Discussion: ABC Preview Of Interview With Comey Suggests He Likened Trump To A ‘Mob Boss’

I wonder if NBC would let ABC play a clip from that Lester Holt interview

President Trump

He [Rosenstein] had made a recommendation. But regardless of recommendation, I was going to fire Comey knowing there was no good time to do it

And in fact, when I decided to just do it, I said to myself – I said, you know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story. It’s an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should’ve won.

Its probably the nicest true thing you can say about Trump…

Aw, c’mon, George. We know the answers to those question without having to hear Comey’s WeaselSpeak responses.

Yes, the mob has more honor than our Previously Orange Monster (POM).

“Former FBI Director James Comey will compare President Donald Trump to a ‘mob boss’ in an upcoming interview…”

“Donnie Brachydactyls”.

Comey has already ruined his career and reputation. Man’s a fraud. Might as well cash in, hump a book (I’m Innocent, Loved the Clintons), and get on the CNN panel.

Of course, he is – he’s the Re[thug]licans choice for president.

Speaking of NBC… Nobody is saying it explicitly, but it seems like the feds searching Michael Cohen’s properties for information on the Access Hollywood tape might be of some concern to NBC. NBC had the Access Hollywood tape, but only released it right (like minutes) after WaPo did. What were they doing with it before then?

Michael Cohen is the ‘fixer’. We’ve developed a pattern of him suppressing damaging information about Trump during the campaign. Surely the Access Hollywood tape would fall under that category. Trump and his team would obviously have plenty of connections to NBC after 15 years of The Apprentice. So what do you think the feds might be going after here?

She lost MI, PA and WI by 77,000 votes and before that day, she’d been ahead in those states.

Anyone else get the feeling there’s one more word Comey would like to add to this and is too dignified to use it?

“likened Trump to a really, really STUPID mob boss.”

Trump’s King of the Keystone Mob, maybe, but it is hard to see a mob boss reach boss status losing like Trump has all his adult life.

The reporting isn’t able to explain it.

It is not clear what role, if any, Mr. Cohen played regarding the “Access Hollywood” tape, which was made public a month before the election on one of the more memorable days of the campaign. On that day, Oct. 7, the Obama administration called out Russia for meddling in the election and the first batch of emails from Hillary Clinton’s campaign were released.

But

Perhaps equally significant for Mr. Trump was Mr. Cohen’s presence on television, particularly after the “Access Hollywood” tape, when the candidate had few defenders.

“I have never heard Mr. Trump say anything even remotely close to the statements that I heard,” Mr. Cohen said about the tape in one appearance on CNN. “When I first heard that there was a tape that was going to be coming out, I said it’s got to be fake because — and I spend thousands of hours with Mr. Trump a year. And I can tell you I have never heard him say anything, anything even close to that.”

Agree in principle, but that post you responded to counded quite suspicious to me, did you just believe the

injection?
Not saying its certain, but it could be, and at this moment, that is just what Putin’s trolls would want us to divert to. I’d wager “The Clintons” both agree, Comey needs this time to expose Trump, and that discussion you started will always be there to have. I really wish all the people who love the Clintons would listen to them.

Spice it up and let Hillary ask a few questions. THAT would bring in the viewers.

Donald Trump won because a majority of white Americans (left, right & center) voted for a lying racist xenophobic misogynist or figured his brand of politics wasn’t their problem and gave him half of their vote.
