Democrats Get Their Wish: Trump Fires Comey
American Spectator ^ | May 9, 2017, 8:34 pm | Jeffrey Lord

Democrats from Harry Reid to Chuck Schumer and all through the rest wanted Comey out. Gone. Resigned if not tarred and feathered. Tonight they got their wish from a president who rightly concluded the FBI director had lost the confidence of both Republicans and Democrats and the media.

The Democratic response? It’s Watergate!

And you want to know why Americans are cynical about politics?

Schumer SHOULD BE embarrassed by his present “tears” since he advocated his removal very early on.

I have been shocked at the liberal and media reaction to this.

They have disdain for Comey. But now, they are shocked and outraged that Trump would fire Comey??? I thought they would be happy, given that they were oh so troubled about Comey investigating Hillary and the election allegedly being affected and all that.

So now the criteria have changed. Now the liberals are outraged that Trump would fire a fine public servant such as Comey.

It’s hard to keep up with the talking points and Chuck Schumer and the media spin on these things.

You gotta love President Trump. Meets with Russia’s top diplomat the day after firing Comey.

Democrats Republicans Get Their Wish: Trump Fires Comey

Fixed it.

Democrats wanted him gone until it wasn't convenient for him to be gone.

Stupid leftist freaks won't remember the inconsistency next week.

And yet there is little joy in DUmmieland...the best being one obscenely-worded thread about how this “proves Trump committeed treason” - to which the first reply from a fellow DUmmie is “Clinton fired William Sessions”. LOL, you can’t buy better entertainment than the DUmp!

Who gives a rat's hind quarters what the (R), (D) and especially the pampered, precious, self-righteous MEDIA think?

Comey had lost the confidence of the American people! They could see what was going on, even if the blindfolded media could not! The American people saw Comey covering up Hilliary's crimes scandals busier than a cat in a cow pasture......................

The timing of Trump’s firing of Comedy was exquisite!

By firing Comedy, Trump has totally erased the left wing's bs attacks on his first 100 days as Potus.

He has thrown that bs to the side of the media road and got into their heads with the firing of Comedy. They will be forced to use their Russia bs again and fail again with Russia/Russia!

He will control them for this news cycle. They will give him more free publicity.

That "Free" publicity that will confirm our support of President Trump and bring more of the independent voters to his side.

They will not be able to sleep at night with his firing of their FBI protector, Comedy!

A special good night to rats in DC and across America. Sleep well! President Trump will be there, watching over you!

The democRATs hated Comey before they loved him before they hated him before they loved him.
