Wall Street Journal ^ | Nov 3 2020 | Aruna Viswanatha and Sadie Gurman

President Trump has frequently and openly speculated about firing FBI Director Christopher Wray after the election, but Mr. Wray continues to enjoy support from some GOP senators.

Sen. Jerry Moran, the Kansas Republican who chairs the appropriations subcommittee that controls the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s budget, defended FBI Director Christopher Wray in a statement to The Wall Street Journal this week, saying he “has professionally led the bureau through its complex missions to reduce violent crime, combat foreign threats and terrorism, preserve the integrity of the financial system, and protect our children from exploitation.”

This article is a few weeks old but still very relevant. Wray is a swampster supported by swampsters in the GOP establishment.

The deep state is bigger and more powerful than I ever imagined. And this leaves me profoundly sad, and feeling helpless.

If we lose the WH then maybe he’s a better class of scum than Biden will install. But not by much.

What they did with the Hunter laptop is criminal.

What do they mean "but"?

If Wray is fired he is gone!

RINOs don't have a vote.

Does it matter? The President doesn’t need approval to fire the FBI Director, does he?

How does the Senate supporting Wray or anyone else for that matter prevent the President from firing him?

THIS is the damage the deep state suckbags have wrought on the FBI.

In my lifetime from respected and trusted, to disrespected and distrusted.

It’s a public signal to the FIBBERS that they are free to continuing to obstruct POTUS.

The GOP Senate is publicly endorsing Wray’s obstruction of POTUS and all 35,000 FIBBERS can see those smoke signals. This is how the coup works.

Bush League Republicans have been sabotaging President Trump from the start.

Tough luck. If the guy isn’t doing his job then he goes.

Biggest tragedy of Trumps first terms was some of the initial hires such as this piece of crap. It has handicapped his entire presidency and has more than likely allowed for the election fraud to be perpetrated.

That's it - you fire him and Biden puts in somebody like McCabe.

Wray can be dealt with later, if the courts rule in Trump's favor.

Incredible. He has stonewalled the GOP at every turn, refusing to turn over documents, but the GOP supports him.

Of course they do.
