The Press, especially CNN is absolutely "over the edge" over the firing of James Comey and is calling it a "Constitutional Crisis." Anderson Cooper, interviewing Kellyanne Conway, is beside himself, and gives her and eye roll, an absolutely unprofessional gesture, after one of her statements in Trump's defense. Others are equally unhinged after the events of the week. They insist there is a cover-up taking place, even though, after nine months of 'investigation' they have not found one shred of evidence of Russian interference or collusion with the Russians by the President, a charge that was made by Hillary Clinton, without evidence, and conveniently lent credence when Obama ordered an investigation into the charge.
This is not a "Constitutional crisis." The President acted within his purview. It is the President who nominates the FBI director and the Director serves at his pleasure. That's the simple fact of the matter.
Comey was a grandstander, full of himself, to the point that he wasn't able to do his job in a way that elicited confidence. He was full of contradictions. He was the law unto himself, in the words of one observer. He bent the law to suit his own purpose, even inferring (in the Clinton email probe) that the law required that intent be proven in order to obtain a conviction. It does not.
So now, the liberal press, obsessed with their hatred of Trump and unable to contain it, is even claiming this has cinched Trump's fate, seeming to intend that to mean "he is done." Ridiculous!
The monopoly the liberal Press once had has been broken (Charles Krauthammer), and the liberal media can't stand it. So they go over the top. They make outrageous claims ("Constitutional Crisis") and "Trump is finished."
The Constitutional crisis is Democrats' constituents rioting in the streets, breaking glass, overturning cars and setting fires, because of their dissatisfaction with the election results, silencing any speakers who supported Trump, or are conservative.
The Constitutional crisis is the Democrats actively seeking reasons to remove the Constitutionally elected President simply on the basis that they do not like him.
It's time to get over the hate and act like adults, and work with the President to move this country forward. The spectacle they are creating, in view of the entire world, is not helpful to a country that is the leader of the free world. Without American leadership there would be no 'free world' at all. The world would be plunged back into the dark ages.
Isn't it amazing ! Everyone in the world (except the cult) are astounded by the arrogance and corruptness of Donald Trump, especially highlighted by this very obvious attempt at derailing the investigation by getting rid of Comey, and yet they worry about eyes.
Trying to have any serious, substantive conversations with any of them is like trying to discuss retirement financial plans with a 3 year old. However, Trumpees KNOW what is going on, they have eyes and ears, it is just that they got on this train and it would be a personal failing for them to admit that this train is off the tracks and going over a cliff. The strangest part is, even though Trump also sees where the train is going, he keeps pushing the throttle harder and harder.
"Everyone in the world (except the cult) are astounded by the arrogance and corruptness of Donald Trump, especially highlighted by this very obvious attempt at derailing the investigation by getting rid of Comey,'
And YOU are NOT biased?
"and yet they worry about eyes."
It is another reason why your side has LOST over 1,400 political seats since 2009.
It is NOT "worry".
It shows the bias of the LSM.
In order to have a "free" respected press, the press needs to be neutral in their reporting and ANYBODY with half a brain KNOWS that today's press is so biased that they should have credential pulled.
I find it ironic how some on the left keep posting "survey's" from the same people who were shown to be totally incompetent in their "surveys" during the last election and now those "surveys" are showing the low ratings Trump is getting ( of course those that post them do NOT look at WHO is polled. I have found most "suervey" MORE dems then repubs) and the press has LOWER rating then Trump OR Congress.
Yeah, that's why we cheered when Roger Ailes was let go I guess.
Huh?
What does that have to do with KAC? The point is the right doesn't get to start crying sexism because their girl is a lying snake and some in the media are sick.to.death of her mentioning the GD election numbers (which is what happened in this case). Get.over.it.and.lead.
I know this is like speaking into the wilderness, but anyway...nobody CARES about the Comey thing. Nobody cares about who said what to whom, when.
Most of us in the hinterland just care about the big issues, like how is the healthcare thing progressing, and how will the talks on the President's upcoming trip to the Middle East go, not about the pandering of the lefty news.
As far as I'm concerned, Washington and the whole east coasters limousine liberals can drift off into the Atlantic. They are so out of touch, it's pathetic.
I'm an east coast liberal but ::looking around:: no limousine in sight. I think its really ignorant to say you don't care about the president firing the person in charge of an investigation into WH administration and that you don't care (apparently) about Trump's threat to Comey yesterday morning.
Oh and if us east coast liberals drifted off into the Atlantic, as you so lovingly and patriotically stated, the midwest would be screwed. JUST as if the midwest imploded, the east would be screwed. Stop this divisive BS.
And many on the left have NO CLUE why they have lost OVER 1,400 political seats since 2009!
But I guess it was okay when ya'll called Obama and his wife choice names like secret Muslims, apes, etc right?
