The DOJ Report Didn’t Say Comey Lied. It Criticized the Way He Told the Truth.

Trump, not Comey, is the crook.

“Comey isn’t a crook. He’s a cowboy. Sometimes he ignores protocol or the chain of command to do what he thinks is right.”

“ If Comey hadn’t kept secret copies in his own safe he would have been, at that moment, completely stripped of the evidence of what Trump had done to him. “

“In a way, the DOJ report is poetic justice. It does to Comey exactly what he did to Clinton, publicly detailing his faults and transgressions even though he’s not being charged with a crime. You can argue that he deserves this castigation. But you can’t argue that he’s dishonest. Contrary to the president’s smear campaign, Comey isn’t being reprimanded for lying. He’s being reprimanded for the way he told the truth. “

Good Riddance to Jeff Sessions, Who Made America a Crueler, More Brutal Place

Thousands were tormented by Sessions' bigotry, and our country will not soon recover from the malice he unleashed.

LOL...it’s going to get worse and the resistance by Trump is going to become more psychotic.  So, in the months ahead, what are those who protested their vote in 2016 and independent voters and even bernie sanders supporters going to do?  Are they going to complain?  Are they going to put pressure on Trump?  or are they going to sit back like they always do and eat popcorn and demand Democrats do something to fix the problem they created over the past decade?
