That is not true. It was a bunch of clips of those people asking Comey to resign, not to be fired. NONE of the clips that have been posted so far have asked Trump to fire Comey.


They wanted his ass canned. Resign,fired, they wanted his ass gone. Nice try at spin though.


Why do you feel such a need to exaggerate and lie about it?

They all said it was time for him to resign. That was it. Period. No ass involved.

As recently as May 2nd, Hillary blamed Jim Comey and said if not for him "I would be your president." I think your both pretty deep in denial and out of touch with the country.

He sounds completely paranoid of what Comey may say...and threatening him. Trump is getting close to cracking.

No, it's not just a 'word'. It's the attitude of "they want his ass". That WAS NOT being expressed in the video that you posted. They were ALL simply saying it was time for him to resign. Comey has not been an issue that Democrats (or Republicans) have talked about in months. So, this entire conversation is just bullshit and distraction from the real reason he was fired.

Both Hillary Clinton and John Podesta, hugely influential Democrats, mentioned Comey just a few days ago.

Yeah, and that's irrelevant. I also said the way he handled those new Emails probably cost her the election....and I said it long before she did. But, that is not a call for Trump to fire Comey. Republicans pointing to such things to justify Comey being fired is ridiculous.

It's especially irrelevant when Trump himself has said he had already decided to fire Comey regardless of what was said in those memos recommending firing him. So, all of those surrogates out there saying Trump was simply doing what he was advised to do, were lying. Even the VP with all of his talk about how Trump was being so decisive was lying and wrong. According to Trump, he was fired because he was a "grandstander" and a "showboat". He even admitted it was Comey's public testimony that finally convinced him to fire him.

The bottom line is that all of the CRAP of Democrats asking for Comey to resign due to how he handled Clinton's Emails is irrelevent to why he was fired. You guys are comparing apples to oranges, yet again.

When he inserted himself into the election, they certainly did. All this proves is that the Democrats are all over the place. One minute, Comey is part of a Soviet plot. The next minute, he is a heroic G-Man. They are completely adrift in the wilderness and so are you.

You are simply WRONG. There was NEVER a huge demand to have Comey fired by these people...they wanted his resignation. You and KC are INVENTING this.

As for "the next minute". You are talking about events that happened six months to a year ago. There have been no demands for Comey to resign in months. So, it's not 'minutes ago'.

And, finally, it's irrelevant anyway because TRUMP said he decided to fire Comey after seeing him publicly testify. THAT is why he was fired...it had NOTHING TO DO WITH CLINTON...But, you guys just keep inventing stuff anyway. It's what Trump and his minions do best.

So, I wonder how long it will take before "Obstruction of Justice" charges are made and Democrats start pushing for impeachment.

The Colbert audience the other night is the perfect example of this. They applauded when Colbert said Trump had fired Comey because that was the liberal mantra up to that point - "COMEY MUST GO!!!!". Colbert had to correct them and say that it wasn't good, because it might help Trump. It's all about opposing Trump.

I said that months ago. He is going to do "something" that HE believes is right and legal and justified. But, REALITY will be that it very wrong, illegal, and could have been handled in a MUCH better way.

Trump has come VERY close to admitting he was obstructing justice in the midst of his talking about firing Comey. He came to the conclusion to fire him after watching him testify. When he made the decision, he was thinking to himself about the Trump/Russia thing and how it was made up by Democrats. If he took one more step down path, he would be impeached.

YOU are a complete IDIOT. You came on here saying they wanted him FIRED. I spoke the truth and said that was not said. Now you are obsessed with Comey's ass. They did not "want his ass". They simply wanted him to step aside for someone new. There is a HUGE difference between what you are implying and what the reality is. After Trump took office, all this talk of Comey stepping down disappeared. It only reappeared because Donald Judas Trump LIED and said he was firing him because of they way he treated Clinton's Email thing.

So, yeah, you are just being a good Trump minion and are now obsesses with Comey's ass and have some weird desire to talk about Comey's ass in every post.

Add that to the fact that he admitted thinking about Russia/Trump/Collusion when he made the decision and you have obstruction of justice...where Trump knowling fired Comey to impede the investigation of the 2016 campaign and Russian involvement.

I'm not saying impeachment should happen. Not yet. But, by his own words and his own hands and his own rope, he is hanging himself.

Comey should have been fired. I think all sides agree. Dems are looking at everything Trump does and want to turn it into an impeachable offense. Comey became the story and that was Comey's fault. He started becoming the Marcia Clark of everything and that hampers progress. It puzzled both sides that he laid out all the crimes Hillary committed, and then gave her a pass. Like the letter recommending his termination stated, you don't talk in negative terms about someone you have decided not to prosecute. So one side is glad he at least laid it out but they are pissed at him for not treating her like every other "regular" American and the other side is pissed at him for spelling out that she broke so many laws in the first place. Then the letter last minute, and again no prosecution. At some point, it's more about Comey than the cases he is supposed to be investigating. Frankly, Comey was acting politically and trying to avoid issues with his bosses and others. That's not how the head of the FBI should be acting.

I can't tell you how many people I know, from all sides, that are so sick of this Russia thing. You can't go 4 or 5 months of beating a drum with no evidence. The mantra can't be "we want to see if there is something there." It's a lot of wasted time, effort, money, and most importantly, discussion time. People want to talk about other things. Russia did nothing different in the 2016 election than they have done in past elections. There is, so far, zero evidence of Trump team collusion with Russia. If our government is so slow that they can't find anything in the past 4 or 5 months if there is something, that's pretty fucking sad. But more likely is that there is nothing. Because it started with nothing. There is no event that caused this to be a thing except the Dems unwillingness to accept the results of an election. I guess like the birthers. Except the press sides with Trump haters so it becomes a much bigger thing.

If my Boss said to me "Memorex, I think some of our employees have been colluding with our competition. Get to the bottom of it.", I'd be fired within a month if I had nothing to report. Maybe a week. It does not take forever to find shit out. It's time to move on for God's sake.

The number one issue we have right now is the press. They are spinning everything so hard that it is further dividing this country. Doesn't look like it is going to stop. So who knows where we go from here.

Since the Left thinks Trump firing Comey means he is "hiding something"...

May 1993 - FBI opened investigation into Travel Office firings
July 19th 1993 - FBI Director William Sessions fired by President Bill Clinton
July 20th 1993 - Long time Clinton confidant and Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster suicide

I wonder what Bill Clinton was hiding...

Wow, so full of conspiracy theories.

Sessions was fired after a probe into ethics violations. If he had not fired him you all would be complaining that Clinton allowed Sessions to get away with abusing his office.

Contrast that to Trump...there was already an investigation into Comey's handling of the Clinton case. Trump did not wait for that to conclude and fired him anyway...But, he also stated that the AG memo's were not what convinced him...it was his testimony that convinced him. And, he also admitted that when he made the decision, he was thinking about the Trump/Russia/Collusion thing. Trump isn't hiding much...he easily implied he was trying to bring an end to the Russian investigation and did not like how Comey was handling it.

No, he should not have been fired...at least not until the investigation into his conduct in the case of Hillary's Emails was finished. Historically, Presidents do not fire Directors of the FBI because of personality conflicts (ie: Grandstanding and showboat) or because they do not like his testimony in investigations that may implicate the President. In the entire history of this country the FBI director has only been fired once - for ethics violations. If the investigation came back and said Comey handled the Clinton case in such a poor way, IMO, Trump could have asked for his resignation and Comey would have quit on his own.

Comey was not fired due to how he handled the Clinton case. That is a lie that the PRESIDENT HIMSELF exposed when he said he would have fired him regardless of the AG's recommendation. Trump the Tyrant said he made the decision after watching him testify. Trump the Tyrant said as he made the decision he was thinking about Trump/Russia and how it was all a made up story. Trump the Tyrant did not not fire Comey because of how he handled Hillary's case...in fact, he PRAISED HIM after he publicly reopened it and reviewed the Wiener Emails.

Finally, the media is not the problem here. Donald Judas Trump is the problem. HE is the one who makes Tweets threatening Comey, accusing Obama of a felony, and on and on and on. HE exposes himself to scrutiny by putting this stuff out there. The press is simply covering it - as they should. The last time something similar to Comey being fired happened, the President had to resign or face impeachment for "obstruction of Justice". Now you have Trump threatening Comey saying there may be tapes of him. WTF do you expect the press to do? Ignore the comparisons to Watergate? Do you expect congress to not demand the tapes? Trump dug this hole for himself, and every time he sends an insane 3am Tweet, he digs the hole deeper.

Again, with the Russia thing and evidence. You are talking about CLASSIFIED "stuff". Over the last week we learned that foreign governments are now providing recordings of Trump people talking to Russia. We have a separate investigation into Trump's business dealings that has provided the FBI with evidence of more Trump's business contacts with Russia. We have Michael Flynn, who is most likely going to jail. To say there is nothing there is just bullshit. This is like an iceberg where we the public see only the tip of the iceberg while a huge mass of classified stuff is out of our view.

I can't tell you how many people I know, from all sides, that are so sick of this Russia thing. You can't go 4 or 5 months of beating a drum with no evidence. The mantra can't be "we want to see if there is something there." It's a lot of wasted time, effort, money, and most importantly, discussion time. People want to talk about other things. Russia did nothing different in the 2016 election than they have done in past elections. There is, so far, zero evidence of Trump team collusion with Russia. If our government is so slow that they can't find anything in the past 4 or 5 months if there is something, that's pretty fucking sad. But more likely is that there is nothing. Because it started with nothing. There is no event that caused this to be a thing except the Dems unwillingness to accept the results of an election. I guess like the birthers. Except the press sides with Trump haters so it becomes a much bigger thing.

If my Boss said to me "Memorex, I think some of our employees have been colluding with our competition. Get to the bottom of it.", I'd be fired within a month if I had nothing to report. Maybe a week. It does not take forever to find shit out. It's time to move on for God's sake.

The number one issue we have right now is the press. They are spinning everything so hard that it is further dividing this country. Doesn't look like it is going to stop. So who knows where we go from here.

Ah yes, the progress of multiculturalism.

Germany Is Now Confiscating Homes To Use For Merkel’s Migrants!

In an unprecedented move, Hamburg authorities recently confiscated six residential units in the Hamm district near the city center. The units, which are owned by a private landlord, are in need of repair and have been vacant since 2012. A trustee appointed by the city is now renovating the properties and will rent them — against the will of the owner — to tenants chosen by the city. District spokeswoman Sorina Weiland said that all renovation costs will be billed to the owner of the properties.

May 1993 - FBI opened investigation into Travel Office firings

July 20th 1993 - Long time Clinton confidant and Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster suicide

I wonder what Bill Clinton was hiding...


Wow, so full of conspiracy theories.

Sessions was fired after a probe into ethics violations. If he had not fired him you all would be complaining that Clinton allowed Sessions to get away with abusing his office.

Contrast that to Trump...there was already an investigation into Comey's handling of the Clinton case. Trump did not wait for that to conclude and fired him anyway...But, he also stated that the AG memo's were not what convinced him...it was his testimony that convinced him. And, he also admitted that when he made the decision, he was thinking about the Trump/Russia/Collusion thing. Trump isn't hiding much...he easily implied he was trying to bring an end to the Russian investigation and did not like how Comey was handling it.



So.. when Trump is being honest you still think he's being dishonest... talk about "conspiracy theories"....

At the end of the day, the President can fire the FBI director at any time. So who cares?
