James Comey: John Kelly Called Trump ‘Dishonorable’ For Firing Me
MSN News ^ | 04/12/2018 | Lachlan Markay

Within minutes of his firing in May, former FBI director James Comey received a call from John Kelly, then the head of the Department of Homeland Security and now the White House chief of staff.

According to Comey’s account, which is set to appear in his highly-anticipated forthcoming memoir, Kelly was “emotional” over the manner in which Comey was let go. The then-FBI Director had reportedly been in California at the time, speaking to FBI agents in Los Angeles, and only found out that he was out of a job when he saw the news break on TV.

Kelly, Comey recalls, said he was “sick” about the situation and “intended to quit” in protest. Kelly “said he didn’t want to work for dishonorable people,” referring specifically to President Donald Trump, who appeared to be upset at the FBI’s persistent investigation into his campaign’s possible collusion with Russian officials.

You nailed it.

Comey has to sell books....baiting Trump is a marketing ploy.

“Don’t do it Donald.”

In so many words Loretta Lynch says Comey’s a liar. She won’t be the first or the last.

Some of us realize Comey is a disgruntled fired employee, who deserved to get fired.

Comey lies easily. The man has not a clue what honor is andis likely lying to try abd start a dust up between Kelly and Trump. Such a filthy little man Comey is showing himself to be.

And every time he opens his mouth is confirmation of it.

Not very surprising. Look at the fascists a-hole that was director before Comey. The FBI is a very corrupt organization.

Not to denigrate any of our wonder freep women and those great conservative women nationwide…

…but this Comey is a c***. (As oppose to a ‘d***’ which is the first name I thought to call him but it didn’t seem to fit).

Comey is a proven liar so I believe nothing he has to say. He is also a fired employee, fired for cause, so he has an axe to grind. He has a book to sell and he knows if he dishes dirt on Trump his sales will be high among his constituents — the Libs/Dems. Finally, we have all seen one of the prongs of the attacks on this president and that is to try to sew dissent within the Administration’s ranks by constantly spewing rumor and innuendo about problems that don’t exist and things that were supposedly said that were not said. This is also MSN so they will play up or even misrepresent anything if it is negative to President Trump.

There is a good little book called Winning Through Intimidation. Author explains that whenever someone tells you they are the most honorable person you’ll ever meet and that you can trust them, run for the hills! That’s been my experience as well.

Regarding Kelly, I do suspect he expressed regret that Comey got fired while giving a speech somewhere. However, because I view Comey as a threat to our republic, I think the self serving corrupt sob got what he deserved.
