Comey says he'd have 'serious doubts' about Trump's credibility as a witness

James Comey on NBC News

Former FBI Director James Comey sat down with NBC's Chuck Todd on Meet the Press Sunday for an in-depth conversation about — what else? — President Trump and Comey's new book.

Todd's first topic was the Friday report from Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee, a document that concluded Trump's campaign did not collude with Russia in 2016. "This strikes me as a political document," Comey said of the report, one that "wrecked the committee, and it damaged relationships with the FISA Court, the intelligence communities. It's just a wreck."
