Comey: Getting wedgies as a kid in N.J. prepared me for Trump

Decades before former FBI Director James Comey says he faced the mob boss-like tactics of President Trump, the fired lawman got an early lesson in bullies growing up in Allendale, he writes.

In Comey's book, "A Higher Loyalty," the 1978 Northern Highlands Regional High School graduate describes suffering through body-shaming, wedgies and getting shoved into lockers, according to the Washington Post, which obtained an advance copy of the already best-seller.

Comey, who says Trump demanded a loyalty pledge, links lessons from his upbringing in Bergen County to his public clash with the president. Trump ultimately canned Comey amid the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

"Surviving a bully requires constant learning and adaptation. Which is why bullies are so powerful, because it's so much easier to be a follower, to go with the crowd, to just blend in," Comey writes.

The future FBI chief faced other traumatic experiences growing up in a leafy section of Bergen County. At 15, Comey was held captive by a gun-toting assailant dubbed the "Ramsey Rapist."

This guy is pathetic. Just another example of how the cream doesn’t rise to the top, but some feces floats.

Gettuing wedgies in N.J. prepared Comey for Trump?

Buahahahahahaha!

To prepare for what Trump will do to him, he should have spent at least 6 months on Riker’s Island.

I don’t know if he is adequately prepared. We need to help out Jim Comey. Will you volunteer to give Jimmy a wedgie? Will you volunteer to give him an atomic one?

The man is 6’9”. In HS unless he went through a huge growing spurt he would have been at least 6’. And yet he got pushed around???

Not buying it.

Whose book is going to be the most pathetic, Comeys or Hillaries?

I guess he’s claiming victimhood from “wedgiephobia”.

He is a tower of arrogance. A liar who helped Hillary Clinton get away with the largest number of felonies of any America in history, he has the nerve to call Trump a liar?

Comey “describes suffering through body-shaming, wedgies and getting shoved into lockers”

The fact that a man of his age would publicly utter such psycho-babble to justify his errant and criminal conduct shows the depth of his mental illness.

Does President Trump remind him of one of his childhood tormentors?

Did Loretta Lynch bring back memories of that stern grade school teacher who wouldn’t let him go wee-wee?

Does Hillary remind him of that kindly old neighbor lady who used to give him a Saf-T-Pop when he was a good boy?

This is turning into a farce.

Clearly Comey did not receive enough wedgies as a kid.

He seriously needs to be on the receiving end of an atomic wedgie.

The man is a disgrace and he will soon be a worldwide laughingstock.
