Robert Hyde says he was only 'playing' in texts about surveillance of Marie Yovanovitch

on Wednesday night that he didn't take the texts"seriously," and thought Hyde was"trying to make himself bigger than he was."

Pressed again for a response to suggestions he surveilled Yovanovitch, the congressional candidate said:"I mean those are pretty heavy accusations. It was just colorful, we were playing. I thought we were playing. I didn't know he was so serious."After a long pause, Bolling asked Hyde if he"had eyes on Marie Yovanovitch," referring to texts where he spoke of surveilling the ex-U.S. ambassador.

He went on to argue that"the left" was more offended by his text messages than"supporting the Iranian protesters" or caring about the opioid crisis.

I hope the old addage “playing with fire gets your fingers burned” applies

This again.....

That's a new ploy by the DEPLORABLES! Why do they still believe America is stupid?

Yeah, yeah...yesterday he was claiming Adam Schiff 'likes to spy on people' and alleging that Lev Parnas had planned to kidnap Rudy Giuliani in the Ukraine. Was THAT 'just playing' too?

Yeah! Me, too! I can’t remember how many times I’ve sat around planning harm for an ambassador from my own country. Oh! Yes, I can ..... none

Remind me never to go to his house for a play date

Those Republicans. Such a bunch of fun loving folks. GOP is clearly just a bunch of privileged, spoiled frat boys and their sorority sisters, enjoying life and preying on the rest of us for fun.

Trying not to get Epsteined

Only playing? Now who is going to believe that?

But how did he know that Trump wanted to be rid of her? And how is any of that funny? There is way more to this than silly excuses.

trumps lines that he tells people to use - I didn't know him, I was only joking, he only got coffee for me, etc

Sure. Thumbs up to lies

The whole Republican Party is full of halarrious jokers Every time you call them on something they said it turns out to be just a joke Not a funny joke ,not a joke that makes sense but a joke non the less What a pathetic lot

Everbody says it was a joke once caught red-handed.
