Gowdy: 'Saint James' Comey thinks he 'gets to write the moral script'

Former Rep. Trey Gowdy reacted Friday to former FBI Director James Comey's appearance at a CNN town hall this week, saying that Comey believes he always "gets to write the moral script."

"Saint James Comey," Gowdy, R-S.C., said on "Hannity," gave "pretty much the same as any other interview. He is always right. He gets to write the moral script."

During the town hall, Comey said that people like outgoing Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein are not of "strong character."

“I think people like that, like Rod Rosenstein, who are people of accomplishment but not real sterling character, strong character, find themselves trapped. And then they start telling themselves a story to justify their being trapped which is, 'Yeah, he's awful but the country needs me,’” Comey told host Anderson Cooper.

During the event, Comey also told Cooper that he tried to avoid becoming like Rosenstein and other "co-opted" members of the administration by openly disagreeing with President Trump in the Oval Office.

Gowdy told host Jason Chaffetz that Comey seemingly believes he is correct, and "everybody else is wrong."

Comey's memos don't explain how he and the President got into a conversation about Michael Flynn.

Why wasn't the President warned about the dossier....BEFORE the election.

Comey does appear to believe he walks around with a halo.

The guy either believes or knows he's untouchable.

If he knows he's protected the arrogance is understandable.

Is he the ultimate Deep States guardian?

Did the Deep State promise him if he remained loyal he would be protected?

I understand the name will be changed to "Comey Island".

He’s probably let it be known that unless the Democrats protect him, he will roll over on them all for immunity. The Attorney General may very well be looking for that one person who he has enough on to get them to roll over.

When he goes there for a long visit, you and I can send your title suggestion for his new book.

He’s got to be, if he ever alluded to the truth he would be tried for treason and he knows it.

I think he figures if he gets out often and criticizes Pres. Trump often enough when they finally go after him he can yell “witch hunt”.

According to Comey, Donald Trump “sucks up the souls” of the people who work for him, “in small bites.”

So we have Comey vs. Beelzebub here. St. James will be imprisoned in a cistern, and then have his head served up on a platter, like John the Baptist. Will make a great opera - preferably a twelve-tone one.

If everyone remains loyal to the group, in this instance, everyone goes free. These guys are sharp and they know the game.

What will blow everything open is one person breaking rank and ratting out the others. But as I said, they're sharp and they know the game. They all win if they all stay silent:

Comey is the perfect example of a criminal who will burn everyone to save himself an iota of discomfort.
