What precedent of private meetings are you talking about in terms of Comey starting it?
Comey tried his best to keep Sessions in the oval office, but Trump told Sessions to leave. That was their first private meeting. And Trump invited him to a private dinner in the WH that Comey assumed was going to be a group meeting because a POTUS asking to dine alone with the FBI head was so beyond the pale. Him taking Romney out to dinner is nothing like inviting the head of the FBI to a private dinner in the WH and asking for his loyalty, stop panic wrestling.
You are ducking the question about the precedent Trump asking (passive aggressively) Comey to stop investigating Flynn sets.
You are still believing "lack of candor" McCabe and not Comey, because it suits your worldview.
And no, Mueller and a US Attorney with subpoena power, the ability to raid people's offices and residences in Trump's orbit, and the ability to take testimony under oath is sure as shit a million times more dangerous than anything the Clintons could dig up.
Why should he fire Sessions, outside of for recusing himself? GOP senators certainly disagree with you, which is why he is still there.
And you are still ducking my questions about the precedent that all of this sets for a POTUS.
That was not their first meeting. Perhaps you missed in Comey testimony, he was the first one to initiate a private discussion with trump. It was when discussing the Steele dossier with trump for the first time. So it was Comey who set the precedent of meeting in private. This was also nothing new for Comey, as he met privately with obama as well, he just happened to lie about that in his testimony. So, you can’t really blame trump, someone with zero political experience to know it’s not okay to meet privately, when in fact Comey requested a private discussion first.
There is no precedent set by the president telling the fbi Director that Flynn is a good guy, and he hopes they’ll be lenient on him. Again, if he ordered him to stop the investigation, that would be setting a precedent.
To your point about Meuller, that’s also wrong, as Meuller cannot break the law to dig up dirt on trump.
He should fire Sessions because he’s been doing a terrible job at investigating blatant violations of the law by “the good ole boys club”. Yet I’m supposed to be surprised that the “good ole boys club” wants to keep him around???
Lastly it’s impossible to duck your questions about precedent, because as of yet the president has set none. Despite the fan fiction you read in the propaganda rags, Trump hasn’t fired anyone.
Listen, I know we disagree on a lot. But when Trump is wrapping up his term, and he’s faced no charges, you’ll realize I’m right. And to be clear, none of the big players on the left will be held accountable either, because that’s how Washington works.
Btw, I hope Meullers Investigation strikes a little fear into the hearts of members of both parties who’ve been peddling foreign influence in our politics.
