Comey Fired

[SHMIV]

Interesting. That's all I have to say on that, for the moment.

100 days too late.

About time! Effin' bastage sat on data until the election, he could have prosecuted Clinton, but chose NOT to do that!

He's about as worthless as teets on a boar hog.

I can't believe President Trump waited this long.

About time, the problem is he's waited so long that now it looks very awkward. The fun part about the next 3.5 years is the unpredictably. Trump is so very counter to every conventional way of thinking that he makes interesting decisions.

So, then...

While we are all looking over here, at the freshly terminated Comey, and saying that it's about time, and remarking that the timing is odd or awkward, and others are looking, and denouncing Trump for the decision... While we are all distracted by this, over here;

What's Trump doing over there, where we are not looking?

Maybe nothing. I don't know. Maybe he just wanted to see Comey in action before he fired him, just to be sure that it was the right thing to do. Or maybe not.

Trump strikes me as a long game kind of guy. He had a strategy to win the White House, that no one understood, and by the time anyone figured out what he was doing, it was too late. Hell, he's over 100 days in office, and there's still a large number of people that can't figure out what happened. Democrats are peppering their speeches with foul language, now, because they think that Trump won, that way.

So, maybe the timing is significant. Or maybe not. I could be wrong. But, Neil Gorsuch is on the Supreme Court, and Hillary Clinton is NOT the President. For these two reasons alone, I will never regret my Trump vote. If that wall goes up, that will just be icing on the cake.

Jake is right; the next 3.5 years will be fun. I doubt that Trump is going to do anything truly terrible, like confiscate firearms and implementing Sharia Law. I expect him to do a few things that are really obnoxious, but I expected the same, back in November. For the most part, it should be a fun ride.

I agree that it took him too long to do this. First off Comey works for Trump. Investigating your boss and his friends for wrong doing and being public about it is a big wrong move if you want to keep your job.

Brilliant man and was good at what he did, until he caved to political pressures during the Clinton case.

If you give someone immunity, that means your intent is to prosecute a bigger fish.

Huma Abedin and others got immunity, then no one was prosecuted. That was when he needed to go.

I do find it ironic that the Democrat base called for his firing since October, but when it happens, now suddenly "Russian conspiracy".
