Trump Jr. Rips into Comey: ‘You’re the Head of the FBI, You’re Not Some Baby’

Donald Trump took away James Comey’s job, now his son will take away any semblance of dignity he has left. In an interview with Judge Jeanine, Trump Jr. laced into Comey, mocking the former FBI head and flat out calling him ‘dishonest’ and of ‘bad character.’

“He has proven himself to be a dishonest man of bad character,” Trump Jr. told Jeanine Pirro on Fox News. “They spent 10 months chasing a rabbit down a hole with the sole purpose of taking down my father.

“We were vindicated.”

“Of all the things that were leaked, the only thing that wasn’t leaked was that Trump was never under investigation,” he said. “Because there is nothing there.

“How come that’s not leaked?

 

Trump Jr. hit Comey with a verbal gravity hammer, saying “I think his divisiveness, the way he handled things, everything that leads up to this that we’ve seen over the last few months, and now that we know how he handled the Loretta Lynch thing, explains perfectly why he totally should’ve been fired.”

Judge Jeanine posited the idea, in light of the revelation that Comey had leaked to the NY Times, the possibility that he had leaked to the media in the past.

Trump Jr. concurred, “I think almost without question. He said he’s a leaker. You know, if he did it this time, how many time did he do it? I wish there was a follow up for that.

He added, “If the head of the FBI is saying ‘well if I was a stronger individual, I may…’, give me a break. You’re the head of the FBI. You’re not some baby, pretending, like, does anyone believe this? And if he is, he’s that guy? He’s not strong enough to say something that he believes is right that he goes and writes a memo and then leaks it to the NY Times? I mean, I can’t imagine anyone actually believing that that happened.”

    The fact that nobody is being punished and being made an example of will not discourage the pinko apparatchiks within the government and deep state from undermining Trump’s administration. All the bolshevik loyalists are still embedded in senior positions and they will continue sabotaging Trump’s authority since it’s clear there are no consequences to their actions. Trump is weak.

    ALWAYS avoid the facts leftists… Always. Was HUSSEIN Obama’s father a Muslim Froggy? BOTH his fathers? Yes or no? When did the Media hold Soetoro or his administration to account? Yet Trump has been the focus of a political WITCH HUNT. Let the man run the country and DO HIS JOB!

      I don’t care about his fathers’ stated religion, but it was interesting that the MSM avoided fully covering all the colorful aspects of Obama’s background.

      Anyway, I assume that intelligent people who are ambitious will proclaim themselves to be of the predominate faith of the country in which they are trying to succeed. And because they are intelligent, the don’t buy into the bs of any organized religion. So unless there is evidence that they are actually true believers who put the dogma of other men over heart and logic, it’s a not-issue for me.

        YOU may not care, but Islamists do. Hussein Obama left a MESS for Pres Trump and the fact is under Islamic law a child with a Muslim father IS a Muslim. Trump was blamed for accusing Obama for being one – was that a fair criticism?

          Obama left Trump a record high stocked / housing market, low interest rates, sub 5% unenjoyment and 12 year low gasoline prices. He also left him with big, fat softballs floating toward him to re-tool healthcare, tax code and infrastructure.

          It doesn’t matter if Obama is a Muslim or if JFK was a catholic or if Hillary and Trump are Satanists. We live in Merica with the separation of church and state. Take that savage, mooslum father-law bullshit back to Jihadistan. And quit blaming Obama / Clinton / Deeped steaks for all of Trumps incompetence.

          Yes it was fair criticism. The audience that Trump was addressing knows Islam as a faith that one chooses to practice, or chooses not to practice — – not as your who’s-your-daddy crap. Words mean what they mean to the audience, no matter what your data mining would have them mean.

          So Trump was spreading FUD … probably to get his orange mug on the front page and to play to morons who call Obama by his middle name.

    While the Trump family celebrates ‘total vindication’ this weekend, the president is almost certainly under investigation for obstruction, witness intimidation and tampering with evidence at this point. I wonder if Coats / Pompeu / Rogers took a loyalty oath? In any case, there has probably been a Flowers By Irene van parked in front of the white house for weeks.

    If Trump limps into the August recess with his numbers closer to 30 than 40 (which he will, because of his child-like handling of the Russia probe) the GOP will start jumping ship. The Trump strategy (assuming there actually is one) has gone completely off the rails at this point. They needed a large terror attack around the time of the inauguration or a +10 point popular vote victory to goven this way. He should have started with tax reform and infrastructure in the beginning to lure independents and democrats in and saved muslim bans and gutting healthcare for the next inevitable crisis.

      “Popularity polls” are an absurd measure of leadership and almost certainly meningless……but lets assume that “popularity” is indeed important………I don’t see any of these haters point out that Bill Cinton’s populairty was at the same levels at the same point of his first term……..yet I can almost guarantee that someone like Schadenfreude thinks Clinton was a “great president”. It’s interesting watching the uninformed form strong opinions about things they don’t understand.

        Can we just talk about Trump and his agenda for a minute? The election is over, Trump is president and midterms are still a year away. My point has nothing to do with Clinton.

        Here is the point. “Shake up” Washington Trump has aligned himself against, Democrats, (both mainstream corporate dems and hard left liberals), Independents, hard / moderate conservatives (who probably only voted for him because Scalia’s seat was in play), the courts, the press and the ‘deep steak’ bureaucracy, all on a race where he lost the popular vote by 3 million. Nobody could or should try to goven like this in this environment.

        The only reason McConnell and Ryan, (the only real allies he has in Washington and the only protection he has from impeachment) haven’t jumped ship in full revolt is they are still hoping to use his signature. I tend to think that Trump has already lost any hope of ‘his’ populist agenda getting any traction.

        Recent special election results where the GOP had been polling far ahead have been very close. The special election in Georgia has the Dems up by 7 points. Recent results in Britain and France do not bode well for the surging alt-right / nationalist movements.

        Trump has turned what would probably have been a benign probe of Russian interference into the story of the year. All because he can’t keep his mouth shut and let sleeping dogs lie. Firing Comey in the manner he did turned the volume on this up to 11. He could have found a replacement, asked Comey to go quietly and none of this would have happened.

        At the end of the day, don’t expect the GOP to put POTUS over GOP, especially when Trump continues to somehow make every situation worse for himself and when they have a true believer like Pence sitting in the bullpin.

          Good luck. I may just give up on these people at this site, since no one is interested in the truth here.

          Reason and facts have no weight here. Everything is about bashing Clinton, bashing MSM, bashing whoever said the truth. Of course. How can you defend outright lies and nonsense and the disaster that Trump’s presidency is? You can’t. So you don’t defend it. You just insult people.

            Once AGAIN, frog avoids ANSWERING THE QUESTION; Frog YOU said TRUMP FALSELY ACCUSED Obama of being Muslim, yet under Islamic law if your father is Muslim, you are Muslim.

            FACT: Obama’s biological father and 2nd father later on are BOTH Muslim. Yes or no? Frog will NEVER answer this question folks.

            Frog,

            Huh? are you serious? What part of my initial reply to Schaudenfreude is untrue? Go look for yourself, Bill Clintons popularity rating was the same as Trumps at the same time of his first term. You guys are delusional. I simply pointed out a fact and you all lost your minds. Prove me wrong.

          Agreed, Trump has had his moment in the sun. He will go along with whatever the Republicans can muster but it will be a shadow of what Trump promised.

          HUH? Schaudenfreude (irony) are you insane? Read your initial comment…….the one I replied to…….it was all about popularity polls and how Trump’s populariothy is so low that he wont be able to effectively govern:

          “If Trump limps into the August recess with his numbers closer to 30 than 40 (which he will, because of his child-like handling of the Russia probe) the GOP will start jumping ship. The Trump strategy (assuming there actually is one) has gone completely off the rails at this point. They needed a large terror attack around the time of the inauguration or a +10 point popular vote victory to goven this way. He should have started with tax reform and infrastructure in the beginning to lure independents and democrats in and saved muslim bans and gutting healthcare for the next inevitable crisis.”

          I simply pointed out the fact that popularity polls are meaningless and that Democrat idol, Bill Clinton’s popularity polls were in the same area as Trump’s at the same time during his first term. You sir, have a problem with confirmation bias. When someobody presentz you with factual info that nullifies your thesis, you go on an unrelated tangent hoping that nobody will notice. Thankfully for anyone who cares, your absurd first comment is still here for us all to read.

    I agree 100% with what Lindsey Graham just said this morning. I also think Trump is incapable of heeding this advice.

        Short of war or other national crisis, Trump and his ‘agenda’ is doomed.

        Why did people vote for Trump?

        I can think of 3 reasons:

        1) MAGA – Graham is spot on that MAGA is impossible with this president and his approach.

        2) Trained monkey partisanship is now permanent fixture in this country- People really identify with Trump on a gut level and simply wish to sit around a bitch and moan about Obama / Clintons / Deep Steaks / Washington bureaucracy / unfair media for another 4 years, despite having all the levers of power in hand to do something about it, which might actually take some effort.

        3) A literal destruction of ‘the system’ – These voters seemingly won’t be satisfied until the senate is dismissed, the capitol building is razed to the ground, a lick-spittle Pravda media is installed and a kangaroo court system rubber-stamps executive orders as quickly as they are drafted.

          “a lick-spittle Pravda media is installed and a kangaroo court system rubber-stamps executive orders as quickly as they are drafted.”

          Jesus H Motherfucking Christ …Dude, what do you think has been going on since 9/11 ..through the Bush administration’s undeclared wars,…through the financial crisis bailouts …through Obama administration wars, special operators, drone strikes?

            You raise a fair point.

            The most excessive degenerate executive abuses began under Bush (perhaps further back than that), accelerated under Obama and are still accelerating under Trump. There is no end in sight as people in this country can’t seem to agree if the sky is blue.

            Still, here and in most OECD countries, if you get pulled over and try to offer the police a $100 bribe, you will likely get arrested. This is no small accomplishment. It doesn’t work like that in most parts of the world.

            It is not alarmist to be openly concerned about illegal wars and bailouts, I was simply pointing out that killing journalists and appoint your best friend to a judgeship next level corruption isn’t quite here yet. Some strong supporters of Trump seem to want this.

            Everyone needs to watch the senate. I bet we see the filibuster, Byrd rule restrictions and reconciliation evaporate under Trump / McConnell, in an effort to ‘win’ but will ultimately erode the republic.
