Democrats call for special prosecutor following James Comey's firing

Following the firing of FBI Director James Comey, Democrats renewed their calls for a special prosecutor to oversee the Trump-Russia investigation. CBS chief White House correspondent Major Garrett is joined by CBS News Chief congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes, CBS News justice reporter Paula Reid, CBS News justice & homeland security reporter Jeff Pegues, and CBS News political director Steve Chaggaris on "Red & Blue" to discuss the possible fallout from Comey's firing.

This shows that not only truth and the facts, but also justice as well, has no essential consistency or integrity in Trump's mind. Justice is whatever is beneficial and expedient to Trump at the moment, in the situation at hand. After all, "No law shall this man observe" is exactly what Nostradamus said in his prophecy about Hitler. Comey helped Trump get into the White House with his letter back before the election, but in Trump's mind - what the heck does that have to do with things now?

I think that James Comey should be made Special Prosecutor - either him or Sally Yates. Comey's justification and alibi would be: How could I be unfair to you, Donald, when I helped you get into the White House in the first place? Sally Yate's reason for being Special Prosecutor would be her urgency to deliver the news about a compromised Mike Flynn to the White House, which clearly showed that she was putting her country first.

Trump's dastardly duplicity in the firing of James Comey may even exceed that of Richard Nixon in his infamous Saturday Night Massacre.
