and this from the great, *gag* James Comey.......

[a kennedy]

Former FBI director James Comey said in a radio interview Tuesday that he hopes President Donald Trump is not impeached because it means American voters would be “let off the hook.”

Comey was fired by the Trump in 2017 and has since been a staunch critic of the president, but reiterated his view that removing Trump from office before his tenure is completed is the wrong move.

When asked about impeaching Trump, Comey answered that “as a citizen, I hope not because I think the American people would be let off the hook."

“A lot of his supporters would think some kind of coup had taken place," Comey said during the interview with California radio station KCRA. "We need to take responsibility for this and vote next November, and show we have a certain set of values and we insist that our leaders reflect those values."

1. Fuck that guy. Seriously.

[JDC]

11. Completely agree

[Hortensis]

2. Is he worried about what TrumpCo might reveal?

Very interesting term, "let American voters off the hook." Yes, in a very real sense we deserve what we get, but it never gave the FBI the right to use our weaknesses to subvert elections.

3. A Republican through and through

Comey was never going to be a hero in this story.

In fact, when he had the extraordinary one-on-one meetings with Trump, the only reason he wrote contemporaneous memos was to cover his own ass. He perceived Trump as the criminal that he continues to be.

In the end, forget about Russia. Comey should be ostracized and criticized for his interference in the 2016 General Election.

4. "....I think..."

WE think we no care regarding what you think. Why is this so difficult for you. See ya l8r, bye. Take a hike.

5. Comey's correct

63 million voted for Trump. They need to understand how callous and dumb that was and how much harm it's done. Then they need to reverse their votes and change their attitudes toward the solemn responsibility of voting, ensuring the survival of our democracy.

6. He is correct and magats will never change.

He knows that.

[Vinca]

7. Comey's the reason we've got this problem.

[Skittles]

10. there are many reasons why we ended up with Trump as "president"

one of them most certainly was Comey talking bullshit about Hillary's emails WHILE KNOWING Trump was colluding with Russia

Comey has never explained to my satisfaction why he did that; FUCK HIM.

15. comey just didn't want

Sorry about the Vid.. so much for Comey knowing what he's talking about.

[FiveGoodMen]

9. So, what's impeachment ever for, then, Jim?

(Who started this whole god damned mess)

[Wellstone ruled]

12. Jim Boy just does not get,

his personal Ego about his Directorship clouded his ability to seek indictment of Trump and his Campaign for crimes against the USA. His protecting a few Agents in New York was more important to him than his oath to the Nation.

Hoover had his skeletons,but at least he did not shit on his Oath,Comey had his ego to protect and he shit on his Nation.

[Wounded Bear]

13. Impeaching Trump proves that Comey was wrong when he kneecapped Hillary...

[a kennedy]

14. and I'm still so pissed off about that.

[Skittles]

17. Hillary was held to impossible standards, while Trump was held to no standards at all

FUCK Comey

[a kennedy]

18. I know.......

[NCLefty]

19. Yeah, he said that before. Let's be honest: It's not like his judgment has been spot-on.

I appreciate where he has tried to help, but now he's just a citizen. He may know a lot about the law but impeachment is a political process. He's entitled to his opinion but Nancy has the ball now.
