Experts: Comey's firing could be 'bigger than Watergate'

Glenn Carle, a former CIA clandestine-services officer and national-security expert, said it would be "catastrophic" if Trump had fired Comey because he was angry about the FBI's probe into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia.

"Watergate was huge, but it was based on a criminal charge," he told Business Insider. He said Trump's firing of Comey during the investigation would be "borderline betrayal" and a critical threat to national security if it were based on the Russia probe.

Richard Painter, who was the chief ethics lawyer for President George W. Bush, also expressed suspicion about Comey's firing and said Trump's move was an abuse of presidential power.

"We cannot tolerate this — for the president to be firing people who are investigating him and his campaign and its collusion with the Russians," Painter told Rolling Stone.
 
Good one, Billy. You quack me up.

Definitely "Trump's move was an abuse of presidential power." And he should be impeached.
 
Thanks for the fake news!

:lol::lmao::lol::lmao:
So those experts didn't say those quotes? Like which part is fake? Is it just fake to you because cognitive dissonance is painful for you?
Just as the conservatives denied any wrongdoing by Nixon or his men, they will deny any misconduct by the criminals now inhabiting the White House. In both cases their president was and is the victim of a witch hunt.

The truth is a b!tch as are facts.

LMFAO...this coming from you and your Ilk, when we need a fucking score card if you like Comey today or hate him today...



Quit embarrassing yourselves will ya?

It has nothing to do with whether or not dems like Comey; it has to do with Trump firing the person who is heading an investigation of Trump's campaign. It is an abuse of power. .

How Comey’s Firing Accelerates the Russia Investigations


By nightfall, aides to Trump wereconceding to reporters that Trump was infuriated that Comey would not back up his false accusation that President Obama wiretapped him, and that the aides had been trying to “come up with reasons” to justify the firing for more than a week. It emerged that Trump had taken to shouting at the television when he saw reports on the Russia investigation.
 
it has to do with Trump firing the person who is heading an investigation of Trump's campaign.
An investigation that will never end, despite the fact there is absolutely no evidence. They haven't even shown any evidence that Russia hacked DNC computers, let alone collusion. Comey deserved to be fired, he's an Obama stooge.
 
The investigation doesn't stop, Comey can still be called in to talk about whatever. And if anything he's got a bone to pick.

There's nothing here but exposing the left for their illogical hatred, brainless partisanship, and run away conspiracy theories. This is a master stroke by President Trump to expose the left for what they truly are, and what they truly care about. Combined with the dismissal of DNC collusion, tampering, and corruption, it is just adding wood to the fiery demise of the Democrat party in America.

The fact he used a word such as catastrophic and Watergate should give you a clue to the delusional drama contribed as it's the same speach given by a few regular aggitators, in fact many parrot repeat each other as scripted by Moveon and it's wing Resist.
Trump is not mad, this stuff will end up biting Dems in the end. But we the people should be furious as our tax dollars and important regulators, investigative man power and governance is being wasted on a tactical strategy used by liberals like a third grader in a sand box destroying a sand castle getting revenge on the other who built a better sand castle then they did.
Everyone should be mad and ask:
How does it take 7 months to investigate what any half wit can see is abuse of power, distraction from and revenge from Clinton and Obama who by tying the agency's hands keeps them from being investigated for their blatant crimes and corruption.
They think by setting this fake narrative it will be impossible for The DEMONIZED non politician to bring charges on the career criminal politicians. They already proved this point with their fascist comments for a mere firing. Imagine sentencing opponents to jail what they intend will happen?
However they forgot one thing, Pence when given his chance for presidency can get away with it, and eventually a higher Judge can rule for their arrest.
Build the Temple and find out how terribly misscalculating these self serving traitors were. Sentencing will be much more
creative like the days of Solomon.
For example: Like putting them in the same cell to annoy each other.
Bill, Hillary, Monicas Dress as the window drapery, so Bill never hears the end of it.
Place with them Barrack, & nothing to read but Obamas book which he laundered the Iran money through the guise of. Give Bill an off key sax to play,
give Obama a box set of the Nixon Tapes.
Hillary gets one visitor- Anthony Weiner.
Obama get's 0ne non contact visitor, The Half Japanese fiance he should of married if he wasn't so diabolically into image to further his political career. Bill gets no visitors but he does get 1 field trip a year to the 911 memorial so he can contemplate and feel the weight of his guilt on what his pay to play money can cause when you do the wrong favor and don't arrest someone as favor to the Saudis bribe $.bil sheikh mo payoff.jpg

Comey said otherwise. You're lying again.

I've seen opinions all over the board on this.

One thing I'm sure of: As nervous as I was about this guy being in the White House, the chaos so far has been roughly twice what I was worried about.
.
I bet Putin is very happy about the chaos, Collusion or not.
