Trump to Comey: You're fired.

  1. Fair enough. Just as long as neither of us pretends that you're fair & balanced in your commentary on other people's conduct.

    Where did I state that I was fair and balanced in my commentary on other people's conduct? Who is? Who can be? By the very nature of our conversation, we converse mostly with those whose opinions we are opposed to. That's the nature of a politics forum.

    You're not about to scold Futurecurrents anymore than I am to scold Scat. But I'm also not going to concern myself with your discussions with Scat on a personal level. So leave me to mine.

    I would expect you to defend yourself against those who flame you.

    He did it to cover something up, but he didn't think about it, so even if they don't find anything he is still impulsive. There I think we got every bet on the table covered. He should be more like the Department of Education, they never fire anybody for anything. And the funny thing is, Comey is now completely innocent and blameless because he got fired by Trump. The only thing worse would have been if he didn't fire Comey in spite of the Attorney Generals assessment. He is still paying for not firing Flynn soon enough. Next time, just ask CNN if it is ok first.

    If Trump had fired Comey without putting out the bullshit that AG's assessment was the reason or if he had done it after taking office, there won't have been a problem - but Trump himself said that Russia was the reason so the issue blew up because of TIMING. Comey was escalating the Russia investigation when he got fired. Dems wanted Comey to step down, nobody asked Trump to fire Comey because he was too harsh on Clinton when Trump himself was tweeting last week how lenient Comey was on the email case.

    A foreign government has revealed another one of the Clinton Foundation’s pay-to-play schemes.
    Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said that Hillary Clinton “personally pressured” her to help a Clinton Foundation donor during Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state in 2011, despite it being against ethics laws, Circa reported.

    Ah, so nobody actually did anything wrong, it is the timing which is the crime. How we gonna tie that to Watergate?

    Comey was escalating Russia investigation

    Trump didn't want that

    Trump fires Comey

    This is from Trump himself and how he is threatening Comey, lines up perfectly with Watergate

    Except that in Watergate there was a breakin, and Nixon was remotely involved with it, either before or after.

    The Russians never broke in anywhere, and Trump was never involved. On the other hand, Comfy and the lefty media DID have an influence, and the lie that Russia had more influence than them should itself be investigated.

    Apples and oranges, so, the optics you wish to force on this is losing its hypocritical force, and the tide might, just now, be starting to turn.

    I don't care about your illusory optics, and finally, maybe Trump doest care either.

    Maybe this is news to you but Russians broke into the DNC too and leaked their emails and Trump's NSC was a foreign agent, his campaign advisor was a Putin sock, Blackwater CEO established backchannel communications with the Russians for Trump whose sister is the Education Secretary and that's just the tip of the iceberg. There is Page, there is Stone and more that I listed on the other thread.

    And by the way, Lindsey Graham confirmed that Russia influenced the election, so did Trump's IC people just today - are you saying they are lying too now?
