Is a big deal to some because of ethics issues.
That's highly inappropriate. That's what Trump said-speaking to the Trumpers.

I don't believe anything the Cheeto says.

This is the FOX News and talk radio talking point that they think will deflect attention from Trumps digressions and ineptitude.

No.
Remember that Clinton was the first to be damaged by Comey's revelations. He's why you chanted "Lock her up!" last year. Without Comey, no one would have ever known her email was hacked. Or that it was on a private server. The revelation came just at the time Clinton was leading solidly while Trump was floundering, and they reversed that. From his revelations onward, Clinton's lead evaporated in the places she needed the most to win.

Comey went wherever the findings took him. Clinton first, then Trump. And then Sessions. The list of who's next is still developing. When Clinton was taking the hit, Trump was good with Comey. But when Comey told him he was being investigated, Trump's favor suddenly changed to finding a way to get him out of the FBI asap.


And that's why Trump fired him. Comey was getting far too close to the truth than Trump could stand, and Trump or anyone else never knew when Comey was going to make his kept secrets public.

Comey is no one's safety net. And right now, with nothing to lose, he's the most dangerous man in Washington for the Trump administration. When questioned, he will not lie. And he knows everything.

What kind of help could Trump have received from the Russians? All I hear from the left is Trump is guilty of something, what exactly?

We know what Hillary did. With the email server and the pay for play foundation while she was SOS.

This is how the leftist propaganda machine works. Repeat something often enough and plant some doubt with vague allegations and let the minions put it all together in their heads.

Well, thank goodness we're back to focusing on important stuff like, **** that happened years ago and not what's happening RIGHT NOW IN WASHINGTON.

Me? I don't care if Clinton winds up in prison.

I'm just not in a hurry to deal with old news.

I'd much rather focus on the shenanigans that are taking place right now in DC.

Because this HRC deflection is just that. A deflection.

Let's see who blinks first.
WOW! I didn't know that every Trump supporter could actually interfere in the investigation.

Are you actually serious with such an insane rant?

HELL, even the FBI AD said that Trump firing Comey "did nothing to impede the investigation" and then proceeded to trash several claims the MSM have been hammering such as holding back funds, and also confirmed that "many agents on the HRC investigation team were pi$$ed how Comey protected her".

When this onion gets peeled the left have an 80% chance of getting exactly what they do not want.

Be careful what you wish for, especially when it's smoke and mirrors.

Their tribe has been dumbed down so much over the decades that all critical thought has been bred out of them. Alinsky taught them how to control the narrative by turning all arguments and logic against itself. The irony is that the herd is too stupid to understand that his levels of control started with them. They are sheep to be used.

If somehow successful they'll find out soon enough once the herd turns on them. It always does.

My favorite: A poster wrote this: "Hillary is like a Herpes sore, she never really goes away."

Russia hacking is not happening now. Its also old news. And if Clinton had won I doubt it would have been investigated.

The investigation with Clinton was happening about the same timeline as Russia was suppose to be stealing the election for Trump. Both the left and right are going back about the same amount of time.

It was the left that made the big deal about Trump breaking his campaign promise and not going after Clinton. I think he should fulfill his campaign promise and see if someone not under Lynch's thump might come up with a different conclusion.

So this isn't about possible collusion, it's just partisan revenge to get even for investigating Benghazi? That's close to what I've been saying all along, thanks.
