When I read that I thought of this.:p

:tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

We're all gonna be ok, kids. Presidents come and go. Soon enough we'll have another one that half the country hates. It's been like this forever. Think about this; Millennials had eight years to go from puberty to college. Obama is who they knew. Resist...resist...resist. It's no small wonder, as to why this country is so divided. My own college indoctrinated, snobbish, coddled, entitled, little prick of a nephew, is gonna find out "real life", when he goes out into the work force. He's got an MBA in business, but he hate the rich and wall street, and anything capitalism. Meanwhile, his colleagues have all gotten jobs doing things he hates. This summer he's gonna move back home with mama and try to figure out how to repay over 100k in debt. I love him, but he is going to get his ass kicked in the real world. Only child, spoiled brat.

Dear G*d no.

We needed less Comey, not more. The guy's a fuster-cluck of bad judgement. He should have followed protocol.

Fuck that. It was about treason/cheating. He should have definitely exposed Mafia Don.

I agree. But some of the pettiness in this book that’s come out about Trump, his orange skin. His hands etc... doesn’t help his argument imho.
Too bad if its tinted like that, would have been better as an objective piece.. That being said the book could also been designed to induce maximum tilt in Trump.. it could be that the it has the target audience of one rather than the rest of the world.

I would hope that we can all agree that Comey either should not have written that letter about Clinton OR should have notified the country that Trump’s campaign was under investigation for collusion with a hostile foreign power. It was inexcusable that he did only one.

That being said, there’s little reason to think he made that mistake for corrupt reasons and he’s a highly credible witness. I don’t think many objective people would doubt his assessment of Trump’s corruption.

Humor and jesting, are apparently, not in your wheel house. I'm not afraid of anything, except left wing nut jobs, of course. BUT...usually the most dangerous person, to you, is the one looking back at you, when you shave.
I like humor. Not so sure about jesting. But what is funny to one person may not be funny to someone else. Also, in order for something intended to be humorous to be appreciated that way it has to be understood, and I certainly didn’t understand whatever you were on about. Same with this second post. Who is the you in the mirror. Were you thinking of you, me, or everybody, because when I look in the mirror I don’t see somebody who shaves?

Also, raving on about how you are fearless and left wing nut jobs sounds unhinged, sort of like childish male boasting and conditioned by brainwashing. For me these are just more signs to cause me to have concern for your condition. You sound a bit like a person with a wheel house full of armor and weapons all designed to fight Yetis. To me it’s like spending good money chasing bad to maintain all of that which, I think may be why it is recommended we stop on occasion to smell the roses.

That sounds like our president man child.
It is a disease endemic in American culture. It's foundational in the culture wars. But note that he loves his nephew with 100,000 in college debt his culture insured they would have if he also wanted to compete at a tough guy level. It's tough to have any perspective or personal insight into one's condition when you have to live a life in total denial of your own personal childishness. Be kind if you can. He loves his nephew. That's what real men do.

Well the Romans would disagree.

Bad leaders can have long term negative consequences.

Any self-professed liberals, progressives or Democrats actually buying this book? I think this is one I'm happy to ignore...Comey doesn't deserve a dime from me.

This book release junket is the one and only time I will agree with Trump that Comey is a smug, grandstanding sumunabitch.
Yeah, I think Comey is definitely self righteous, which explains his actions against Clinton and this book, or at least the timing of it.

All he did was put party over country, same as so many others on the Republican side.

The big questions in Comey’s badly reviewed book aren’t answered like, how come he gave up Classified Information (jail), why did he lie to Congress (jail), why did the DNC refuse to give Server to the FBI (why didn’t they TAKE it), why the phony memos, McCabe’s $700,000 & more?

My god this reads like a desperate Trump tweet. Are you practicing for a job?

Are the memos classified or phony? I like my defamation to be internally consistent.

These guys can’t win anything even though they stack the decks.
Same clowns have been at the heart of every bad foreign and domestic policy agenda for over 20 years.
Let them have some screen time and extra cash on the way out.
Just don’t come back due to book sales thinking anyone wants your whiny ass in power.
