What do liberals think about Trump's statement he was spied on now?

[AntonToo]

Sorry, the letter is clear, it wasn't his call. He had to turn it over to the AG office, attorneys had to make the call.

Again, you are posting half-baked fantasies.

I've already quoted the letter. It clearly faults Comey's public statements and not his role in internal DOJ process.


The director was wrong to usurp the Attorney General's authority on July 5, 2016, and announce his conclusion that the case should be closed without prosecution. It is not the function of the Director to make such an announcement.

Compounding the error, the Director ignored another longstanding principle: we do not hold press conferences to release derogatory information about the subject of a declined criminal investigation.

 

[struth]

You mean, not publicly disclose it and instead turn it over the the US Attorney? Gee, why didn't struth suggest that...

You never admit when you're wrong, do you?

It's amazing...I am totally agreeing with him and he still can't accept it.

Rod Rosenstein's letter recommending Comey be fired

This is the letter in full by the deputy attorney general, recommending Comey be sacked.

www.bbc.com

This is why he was fired:

The director was wrong to usurp the Attorney General's authority on July 5, 2016, and announce his conclusion that the case should be closed without prosecution. It is not the function of the Director to make such an announcement. At most, the Director should have said the FBI had completed its investigation and presented its findings to federal prosecutors. The Director now defends his decision by asserting that he believed attorney General Loretta Lynch had a conflict. But the FBI Director is never empowered to supplant federal prosecutors and assume command of the Justice Department. There is a well-established process for other officials to step in when a conflict requires the recusal of the Attorney General. On July 5, however, the Director announced his own conclusions about the nation's most sensitive criminal investigation, without the authorization of duly appointed Justice Department leaders.

Compounding the error, the Director ignored another longstanding principle: we do not hold press conferences to release derogatory information about the subject of a declined criminal investigation. Derogatory information sometimes is disclosed in the course of criminal investigations and prosecutions, but we never release it gratuitously. The Director laid out his version of the facts for the news media as if it were a closing argument, but without a trial. It is a textbook example of what federal prosecutors and agents are taught not to do.

Comey was fired for not overstepping his authority and drawing a conclusion, he was suppose to turn his finding over to federal prosecutors to make that call..

He is determined to prove you wrong, even after he had to retreat to exactly what you've been saying,

Great entertainment.

Fired for NOT overstepping his authority? Fired for drawing a conclusion?

It should hurt to be this stupid.

they asked if he was legit…if he wasn’t that would mean they thought clinton was.

You're lying again. You should stop.

Again, I posted the question. It asked if people believe Democrats accepted the results of the election. It didn't ask Democrats if they had or had not accepted it.

Literacy is fundamental. It's a shame you lack it.

Trump DOJ letter said what I said...Comey didn't have the authority to make the call, it should have been left up to the AG Office.

With that said, on a seperate note, had Obama not been so corrupt, he would have appointed a Special Prosecutor....especially after Lynch got caught meeting privately with Bill Clinton on the subject.

But we know that wasn't going to happen

What stopped the Attorney General from indicting Clinton?

 

[Faun]

A distinction without a difference. Obviously the RCCT is polling badly, which is why you fascists are looking to rewrite history and pretend that you never suggested Russia rigged the election for Trump...

Did Russia Affect the 2016 Election? Itâs Now Undeniable

In the wake of the Mueller indictment of a Russian troll farm, any attempt to claim that the 2016 election wasn’t affected by Russian meddling is laughable.

Rasmussen Poll: Most Democrats Still Believe Russia Stole 2016 Election From Hillary

“Fears of Russian interference in U.S. politics remain widespread, and Democratic voters overwhelmingly agree with Hillary Clinton that Russia is to blame for her defeat in 2016”

Of course there's a difference, ya lunatic.

It's like asking Republicans, are Republicans insane. The vast majority would likely deny it. The question in the poll above is like asking everyone, do you think Republicans are insane. The results would be significantly higher.

1) Lynch? because she was corrupt

You've been lying all day about Russian Collusion. Obviously some Reich polling drove your masters to program you to lie about your pet conspiracy theory.

Of course you're lying. I copied & pasted the question asked in the poll verbatim. Even after you read the actual question, you tried spinning it into a question which wasn't asked in that poll.

1) Lynch? because she was corrupt

You know Lynch was not the last Attorney General, right?

So let's try this again...

What stopped the Attorney General from seeking an indictment on Clinton?

she was resigned Jan 20, 2017. She was the obama. AG the entire time this investigation was going on…

Sadly, you're lying again. What I "promoted" in that post were some things from the Steele Dossier that were verified.

One was Trump maintains ties to rich businessmen from Azerbaijan.

^^^ That's not even about Russia.

Another was the Kremlin targeted educated youth and swing state voters during its cyber attacks in the 2016 campaign.

^^^ That's not about Trump

and the third was former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page met with representatives of Russian state-owned oil giant Rosneft.

^^^ According to the Trump campaign, Carter Page was not even working with them, attending only one meeting and never meeting Trump.

 

[Faun]

the poll ask what i said

LOL

You're fucking deranged, MadCow.

MadCow: they [the poll] asked if he [Trump] was legit

Actual question: Do you think the Democrats have accepted that Donald Trump won the election fairly and is a legitimate President or do they not believe he won fairly and that he is not a legitimate president?​
