Former FBI Director James Comey said President Trump has become a “shrunken, withered figure,” and urged Americans to challenge his actions.
Comey outlined the urgency in what he defined as the “fourth, and final, stage,” of dealing with Trump’s rhetorical attacks on his critics as part of an op-ed published Monday in The Washington Post.
“What’s it like to be personally and publicly attacked by the president of the United States? Like many others in and out of government, I have some experience,” wrote Comey, who was fired by Trump and has feuded with the president for more than two years.
“It’s hard on good people, especially those who don’t have savings to fall back on,” he continued. “But the truth is that, in many ways, it is not as hard as you might think, especially as it continues endlessly, leaking power, shrinking its source.”

“It no longer feels as though the most powerful human on the planet is after you. It feels as though a strange and slightly sad old guy is yelling at you to get off his lawn, echoed by younger but no less sad people in red hats shouting, ‘Yeah, get off his lawn!’ ” Comey wrote.

“I don’t mean to suggest Trump is not dangerous. The horrific betrayal of allies in northern Syria demonstrates that an impetuous and amoral leader can do great harm, even in shrunken form,” Comey adds.
“For the fourth, and final, stage, we need to fight through our fatigue and contempt for this shrunken, withered figure. Spurred by the danger he poses to our nation and its values, we have to overcome the shock and numbness of earlier stages. We must not look away,” Comey wrote.

The sheer arrogance and hubris of this sociopath.
“No political bias.”
Gee, Jim, what’s making you think about shrunken and withered things these days?
Comey looking in a mirror ???
I'm truly concerned if any trials are to be held in DC, given its jury pool.
The conga line of treasonous, failed coup d'état conspiratorss of the Obama deep statet to the gallows would help fumigate formerly honorable institutions, since corrupted by the left.
Comey will not be able to hide behind curtains again when his time is up
We need the REAL investigations to bring Justice to these criminal frauds
Covering up for hillary’s treasons - including by obama is behind so much of it (REMEMBER - WATERGATE WAS ABOUT THE COVERUP)
DRAIN THE SWAMP AND BURN THE POISONOUS REFUSE

FALSE SCIENCE
FRAUD SCIENCE

Apparently, the idiot is not heeding Hannity’s warning.......
Yes, he does have a screw loose. In a few years, he’ll be sounding like Slow Joe.
This coming from a man who hid behind curtains to avoid shaking hands with the Pres?
We didnt see a shrunken man dealing with those tittering pussies at NATO he shook down for an extra $130 billion in self defense funding in one trip, or walking across the DMZ to shake hands with Jong Un, dining with Xi in the Forbidden City as the first POTUS ever invited to do so. We didnt see a shrunken man shaking hands with every Academy grad, running across the tarmac to shake hands with the cops in FL.
Comey is a pompous seditious A$$ - its my wish to see him brought to justice.
I continue to be amazed how this drama queen, frequently, it seems, subject to the vapors, ever became head of the FBI.
Hahaha Comey! The man is a warrior! Something you will never be, with those shrinky dink nads in your under squares. Your time is coming buddy....
Word of advice: make friends with Bubba and don’t bend over to pick up the soap
James “Mistakes Were Made” Comey. Comey you are an effing joke. I would love to see you in chains, whining and sniveling that the evil orange man is behind it all.
I want this a$$hole in prison more than anyone else--including Hillary.
1. Trump doesn't want to do anything
2. Trump cannot do anything
3. Trump is waiting for the right time
It will soon be 3 years since Trump assumed the most powerful position in the US. Why hasn't there been any retaliation?
Every patriot is fervently hoping for door #3. Some are probably considering number two, which would indicate the civil war was over and done (patriots lost) years/decades ago.
But it must be asked, what if #1 is the actual case? What if Trump getting elected - and get re-elected - was the entire point, his sole motivation? After all, it would fit with the previous 35 years he lived in the media spotlight.
Whatever the reason, the lack of action should be giving anyone who cares to ask pause for concern, as in go silent when/if the new regime is installed.
Just for his smugness, I’m with you.
