White House announces President Donald Trump has fired FBI Director James Comey
If I were Trump I would have fired Comey last Christmas Eve. That is a slow newsday. Trump could have signed the termination letter with “Best of luck in your future endeavors and Merry Christmas.”
It has to be done and should have been ready to do months ago!
LOVE IT!!
DRINK!
He’s my first choice for that post, but it’s probably not going to happen.
I was only 22 when Nixon resigned - too young to have voted for him - but I thought at the time and still believe to this day that his resignation was a horrible mistake.
His assessment that he could no longer effectively lead, and his desire to heal the nation were no doubt heartfelt and sincere, but in reality it was nothing but a Republican capitulation to the fake news of the day.
All the more after watching the Democrat Rapist in Chief shamelessly purger himself and refuse to resign 24 years later under circumstances that were NOT fake news.
Then I witnessed the 2012 Benghazi cover up in which a Democrat POTUS and SOS, for political expediency, failed to respond to a terrorist attack on our embassy in order to keep a foriegn policy embarrassment out of the election-eve news.
This cowardly and selfish act resulted in the deaths of our ambassador and others, and the same media that relentlessly pursued Nixon over a nothingburger actually facilitated Obama and Clinton in their disgusting cover-up.
Some said that Nixon would have faced impeachment or worse if he had not chosen to resign, but I am not so sure....after watching Trump deal with an even more rabid media - I think Nixon should have fought back - but I guess we’ll never know.
Either way, I am so greatful that Trump appears to have learned the real lesson of Watergate:
The leftist mainstream media dominates the news - they get to decide what is a scandal and what is not - all calls for special prosecutors against Republicans, or for the impeachment or resignation of Republicans are spurious and entirely political - they should be laughed off or totally ignored.
Go Trump! You are my hero.
this is about the beltway class despising those who live in the usa.
the effete elites are howling in wounded animal pain.
Unfortunately Nixon had to resign. He did not have the votes in the senate to avoid conviction. His big mistake in my opinion was throwing his underlings under the bus. He should have come clean right after the break-in in June 1972. He still would have been re-elected. No way was McGovern going to win.
He looked like he was in a pretty big rush to get back
When he gets back he's gonna find the key don't fit the lock no more.
He's probably already figured out his email pass word does not work any more and if it does its being monitored.
Bet he didn't triage his office for termination :-)
It’s SOOOO delicious! This anti-American mob has been creamed by Trump, LIVE screen and in public! The Left implodes.
Q
“President Trump! What is best in life?”
A
“To crush your enemies — See them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women!”
yes
The plane originated in DC this morning with a stop in Jacksonville around 930.
I’m certain Harvard or Yale law school has an open position for Comey to teach ethics classes there.
Wahoooooooooooooooooo
Now watch how many Demonrats suddenly discover that they love Comey and that this action is a grave threat to the republic????!!
Watching CNN right now. Entire roundtable vs. Cucinelli. Hilarious.
Hurrah!
I want to see more of this kind of thing!
LOL! Hope Ryan caught some of the splatter.
