GOP Tweets Out an Ethan Hawke GIF in Response to Comey’s Prepared Testimony
The official GOP Twitter account has already responded to the released James Comey testimony, with this actual tweet:

Yep, that’s a GIF from an Ethan Hawke movie––In a Valley of Violence. (And yes, Hawke is not a fan of Trump’s.)
This comes on the heels of that prepared testimony coming out, in which Comey writes that after President Trump spoke to him about Michael Flynn, “I had understood the President to be requesting that we drop any investigation of Flynn in connection with false statements about his conversations with the Russian ambassador in December.”
The Twitter replies were, well, what you’d expect:
