I never worked for an employer that lets you review your own job performance? They may ask for your input to test for your own self adoration, but it is not reality.

To me it sounds like someone got fired and is crying about it.

Not many people get fired and say yes it was my fault. I screwed up. Instead they make excuses. Also many people get fired all of the sudden. They thought they were doing a great job but in reality they weren’t. And it’s not like you’re going to tell the guy hey I’m firing you next week (not in a political or powerful positions). Like a CEO getting released or a CFO. You just have to fire them.

I think he had it out for Trump as soon as he won the presidency. Seems to me he could be the guy the democrats (Hillary’s people) thought could bring Trump down.

If you’re going to rely on CNN I’m not surprised.

That is completely subjective on Comey’s part and typically wrong perception of someone that gets fired. Everyone loves me. Let them eat cake type people. Disconnected from reality.

Everyone in Washington had it out for Trump as soon as he won the presidency, between the Republicans and the Democrats.

But when all is said and done, Comey was fired. He is gone and will not return.

Comey was

This testimony is nothing more than Comey whining about losing his job. Just go away sleazeball.

Great info as always. Just wanted to point out that Comey is having a major “meltdown”. If the former Head of the FBI is losing his mind, what do we think of the Libtards?

It’s all about muddying the waters just enough that this Russia nonsense never goes away.

Not just CNN’s take. AP just sent out a breaking alert on this (the first one from the hearing). MSM will make sure that this is the quote that gets out - and represents this hearing.

I knew they were liberal -— i just never understood how utterly corrupt the media was

Defamation by a public official is a civil tort not easily proven in court. It does however work in a pathetic Senate hearing and in the mainstream democrat media.

Comey used the word on purpose, and needs to be grilled on it. His handling of the Clinton matter was pathetic. The “Russian” probe has more unprofessional and possibly illegal leaks than the USS Minnow. His actions since being fired are also pathetic. His connections with Clapper (a known liar) are troubling.

"poorly led and had lost confidence in his leadership"

Comey's statements are just more evidence of the extreme mental and moral corruption of DC and our national life. Comey makes all kinds of wild assertions.

President Trump does not "lie" if he reports his OPINION and his JUDGMENT that the FBI is "poorly led" and that he has "lost confidence" in Comey's leadership. Those are opinions and judgments. Comey can disagree with them, of course, but it is not a "lie" for a POTUS to say he thinks someone is doing a bad job or is showing poor leadership.

Ofc it is *possible* for someone to lie about their own opinion (say you like the dessert served by the hostess when you really hate it) but in general it is simply incorrect to call someone's sincere assertion of their opinion a "lie."

I don’t trust the FBI at all, Mr. Comey, thanks to you covering up Hillary Clinton obvious and severe felonies.

I think the FBI is utterly corrupt, just like you are.

Nice work, brah.
