The accusation has been made by comey that Trump pressured him to drop the flynn investigation.

This is where the story falls apart. The "Flynn investigation" in that accusation relates to allegations that Flynn was orchestrating some sort of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Now that this whole charade has been debunked (Flynn's dealings with the Russians were perfectly legal, and were done with the knowledge and permission of the Obama administration), you're turning this "Flynn investigation" into something else entirely.

Every FBI official who has testified in this matter has said that firing Comey did absolutely nothing to stop any ongoing FBI investigation.

And since the FBI director serves as a presidential appointee anyway, the President of the United States can fire him for any damn reason at all.

We'll see. You seem to overlook a government that can cover fast and furious, irs targeting, Benghazi, clinton destruction of evidence (hell the FBI helped her destroy evidence) and clinton conducting secrete state department business on a private server to hide it from oversight. And don't even get me started on uranium1. All this with barely more then the symbolic peep from congress and full support from the media.
