Why Comey was fired is one of the few things he and Trump agree on.

You realize this is all still under investigation, right?

If there was a real problem, it would have been apparent by now. I think Senator McCain made an interesting point to Comey, which was to ask how it's possible that he could so boldly conclude that the Clinton email case is closed and no charges are necessary, while still keeping another investigation into Russian election interference going. It makes no sense. Comey is a fruitcake.

Keep investigating someone for long enough, you will find something. Not necessarily what you were looking for, but something. (See Bill Clinton).

The problem is not firing the FBI director. The problem is a guy whose entire team is under investigation by the FBI firing the FBI director because he doesn't want his team investigated.

He said it was the way it was handled.  It seems a stretch to assume he meant that it was because he didn't want his team investigated - especially since Comey confirmed that Trump wanted to find out if his "satellites" were in any way involved.

Now I'm crossed, should I believe Alan Dershowitz or Omni and Wilbur?  

Good thing he doesn't have the authority to stop Congress and special councels  from investigating. Firing Comey earned him a special councel investigation. Smart.

Have you ever wondered why Trump never seems worried about...and even welcomes investigations into himself.

No, Trump is much smarter than that...just ask Hillary Clinton.  

 

So you think him just blathering on with his tweets makes him look smart? That's hilarious.

Explain to us all what you deemed questionable.

Well, his announcement that Hillary was clear, his bending over for Lynch, his re-announcement of the Hillary "matter", his weakness around everything Trump, his apparent shock at Trumps "suggestion" even thou he'd obviously faced this before - see Lynch, his allowing himself to discuss cases in private with Trump, his refusal to clear Trump, his refusal to call out the "fake media", starting a personal file against the president, leaking to the press, used his memos to manipulate the government, dragging his friend into a scandal, lying to the president.

These things (and i'm probably forgetting a lot) all came to light yesterday - I wonder just how much we don't know.  Now, you'll likely defend some of these questionable decisions as defense or done out of necessity, but everything he has done, he could've done something else - something better or more honest. He chose the worst path nearly every time he had a decision to make. 

He was also stringing the president along and giving him the obviously empty "we'll see" routine - a routine we use for our kids when we actually have no intention to do anything. This alone should've had him fired and really the last time they talked, this was the conversation and the lie Comey gave to the president.  Is it possible that Trump saw through this thinly veiled lie and decided that that was enough - I think so!

We don't know what it is we don't know and on and on per Rumsfeld. Don't let that nonsense fool you. What e we need to start with is getting Trump under oath in front of a similar committee as was Comer today. I doubt he's got the guts to do it.

Here's something that I just can't get past; Everyone says that the big issue is that the Russians have infiltrated the election, it has also been stated that there is no evidence of collusion from the Trump campaign, so...why is nobody asking about the Democrats role, the DNC, Wasserman-Schultz, Podesta or Hillary?  It seems to me that whatever the Russians may have done, was likely done through the Democrats.  Where is the real investigation?

All we're seeing here is a bitter James Comey picking a fight with a president that he clearly never intended to get along with.  The democrats and the media love it - of course they do, they finally think they have a tool in their baseless attempt to remove Trump.  These people would've fired Comey on day 1 of Hillary's presidency, now he's their champion.

Even the farthest of right wingers who questioned Comey today praised him for his integrity he brought to the job, so quit trying to flog that horse shit. Put Trump under oath, and let him speak. Then get back to us. Trump has already been proved a liar over and over. Let's see what he says under oath, where ther are legal ramifications.

Of course people are going to thank him for his service...yada yada!  There is no need to kick a guy who's just been fired.  The real test as to what they think will come later.  Before yesterday, I thought Comey was probably pretty decent guy who happened to be caught in the middle of a bad situation.  But no, after yesterday's testimony, he's created everything that's happened to himself.  He was self serving, Trump saw it and acted.  

You don't lie and cheat the president and expect to keep your job.

I can only laugh at that. Comey spoke eloquently under oath, for nearly three hours, and made sense at each turn. Put Trump under oath, let's see how he does, and get back to us.

Does it make sense that Lynch actually told him to change the narrative of an investigation, yet Trump says "I hope" and Comey is rendered helpless?  Does it make sense that he coulda turned his memo's over to the authorities, yet chose to leak them (through a friend) to the NYT - who BTW seemed to get most of the good leaks.  Does it make sense that he could bail out Hillary in the press, but not the president?  

Sorry, a lot of what Comey said didn't make sense - considering his professional position.

Comey was rendered helpless because he was fired because he didn't bend to Trump's "I hope" with regard to Russia. And that will very likely come back to roost in days to come. But why would you want to support a scumbag like Trump in the first place?

Kinda cool eh how Trump paved the way Comey to make yuuuge money too. I doubt anybody will like Trump's book unless he learns words that are  more than one syllable long. Although I do see a market for that type of audience among this crowd. Eh BC?

Comey needs the money far more than President Trump.   The book deal would have happened anyway just because of the Clinton email disaster and impact on her bungled election campaign....losing to...TRUMP !

Actually most of what Comey said made very good sense. Maybe you didn't understand it, or maybe you just didn't like it because it brought a very serious focus onto your buddy. How would you like the idea of simply putting both of them into a room with mics on and have a discussion? (hint: if you're a Trump supporter don't ever agree to that)
