Holy shit. Right from Nixon's faulty playbook.
Everyone knows you never go full Nixon.
Nixon never fired the director of the FBI, so even Nixon knew better than to go full Trump.
Nobody dared mess with Hoover.
Now we know Deep Throat was an FBI assistant director. One could make the case the FBI fired Nixon.
And if Trump, like Nixon, is tying to cover up, that is the angle that will get him.
Russiagate doesn't strike you as a Benghazi-level nothingburger batter fried in McCarthy sauce?
That's what this country needs by God. Better dead than Red. Where is a "Tail gunner Joe" when you need one.
clinton fired will sessions director of fbi in 93 while under fbi investigation for whitewater
Yes, Sessions was fired, but then again he himself was under investigation for tax evasion, graft, and misuse of funds. We say 'under investigation for,' but we could just say 'guilty of.'
The timing is interesting, but I have to think that if Clinton won, Comey would have been gone 4 months ago.
"While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation, I nevertheless concur with the Department of Justice that you are not able to effectively lead the Bureau."
From the body of Trump's termination letter. Wow, just wow.
Trump is a coward. And the entire GOP are spineless whacks for being complicit in all this shit.
You make it sound like the Democrats are brave, principled champions.
This is not a problem with one president or one party. It's a problem with a country.
