Democrats Wanted Comey Fired -- Until Tuesday | LifeZette
Trump took the Democratic opposition to heart and decided to do what Democrats asked and fired Comey. Trump reached across the aisle and showed respect for their opposition and decided to fire Comey. Now those same people who pleaded and begged Trump to fire Comey are outraged. I need help trying to understand; I thought the Democrats stood for ideals and values that are cherised by all Americans but it's starting to look like they're blindingly attacking Trump for doing what they asked."I do not have confidence in him any longer," Schumer said of Comey, on Nov. 2.
"Maybe he's not in the right job," House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told CNN on Nov. 2.
Clinton adviser James Carville went so far as to bizarrely suggest Comey, House Republicans and the KGB (disbanded during the collapse of the Soviet Union) were in cahoots to elect Trump, during a Oct. 31 interview on MSNBC.
“This is not fake news. Intelligence officials are hiding connections to the Russian government. There is no question,” then-Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid said in a Dec. 10 interview on MSNBC. “Comey knew and deliberately kept this info a secret,” he said.
"I called on FBI Director James Comey to resign his position after his recent communication with members of Congress regarding the bureau’s review of emails potentially related to Hillary Clinton‘s personal email server," Cohen wrote in a Nov. 3 op-ed published in The Hill.
“The FBI director has no credibility,” said Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), according to CBS.
“My confidence in the FBI director’s ability to lead this agency has been shaken,” said Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Georgia).
"If the election had been on October 27, I would be your president," she told a women's conference moderated by CNN's Christiane Amanpour on May 2. "It wasn't a perfect campaign, but I was on the way to winning until a combination of Comey's letter and Russian WikiLeaks. The reason why I believe we lost were the intervening events in the last 10 days."
