Comey calls acting attorney general 'not the sharpest knife'
ABC "News" ^ | November 27, 2018 | by AP

Former FBI Director James Comey says Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker "may not be the sharpest knife" in the drawer.

Comey made those comments during an interview Monday with WGBH News in Boston.

Comey said Whitaker "may not be the sharpest knife in our drawer" but Comey said Whitaker "knows that if he acted in an extralegal way, he would go down in history for the wrong reasons."

Where’s the media calling for civility? Shouldn’t someone of his stature set the proper example? Our children are watching? He was the highest law enforcement official in the land??!!

But you were, Jim

You knew the difference between “gross negligence” and “intent”

Like every lawyer should know

Comey's arrogance comes from being a benefactor of the two-tier justice system.

Magoo really screwed this nation. Badly.

Well, if he does his job, he’s going to carve your a$$ up (with that not so sharp knife) and send it to prison!

How stupid are you, James Comey, when you accuse your opponent of doing what you’re doing? The question answers itself.

This is coming from the very definition of a blunt edge?

Good grief, Comey is proof that the FBI’s standards are even lower than those of your typical lib arts department at the University of Zero Standards.

I always go around in public, calling federal prosecutors — who are looking into my past — stupid.

James Comey was our FBI Director. Drink that in for a moment.

He is one of the seediest, smarmiest, and most unqualified men to ever have such a position of power.

He makes it abundantly clear that he ACTIVELY tried to undermine Trump.

Can I quote some well know DEMOCRATS: If you see this man in public GET IN HIS FACE and tell him what a LOWLIFE SCUMBAG he is.

Like ANTIFA, I am sure no one would mind if it was discovered where he lived and protestors POUNDED on his door all thru the night.

Yep, payback is a bitch. I’d be happy if he served ten years in jail for his crimes.
