Sarah Palin calls on Trump to dump James Comey over alleged Clinton ties

Source: Raw Story

Sarah Palin called on President Donald Trump to dump FBI Director James Comey — who she suggested was too closely tied to Hillary Clinton.

Comey confirmed Monday that the Department of Justice and FBI were investigating the Trump campaign’s alleged ties to Russia, but the failed vice presidential candidate and former half-term governor of Alaska questioned his impartiality.

“Why is tainted Comey still part of Team Trump?” Palin said in a Facebook post. “How long does he get to ride the train?”

Palin linked to an article on her own website, written by Lawrence Richard and citing a dubiously sourced Sept. 10 report posted on Breitbart News that allegedly “exposed” Comey’s connection to the Clinton Foundation.

And did NOT announce that Trump was under criminal investigation.

That puts this b.s. to rest.

He seems to be a civil servant, intelligence director, doing his job, wherever it leads, as he said. Difficult job under the most difficult of circumstances. We're lucky to have him.

...firing Comey might be one way for Trump to cut his losses. Not pretty, but since when did Trump do pretty?

when it came time to go after trympty he would not look partisian.

commy had knowledge of the russia implications in the trympty camp, and knew it would be coming to a head after the election. Possibly commy didn't think that HC would actually lose due to his intervention in the election.

I don't like commy and don't trust him, but I do hold out the possibility that his hand was forced on the email election intervention.

BTW, commy looked awful at Mondays testimony. I was shocked, hadn't seen his face since last summers hi-jinks. There is some deep sh*t going on.

Instant impeachable offense of obstruction of justice.

Easy conviction in the Senate.

I don't think she had any relevance in the past election.
