IN TRUMP'S NEW WORLD: IT'S DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN

Is this the beginning of a recurring nightmare?
We have a president and his cabinet under investigation for alleged wrongdoing and he fires the man investigating the case.
At first, when FBI Director James Comey announced that they were investigating his political opponent Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump praised him for doing a great job. Then, when Comey said under oath that he could not discuss the Russia-Trump linkages because there was an ongoing investigation, he fired him.

On the next day, the White House invites a select media pool to the Oval Office and guess who is sitting with Trump? None other than former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, the manipulative architect of the Richard Nixon White House leading up to Watergate. On the same day, he is meeting with the Russian Prime Minister. It's history repeating itself as Marx said, the first time as a tragedy, the second time as a farce.

We have seen this movie before, and it does not end well. We have already caught Trump in more lies than the press at the time with Nixon. He lied about his business ties with Russia, about the connection between his closest staff with Russian agents and spies, and about just everything from the size of his inauguration crowd to the extent of his business dealing with Russian financiers.

So what does he do a day after Comey asks the Department of Justice for more resources to investigate the Russian connection to the Trump Administration? He fires the guy in charge of the investigation.

Where's Hunter Thompson and The Rolling Stone when we need them?

Just more anti-Trump liberal Democrat bullshit and spin.

Comey lost the confidence of the Washington political establish of both parties. The rank and file of the RBI and the American people. There is no way he could or should continue to screw up the job.

The Dems are using every opportunity to lie and spin anyway they can to damage Trump. In doing so there is great hypocrisy. The Dems have been calling for Comey to be fired, ever since he blew the whistle on Hillary.

Comey deserved to go. He dropped the ball on the Clinton e-mails and didn't have the moral courage to challenge the, then, Attorney General, who was protecting Clinton. Don't think his firing was related to the Russian investigation.

What about Clinton's firing of Sessions. Why do all Democrats want to forget that, especially since it came in conjunction with the "suicide" of one of Clinton's advisors.....whose suicide has been challenged for years.
