NEW: Acting FBI Director McCabe just passed on nuking Donald Trump at Senate oversight hearing
Twitchy ^

Posted on 05/11/2017 8:53:33 AM PDT by Stopthethreat

Liberals are desperate to prove that President Trump fired James Comey as FBI Director as a part of some grand scheme to end any investigation into ties between his campaign and Russia. Well, if that was the president’s plan, Trump accidentally put in charge of the FBI someone we’ve criticized in the past for his close ties to the Clinton money machine: Andrew McCabe. Why would the president do that?

Anyway, McCabe, who is testifying right now in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee, just had a spoon-fed opportunity to nuke the president and he passed.

Here’s Senator Richard Burr asking McCabe to comment on Trump’s letter to Comey alleging that the former FBI director had privately told the president on “three separate occasions” that he wasn’t the target of the investigation.

But I spoke to Boris Badenov and Natasha and they told me that Pres. Putin wanted Hillary elected because of the uranium that she had given him.

McCabe wants the top spot. He’s not going to say anything controversial against President Trump... for now.

Of course, even if McCabe gets the top job, he would still need to watch himself. President Trump has just demonstrated he has no qualms exercising that pesky “serve at the pleasure of the President” clause.

McCabe just REMOVED HIMSELF from consideration as FBI director by stating that the FBI rank and file had FULL CONFIDENCE in James Comey prior to his firing.

Leftist HACK McCabe is FULL OF SH*T just like Comey.

I hope he does not get it. I will not be happy until McCabe is gone too.

If you think this is fun, just think how much total enjoyment President Donald J. Trump is getting out of this.

This is the best game and the most fun our President has had in his whole LIFE. You think he would give it up for anything?

Best. Game. Of. Dungeons&Dragons. EVER.

Read to the end of the article to find:

Maxine Waters admits she has seen no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion.

Except, perhaps, in her dreams.

He knows he's got less than a snow balls chance in July of getting that job. His main concern is keeping the one he's got now. My advice to him would be to take all his personal effects home now. It'll save him time when the hammer drops.

I voted for Trump in Communist Massachusetts because I read that "Clinton war on Women" book and because 20,000 Democrats switched registration to vote for Trump in Mass. and hand him the primary against Ted Cruz. Mass. Democrats voted for Trump in the primary to have The President beat Ted Cruz; I voted for the President in the general election to deny the Mass. Dems their candidate, Hitlery.

The FAKE 'Trump-Russia collusion' MEDIA NARRATIVE was FABRICATED by the left to COVER FOR OBAMA SPYING ON TEAM TRUMP DURING THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN!!!!

When are charges going to be brought against Obama and his cronies?

____________________________________________

Of course he passed. He’s as dirty and as guilty as his (former) boss; Comey.

He knows he better kiss up or he too will be indicted at the same time Comey is.

Maybe he will want the top job so bad he will sell out his Lib friends and declare the Russia investigation over with no evidence found. Since he is a Clinton Hack, he will have full credibility with the Dems.

Then Trump can kick him to the curb

...and look HOW Trump Fired Comey. He embarrassed him in front of the whole Country doing it!
