Comey to Trump after shootings: 'You owe us more than condolences sent via Twitter'
CNN Politics ^ | August 4, 2019 | Paul LeBlanc

Former FBI Director James Comey, a frequent critic of President Donald Trump, said in a blistering op-ed for The New York Times that Trump's efforts to "exploit the radioactive energy of racism" are "more dangerous" than he realizes.

"America has long had a radioactive racist soup in the center of our national life. Donald Trump thinks he is stirring it for political benefit. He's actually doing something more dangerous," Comey wrote in the piece published Sunday.

Comey's comments come after a series of racist tweets from Trump last month aimed at lawmakers of color and in the immediate aftermath of a mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, where a white supremacist killed at least 20 people in a shopping center -- one of two massacres by gunmen in the US in less than 24 hours. Earlier Sunday, Trump tweeted, "God bless the people of El Paso Texas. God bless the people of Dayton, Ohio," and, separately, ordered American flags to be flown at half-staff as "a mark of solemn respect" for the victims of the tragedies.

Shouldn't he be in jail, not writing opinion pieces?

Comey is right.

Trump owes us more than condolences.

He owes us traitors, seditionists and federal oath violators being in prison, if not executed, for their crimes against the Republic.

This shows that Comey is out of touch. President Trump addressed the nation with his condolences Monday morning at 10 o’clock.

Being so openly critical of President Trump gives Comey the appearance of at least believing that he has done nothing wrong at the FBI and who knows what else. He knows this, and so he just goes ahead "as if".

Yeah I think that’s a pretty good read on it. Comey’s an intelligent enough liar that he’s capable of being all “meta” (as the kids say) like that.

Jimmie, Jimmie, Jimmie. You really should go into hiding in a country where there is no USA extradition treaty

My instincts tell me that the Deep State is not as deep in their thinking as much as they are deeply embedded in the system. I think they can be brought to surface by looking into and leveraging the holes and seams in their facade(s). It’s barely a bubble and will never be airtight, so we should find ways to exploit and exacerbate the flaws in the ‘architectures’ of the Deep State and their partners in crime.

Comey is over there in the corner, stirring his “radioactive racist soup” and muttering to himself (while overheard by some fake news purveyors). Leave him alone; at least he’s not playing with any sharp objects.

On second thought, throw in some sharp objects, and help him put himself out of his misery.
