be the only ones enjoying trump's retribution? It's not like they had an active hand in his ascension, other than as a modern day scapegoat to the original, uniquely American bigotries that ancestored our present political climate.

I care not that Comey is trump's current whipping boy. His head was not driven into the pavement. He was not tazed and dragged away in front of his family into the ether.

This action is not a warning of things to come. We're in it. The bodies are piling up.

I agree...Comey should not be attacked by Trump with bulshit charges...it is wrong. Demsrule86 Sep 25 #4

I have a slightly different take on this situation. I hate what krasnov is doing, niyad Sep 25 #20

sure, all of that bigtree Sep 25 #23

This is my take as well. In the past interviews I've seen of comey, he said he wouldn't change a thing. ecstatic Sep 25 #25

It's not going to end with Comey. DemocratSinceBirth Sep 25 #21
