Trump’s attempt to undermine an investigation into the administration’s criminal acts will fail as did Nixon’s.Of course, Comey's abrupt firing by the Trumpster reminds some of us older folks of what happened with Nixon on October, 1973. Firing someone who is investigating you ALWAYS smacks of a cover-up and NEVER turn out too well.
The charlatan, Trump, stated in his letter that he was "grateful" for Comey's absolution in clearing Trump of any wrong-doing in the Russian collusion investigation......which sounds not only of the typical blustering by the orange clown, but also of the typical bullshit that has become common fare from this WH............Of course, Comey may differ a bit in Trump's assessment.
I am actually pleased with Comey;s firing (the guy seems too conflicted) since it will make a special prosecutor appointment almost a certainty. However, a special prosecutor is NOT enough since such a prosecutor's role is strictly on the legality of the possible collusion; what is needed for this issue to be perfectly above board, is a neutral investigative body to collaborate with the prosecutor.
Since the FBI is the best investigative body available, a special branch within the FBI (one that would not report to either the FBI director or DOJ) should be authorized and amply funded and allowed access to any and all previous files.
Of course, Trump could always also resign and save us all this entertainment. I loved the Nixon's disgrace of 44 years ago, and I will love it now. Bring it on.
What criminal acts?
