If the vicious little troll playing attorney general was involved, be assured that there is nothing noble in the motivation

You're living in a fantasy world. Reality will intrude, hopefully sooner than later. Justice will come to this gang of criminals. Then what will you and your skinhead pals do?

Last time I checked, Trump was associated with the Trump campaign.
...and Comey confirmed to Trump that Trump was not one of the individuals under investigation.

See? That wasn't that hard.

From someone who served with integrity in the last three Republican administrations:

"Don’t Be Complicit, Republicans"

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/10/o...fired-fbi.html

President Trump’s firing of James Comey, the 7th director of the F.B.I., was an abuse of power. Republicans — Republican lawmakers and especially the congressional leadership — need to say so. But that is hardly enough.

Words must be followed by actions. At a minimum, Republicans must insist on a congressional select committee or independent commission to investigate Russian influence in the 2016 presidential election and any collusion between the president, his associates or campaign officials and Vladimir Putin’s Russia. What is now in the shadows needs to be brought into the light.
