How the media operates in 3 acts…
Act 1: Geraldo Rivera weighs in:
News Flash, @realDonaldTrump hoping @JamesComeyFBI cuts @MikeFlynn some slack because he is a 'good man' is not close to #Obstruction

News flash. @DonaldJTrumpJr admits @POTUS asked #Comey to back off on Flynn investigation. Also, he takes legal advice from @GeraldoRivera. https://t.co/NifCvjCW8z

So is this acknowledgement that this happened, @DonaldJTrumpJr? https://t.co/llJCAJJjoV

Donald Trump, Jr. basically just confirmed that the Comey memo is real. Independent sources had already done so, but he just did as well. https://t.co/QsqlEk4KUg

You realize you just confirmed the Comey memo right? You guys are so stupid Jesus Christ. All these wounds are self-inflicted. Keep talking.

They can’t help themselves.
Update:
