Trump Mulls Ousting FBI Director For Not Delivering Damaging Investigation Into Biden

President Donald Trump, angry that he hasn’t received the damaging pre-election bombshell on Democratic rival Joe Biden that he’s been pushing for, has reportedly been discussing with aides the possibility of firing FBI Director Christopher Wray for not handing Trump said bombshell in the form of an investigation into Biden.

Maybe the Russian branch of the FBI will step in and help Trump out.

For anyone aspiring to have a career in “Smearing”. Follow Dumbo around for about a month or so. Watch, listen, and learn.

There’s a very large pool to choose from, but Wray isn’t even in the running…

Wray isn’t doing that for the same reason that only very rightwing sites are touching Rudy’s amateurish hitjob. It’s a big nothingburger with nothing but political motivations

It amazes me that 4 years later, all TRump has is to try to duplicate the same storm of bullshit that happened before the last election. He is stumbling around in some imaginary world where in his mind he always draws the inside straight at the last moment, while his reality is that he always doubles down and bluffs his way into bankruptcy no matter how big his starting pile of chips. He is, to use his favorite word, a loser.

Maybe if, instead of the spite politics he’s been playing, Trump actually did something positive for the average voter, he might be able to salvage his run for office.

But America has grown weary of spite politics. Someone in his campaign must know that firing the FBI director for a bogus story won’t wear well. Maybe he sincerely doesn’t care anymore.

Blue tsunami, folks. Wipe them all out, all the way down the ballot.

Yes, even in the very unlikely event that the emails were actually from Hunter Biden’s laptop, so what? There aren’t any emails to or from Joe nor does it say much except that Joe might have met with some Ukranian fellow-so what? The worst you can say is that Joe’s son wouldn’t be where he is today if not for his father. Much like Donnie and his spawn…

This is IF he is reelected. IF he is reelected, of course he’s going to fire anyone with any smidgen of integrity and replace them with more grifters, sycophants, and fools. Who could be surprised at that?

It’s all he’s got. He’s a one trick pony.

And incapable of learning any new tricks.

True, but non-amazing. I would be amazed if he behaved differently,

I think you’re generous – I am fairly convinced there is nothing in his head more advanced that his reptilian brainstem.

Trump has the Roy Cohn he needed. Now he’s looking for his Lucca Brasi.
