In reply to the discussion: My own 2 cents on James Comey [View all]LenaBaby61
(6,974 posts)Comey said that he made the decision to announce that he was taking another look see into Hillary Clinton's emails because he was scared that NY FBI agents (Who HATED Hillary's guts, and who were buck-tooth denture-wearing, cousin-marrying Guliani's thug boys) would be leaking those Weiner emails I mean got damn. Well, that and because he said that he "thought" that Hillary would win the election He reiterated that he'd handle the Hillary email situation the SAME way AGAIN ....
Yet what we ended up with was tRumputin being installed into the White House by hook and crook, and he's totally ripping apart the bonds of this country/the world. Fatso's trashing and lying on Comey. He's lying on and also trashing our intelligence agencies, and all of the special agents/law-enforcement who protect this country. I believe that it'll take this country a LONG time to recover from what's been done to it in the very short time Fatso's been in the Oval Office. And in SOME instances unfortunately (Packing of the various courts with RWNJ/racists/bigots), this country may not EVER recover because many of these judgeships are for LIFE, and many of these judges Fatso's appointing are young. Think about the draconian rulings they may pass down that might cripple this nation for MANY generations to come. Almost hourly lies and scandal after scandal is sinking our nation's political image into the toilet bowl. European leaders won'tever trust, or see the USA the same again because of tRumputin.
Secondly, I don't think that the brain-dead, stupid mistake that Comey made in and of itself cost Hillary the election. It was the cherry on top for a lot of voters--Dems included--who either walked away from voting for her in key states, or who didn't vote period, while other Hillary voters voted for Stein or that dimwit Gary Johnson. Some even voted for Fatso. You had paid in rubles-paid Facebook and twitter complicit in allowing disinformation campaigns to be seen/read on their media platforms. A complicit corporate media who gave Fatso $2 Billion in free air time (Loving the ratings he bought them) & they never really checked him on all of the MANY, MANY LIES he told. Yet, that same corporate media was ham-handed in most cases when criticizing Hillary Clinton over those fucking emails for starters There were GOP-lead voter-suppression drives in key states that Fatso just happen to WIN He also won with help from the ruskies And, we still to this day don't know exactly what type of meddling the ruskies were successful with during the 2016 GE to give fatso the presidency. Now what type of meddling they plan to do in the upcoming mid-terms, we have NO clue. The only thing Dems can DO is make sure folks have current ID's, then register other Dems to vote, and get them to the polls to VOTE in HUGE numbers, because we know that the GOP is frightened by the results of those recent special election wins by Dems especially in Alabama, so we know that they'll adjust for cheating windage so that they can keep their majorities in both houses, and from impeaching Fatso because they need him in there so that they can FINISH off the poor, old, Dems, women, children, disenfranchised and it's own voters so that they can reward their rich voters like the Mercer's, Kochs who gave them boat loads of cash for re-election. Some could also be scared, not knowing if or when putin will release Kompromat on Fatso or on them (GOP servers were hacked too), which might be the reason 50 of those sole less, hateful, grifting weasels have or will shortly leave the Congress/Senate. Comey said that he doesn't want to impeach Fatso, no he wants us citizens to vote his ass out (Yet he doesn't bother voting). Well under under normal circumstances that would work. However, with the ruskies & GOP-suppression tactics working hand-in-hand, who knows IF our votes will count so we CAN vote him out? Didn't Comey say that the ruskies meddled in our elections? His statement saying that we should vote the bum out is just TOO simplistic, especially if our votes are meddled with again by the ruskies, or if our votes are collected and NOT tallied properly or they aren't counted PERIOD by the party whose in charge of collecting and counting our votes and who wants to STAY in power: thuglicans.
Yeah, I need to go to BED now after processing Big Boy Scout Comey's "interview."
From what little I know of/about his wife Patrice Comey, she REALLY seems to have much more sense than her hubby Big Boy Scout James.
