YOU GOTTA FIRE HIM.
THE "YOU" IS PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP;
THE "HIM" IS FBI DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY;
AND THE 'SPEAKER' IS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF THE UNITED STATES.
So as you now know, the 'You' did indeed fire the 'Him' and the Democratic Party is apoplectic.
How so? It was that Party that until yesterday had insisted Trump do just that ...fire Comey.
So what gives?
Petty Politics of course !! The Dems outrage is of course the pretend variety... there is no other way to describe it.
In asking for Comey's head, the Dems rightfully concluded that He played a significant and needlessly insensitive role in seeing Hillary Clinton defeated in last November's Election.
And they were correct. Indeed, as a Conservative, I too was appalled by Comey's actions and which may surprise some of you, I truly felt sorry for Hillary. Moreover, I called for his dismissal back then but also naively believed that Comey would inevitably do the proper thing and resign.
The fact that he failed to do 'the right thing' left Trump with no choice but to cashier Him.
But now it gets rich. These self-same Democrats are feigning outrage pretending that President Trump's real motive was to deep six Comey since his FBI investigation was getting uncomfortably close to Trump. This is nonsense since, as I have also said from the beginning, there is really zip to the suggestion that the Russians helped to influence last year's Election to Trump's benefit.
I have read everything I could from the beginning of this farce and there is nothing so far in support of this nonsensical claim. And more the point, there is zip, nada to suggest Trump personally had any role in any of this whatsoever. Full Stop.
I see a hand at the back ...Yes,
"How is it that former President Obama directly intervened in the recent French Election yet the Left has had boo to say?"
Good point - thanks for paying attention.
'Hypocritical', is the word to use here.
Certainly Obama's interference in the Election in France is a fact unlike the spurious innuendo against President Trump which will never go anywhere.
That is not to say that this matter could not have been handled better. Trump should have fired Comey at the outset of his term and having failed to do that, should have awaited the conclusion of the Russian Witch-hunt.
This error in judgment may compel Trump to bring in an independent prosecutor and if so, bring it on. It will be an expensive process that in the end will end up with zilch but at least it will put an end to America's preoccupation with this non-subject.
And for that, it will be a blessing.
One more thing. I find it peculiar that many in the United States are concerned about Russian interference in their elections since back a long as I can recall ...America has done that over and over again in countries throughout the world.
As I see it...
