Now, I know all you good little right wing sheep think Mr. Trump's firing of Comey was appropriate and that any objections are simply the responses of sore losers over the last election (sort of the moronic response typified by the administration--i.e. Kelly Ann Conway).
However, since none of seem to have the capacity to question the actions of a Republican President who is unqualified for the job (yet you are quite capable of questioning a Democrat who is unqualified)...here are some basic questions for you to consider followed up by the very basic point that shows what a terrible leader/manager we currently have in the WH:
1. Why fire Comey now? (there is no pressing issue, there is no immediate conduct unbecoming that warranted an immediate dismissal)
2. Why was Comey not recalled to DC to be told in person by the boss that he was being let go? (Christ even the manager of a McDonald's fires people in person.)
3. Why wasn't Comey given the opportunity to resign? (Flynn was able to resign after lying to everyone in the WH...why was Comey fired?)
And here is the most basic relevant item that none of you sheep are considering: https://oig.justice.gov/press/2017/2017-01-12.pdf
Director Comey was under a DOJ Inspector General investigation for his actions during last year's campaign. That investigation is not complete. Mr. Trump nominated and the Senate approved a deputy to Mr. Sessions. The new deputy was approved two weeks ago and yesterday wrote a letter recommending the firing of Mr. Comey?
Why not wait till the IG investigation was complete?
Why? Because firing Mr. Comey distracts from the Russia investigation, throws a monkey wrench into the next scheduled testimony of Mr. Comey and, with a new FBI director has the potential to completely derail the investigation...
