Fire away, Orange Shit Gibon. It lets President-Elect Biden set one more piece to wipe away the tarnish done by this maladministration.

Remember those dear innocents who said he wouldn’t set fire to the house on his way out the door?
This lunatic has access to the nuclear codes.

Fat Nixon doesn’t understand that firing any agency head will not make his crimes go away.

White House lawyers are reportedly worried that firing Wray, who has infuriated Trump by debunking the President’s falsehoods about mass voter fraud and not opening an investigation into Hunter Biden before the elections, would give a similar appearance of punishing a non-partisan intelligence chief for being insufficiently loyal or for refusing to boost Trump politically.
And what punishment did that lead to? What political price did he pay for that move? Because this really doesn’t make any sense to me at all. The real reason they don’t want him to fire Wray is because they don’t want to give Biden the opportunity to appoint his own FBI Director. That’s what this is about. They’ve never given a hot diggity damn about appearances. Please. He lost.

“If the President doesn’t have confidence in someone he will let you know,” Deere said. “We have no personnel announcements at this time, however keep you eyes on Twitter for official presidential communications”

Axing Wray isn’t a fire. It’s a gift.

Well, please don’t spoil the surprise. I’m kinda hoping he won’t understand that. One of the funny things about Widdle Donnie Two-Scoops is that his personality disorder renders him almost entirely incapable of evaluating consequences.

If Trump wants to get back in form, he should ax him… Via Twitter of course:
YOU’RE FIRED…
Although if Trump did the tweet it would be:
YOUR FIRED

I know a guy who visited a local AT&T cell phone store to browse the new iPhones. He gave them a thorough inspection. So thorough, in fact, that he set reminders on a handful of them for 12:01PM on January 20, 2021. The reminder: to fart in Donald Trump’s mouth.

“The impression.” Like, a vague sense that something might be true. 
Anyway, Trump should totally fire Chris Wray. Joe needs to clean house at the FBI anyway, starting with the New York field office.

December is a 31 day month so it’s one month and 3 days. Even better!

While Wray is probably the only competent member of the Trump regime, does anyone really care if he’s fired? That’ll let President Biden name a new FBI head.

Remember that when the story comes out that someone in the WH tried to convince 45 of NOT firing some one…they get fired anyway. The last one was Barr. Remember he was looking for a reason to fire him. Now it is Wray. He will be sent away before the end of the month.

To fire is to Dominate, for Trump.
In his lizard brain, he dominated far more than Barack.

“If the President doesn’t have confidence in someone he will let you know.”
So far as I know he hasn’t said anything about me recently.
Just sayin’.
