RE: Trump Watch activated! - 0762 - 20-04-2018
Watching a bbc interview of James Comey and worth watching as Comey expresses his great concern of Trump's potential to attack the rule of law and corrupt America's 'core values', Comey definitely an honourable man with genuine concerns re this maverick of a US President. The suggestion of Trump taking up a 2nd term of office is alarming TBF! Then Trump's ex adviser, Scaramuche, who only lasted 10 days with Trump, brought on to comment and trying very hard to carry out a 'character assassination on him. This guy just comes over as a scumbag and possibly a mobster in disguise - first impressions normally 'tell a story'!

Meanwhile Trump and his 'mobsters' open up an anti Comey website which an American political analyst described as a 'deceit domain' - full of the usual lies and negative insinuations! This is Trump 'in a nutshell' and he would never have been a US President if he'd conducted a proper 'presidential campaign' - he won it on a campaign of shitmongering! I'm sure his supporters don't even read most of the shit he utters! They just believe it!

I’m currently reading Comey’s book and there is only three chapters about Donald Trump. With how his cronies and Fox News have been going on about it, you’d think the entire book is about him. The book is about Comey’s time in Government. Working for Rudy Giuliani to bring down the Mob, working as Deputy Attorney General in the Bush Administration and then working for Obama. It’s 200 pages before you get to the orange orangutan.
James Comey’s memos have also been released and they back up the areas that Comey discusses in his book. Trump’s fake news witch hunt against Comey and wanting him in prison is becoming more pathetic every day that goes by.

Aye! We know 100% who the real 'good guy' is in this story and it is indeed pathetic esp from a US President! IMO unprecedented, no pun intended.

And yet ironically this is the guy that had a hand in helping Trump beat Clinton when he announced just before the election a further investigation into her emails!! That certainly gave more credibility to what Trump was saying about her at a crucial time and certainly had an effect in the close states that he eventually won in the election.
RE: Trump Watch activated! - 0762 - 22-04-2018
Oh yes! But in Comey's recent bbc interview he emphasised there was no political motive for this action, it was all to do with the 'rule of law' and how to apply it. He was also well aware of Hillary Clinton's rueful comments re the significance of this action. IMO he was 'played' politically by the equivalent of a bunch of unscrupulous gangsters and he sounded regretful re 'making that call' and uttered what I perceived to be an implicit apology to her in an intractable situation for him and the FBI. He refuted any suggestion of 'taking sides' on it. The man is a law maker, an enforcer and definitely comes over as a good guy. Trump and his entourage are the exact opposite - how sickening and Comey describes them very accurately in his book!
RE: Trump Watch activated! - WBA-Josh - 22-04-2018
James Comey is definitely not a Saint. He made mistakes but I think the reason why he is gaining plenty of support is the way in which he went about his work. He went about his work in the way you’d expect someone in his position to do so; Straight shooting down the middle with everything he did about what was best for the country and people rather than what’s best for the party. (Something that can’t be said about some of the current Administration)
It’s a shame his Government career ended in the way it did with his firing by the Orangutan. Anyone with half a brain can see through Trump’s bullshit and lies. It’s a shame that a good percentage of Americans can’t and will hold what Trump says against a good man.

And the Stormy Daniels affair unfolds even more embarrassingly for the 'trumpet man' as he is compelled to admit that he did indeed loan money to his cohort who 'paid off' his antagonist. However, this faux pas was carried out during his active US election campaign! The man is clearly a serial liar - no surprise there but coming from an active US President!?

Now the loony 'trumpet man' reneges on the Iran deal (can't tolerate another Obama inspired agreement eh) and sides with two of the biggest aggressors in the Middle East, Israel and Saudi. Israel's aggressive policies in the occupied territories continue with US endorsement and as for Saudi, there is enough condemnation of the British govt with millions of critics telling them to GTF away from dealing with Saudi and stop selling arms/ordnance to these ####s! It is noticeable AGAIN that nobody in the media highlighting the fact that Israel has nuclear capability, something that was rightly exposed by an individual, Modechai Vanunu (well done that man and at huge personal cost!) who was incarcerated by the Israeli govt until 2004 and then suffered harassment for years! Hypocrisy prevails regardless! The critical comment from various sources that America is not to be trusted is absolutely 100% accurate. Change a president and all honoured agreements can be ripped up - what a joke and no credible governance in this kinda nonsense! Lastly the cynic in me noting that the price of crude oil has consequently risen - Trump seen his elite cronies satisfied eh while a lotta drivers 'coughing up' at the fuel pumps!

I'm clinging to the hope that the US porn star stormy daniels might bring this malevolent arsehole down.
