The Comey Firing Circus Begins - An Initial Overview Of Trumps FBI Scandal

Trump doesn't like something and fires a guy in the middle of an investigation of Trump's Russia ties. Clearly Trump is hiding something. Everyone seems to think Trump is guilty and there is certainly no logical reason to think otherwise.

THE SHADY FIRING OF JAMES COMEY 5/10/17 President Trump fires FBI Director James Comey in the midst of the bureau's investigation into the White House's ties to Russia.

Daily Show quotes:

You don't need to be a genius to figure out why Trump really canned Comey. It rhymes with Russia.

Trump's firing of Comey shows us that America really is the place where anything is possible, even autocracy.

Did Trump fire Comey to stop him from investigating? REMEMBER: Pre-firing = Comey investigating. Post-firing = Comey NOT investigating.

Clearly, it’s harder for Comey to investigate Trump now. That's good news for Trump because he doesn’t like being investigated.But bad news for people who think investigating bad things is good (i.e. FBI, Comey, Democrats, law-abiding Americans, etc).

Comey working at the FBI = able to investigate Trump. Comey fired from the FBI = NOT able to investigate Trump.
