Following the fired FBI Director Jim Comey's testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee, US President Donald Trump's lawyer fired back that the comments confirmed what was already known, APA reports quoting Reuters.
The congressional testimony by Comey on Thursday confirmed that Russia’s interference in the 2016 US election did not affect at all the final vote count, President Donald Trump's outside counsel Mark Kasowitz said in a statement on Thursday.
"He [Comey] also admitted that there is no evidence that a single vote changed as a result of any Russian interference," Kasowitz stated.
Marc Kasowitz, an attorney retained by Trump to handle all things Russia, blasted Comey for leaking information to the press.
Contrary to Comey's perspective of the nature of his discussions with Trump that he explained Thursday, the lawyers said that Trump never requested Comey's undying loyalty. Comey also called Trump and the White House "liars" and said they had defamed the FBI.
