Oh, Jesus, That'll Work, Sure

President Donald Trump is scheduled to give the keynote speech at a conservative Christian conference on Thursday at the same time former FBI Director James Comey testifies before the Senate Intelligence Committee.

[...]

According to an official [Faith & Freedom Coalition] agenda, the luncheon runs from 11:30–1:30 p.m. ET on Thursday.

Comey is set to testify on Capitol Hill the same day in an open session scheduled to begin at 10 a.m.

  TPM
What a cynical move.

Actually, it might work to keep his followers from watching Comey, and at this point, they're the only ones left who are still supporting him. I don't think he needs to keep them from the testimony, though, because they'll just be sure Comey is lying.

On the other hand, it might be a calculated White House move to keep Trump himself from watching Comey and tweeting!

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
