time of day on CNN, defended everything Trump said to the Russians, including his accidental leaking of highly classified intel gained from Israel regarding ISIS, prompting Anderson Cooper to exclaim:

If he took a dump on his desk, you would defend it.

Lord laughed uproariously, as befitting a partisan, yes, nut job with no code of ethics.

Cooper later pointlessly apologized for his true observation.
