Republicans Join Democrats Criticizing Donald Trump’s Decision to Fire James Comey
Breitbart ^ | 10 May 2017 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 05/10/2017 11:14:15 AM PDT by Trump_vs_Evil_Witch

Congressional Republicans were shaken by the news that FBI Director James Comey was fired, as many of them sided with their Democratic colleagues in questioning the decision. “While the President has the legal authority to remove the Director of the FBI, I am disappointed in the President’s decision to remove James Comey from office,” Sen. John McCain said in a statement, repeating his call for an special congressional committee to investigate Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election. Senate Intelligence Committee chairman Richard Burr said he was “troubled by the timing and reasoning” of Trump’s decision, defending Comey on Twitter as “a public servant of the highest order.”

Time to begin a serious campaign to recall the establishment's Manchurian candidate, Sen. John McCain.....every since McCain's cooperation with his communist captors in North Vietnam the failed fighter pilot's loyalty to the United States has been in question.

John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and the like haven't been considered "republicans" for many many election cycles now. If they are "republicans", then I am not. Where the party leaves me, I stop voting for it.

McCain needs to become a democrat- then he can trash them for a change.

It’s just the usual cucks trying to get in front of a camera as quick as possible. They hate Trump because they secretly fantasize about watching men like Trump screw their wives. Trust me, this is more common than you think.

He is certainly a flake. I think that at a minimum he should switch party’s from Republican to Democrat-(or perhaps a follower of Bernie Sanders.)

Calling McCain a Republican is like calling Casey Anthony a good mother

The faux outrage machine is out in full force today.

A few months ago, the dims wanted to draw and quarter Comey for his comments on the hildabeast. Now he is one of their official heroes?? And of course, mccain has to add his two pesos worth.

The way I see it, Comey has been covering for the Leadership of Both Parties for a Long Time. No wonder they are scared and acting like rabid dogs.

Boo on my senator, Mr Burr

“a public servant of the highest order”? Good grief! I know plenty of county/state employees who are much better than Comey!! Can’t believe Mr Burr doesn’t give them credit, esp when they are in his home state.

I get sick and tired of DC talking about how these politicians have sacrificed by becoming public servants. Heavens!...these politicians love the power and money. They don’t give a hoot about being a servant.
Shame on my senator.

Well someone is voting for them, and those people in SC and Arizona aren’t making any noise.

So maybe people need to start asking where the hell are those people in those states that keep voting for these idiots.

McCain. I’m all in for a citizen movement for a special investigator to probe the long-standing accusations that McCain collaborated with his NVA captors against the United States.

Why not? if McLamebrain can push the Russian connection lie for his own political and personal reasons then the premise that he was a traitor then and now is just as reasonable.

They are ALL criminals.

Comey was their protection.

Trump just pulled the pin on the flood gates.

You are going to see resistance until Trump offers them cover for his agenda.

I’m okay with that

I’ll get my country back and the electoral process will take the garbage out.

Whenever anyone reads a title with “Republicans” in it, it is considered fake news to everyone until we see it is someone other than McCain, Lindsey and Rubio. Then if the article only adds one other person or two, you have to read the exact quote of what they exactly said and decide for yourself. Then its like 1 republican spoke out against this or that... Silly Press. Trix are for Liberals.

There were Russians working in the NVA prison interrogation camps

Maybe McCain’s ties to them should be opened to see if he has been blackmailed for many years
