Trump: 'I'm not involved' in SDNY's Geoffrey Berman firing - Business Insider

President Donald Trump speaks during a roundtable with governors on the reopening of America's small businesses, in the State Dining Room of the White House, Thursday, June 18, 2020, in Washington. President Donald Trump told reporters on Saturday he had nothing to do with the firing of Manhattan US attorney Geoffrey Berman.Trump's statement came minutes after Barr sent a letter to Berman telling him that he'd been fired by Trump.

"I'm not involved," the president told reporters, adding that the decision was up to Attorney General William Barr. "I have not resigned, and have no intention of resigning, my position, to which I was appointed by the Judges of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York," Berman said.

He thinks he can lie but we know.

realDonaldTrump Liar in Chief

What a hot mess.

So if trump is not involved, Berman still has a job?

Trump should grow a pair and be open and honest. I mean he's honest about what he thinks of other races. Just be honest about this. Berman was fired for investigating Trump's friends, so yes Trump fired him.

Barr’s decision. Trump’s hammer. Simple translation.

Trump threw Barr way under the bus.

DNC GOP FBI Scotus TheJusticeDept SDNYnews If realDonaldTrump denied being involved then Geoffrey Berman should remain in position and the firing issued by Bill Barr is invalid.

The firing was done by Ag Barr but Berman refused to step down so the president intervened for his AG. Shows Trump trusts Barr and his decisions.

What a drama
