So FBI director better be loyal to the president, right And I believe that is OK with so called nationalist as long as it is a republican president in the white house
How would you know that? Are you a Russian spy with nothing better to do? Sure Comey screwed up but no one believes Trump fired Comey because he mistreated Hillary. That's just way too comical. Obviously, it's three things. Russia, Russia, Russia. In the end, this will backfire on Trump though.
Anyone watching the news saw all the Democrats, and liberal pundits calling for the firing of Comey in October-November. I didn't say Trump fired him over Hillary, but it's worth noting he would have been fired immediately had Hillary been elected.
Still can't bring yourself to vote for the Constitution, eh?
I don't have to vote, I said it in my post, or did you miss that part?

Your deflection fails.
There were much more important things for Trump to worry about, like I don't know, like getting his cabinet members in place, and worrying about policy. Comey got what he had coming, everybody wanted Comey gone, but the dems who wanted Comey out most of all, are now whining. Oh well, par for the course from the deranged Trump haters.

The question is, should the FBI director be loyal to the president or the US Constitution? I notice you haven't voted yet, either.
Once again, not a single Trump supporter in this thread will commit in public to supporting the Constitution.
I think that tells us all exactly what they really believe.
None of that matters. The FBI director is appointed by the POTUS which means he can also be fired for any reason or no reason. That's just the way it works and always will.
You are correct. The problem has arisen in 2017 that the President is not loyal to the constitution, which creates a paradox for the FBI Director.

It is the timing that makes it suspicious. Trump waited until he heard that Comey asked for more funds for the investigation. Trump made it look like a cover-up.
Once again, Trump has brought this all upon himself. He doesn't know what he's doing.

WAIT a minute. Are you saying that he couldn't have taken 2 minutes between holes on one of his golf outings to fire him? He didn't even go to do it in person. Your point would only be relevant if Trump spent a reasonable amount of his time doing Presidential things.
It should be to the US Constitution not the president. Some Trump supporters seem to think the opposite... including Trump himself.
I, ______, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic…
That foreign part is going to be Trump's Achilles heel for the rest of his presidency.
I don't understand where you are coming from this with Comey. Comey lost the respect of his co-workers and many, many American citizens with his debacle with Clinton's mess. It was almost like he had lost any sense of the law.
Comey was a "leftover" and it was time for him to go. I am sure that Trumpm was being told that. Comey should have been loyal to the Constitution and not the Clintons, maybe that is the real question.
Trump will do fine for those that aren't intent on spewing sour grapes. Isn't that what the poll and post is all about in the first place?

That is what this is about, and why I didn't bother to vote in the poll.
Leave it to the Trump haters to whine about Trump doing exactly what they wanted him to do.
