Trump's lawyer told the press today that Trumps tax returns show no income from Russia, with few exceptions.

This whole thing is such a shit show. Firing Comey is a straight up dictator like move. I have no idea what it will take for the die hard Trump people to question the stuff he does.

He did botch the email release before the election but come on man that is not why Trump fired him and you know that. If that was the reason it would have happened months ago. Anyone not being emotional or delusional knows exactly why he was fired

How's that firing work? Does he just get to decide by himself willy nilly, or did it have to through branches of the government?

Senate has to confirm for nomination. President has ability to fire since the mid 60s. 2nd time it's been done. Of course he says it was backed by Jeff Sessions but that dude is a joke as well.

That wasn't the reason e was fired. But the left acts like this is horrible for the man when they were calling for it as well. I will say it looks fucked up

It doesn't look fucked up, it is fucked up and clear obstruction. Also, in the press release it says the Clinton email situation was a reason he is being fired.

And it is not a left/right thing. A majority of Americans agree that this was fucked up, pretty much everyone who just does not take the Repulican stance on everything no matter what. I don't understand why everyone makes common sense a left/right thing. Oh, so you care about the earth and global warming..... stupid liberal leftie. Makes no sense

It's 100% left/right. Of Obama found the cure for cancer the right would have said there was something shady about it. If Trump cured AIDS the left would say he is trying to line his pockets.

Partisan politics is here for a long time with no end in site. If Trump can somehow convince the Senate and Congress to pass term limits on themselves it'll be a somewhat successful presidency in my opinion. We need to get rid of career politicians, they don't have our best interest at heart.

When he was confirmed? Not sure. The firing doesn't need to be, just Trumps call.

And I hear you George, I wasn't saying it's not that way. I just mean why? It is destroying us. Anyone who is thinking without bias would agree this is completely wrong to fire him now. I do not knew why people can't just agree on common sense and I mean us, the general public. Just because politicians play that game they are only able to because they play us and we do not hold them accountable.

I hear ya, I really do. but please don't fall for the narrative that the world is falling. corruption has been going on in gov't since the beginning of time. the odds are it was drastically worse 100+ years ago when there was pretty much no checks and balances or access to information outside of a handful of people with direction access to the white house. People like Trump didn't just appear out of thin air, there have been narcisstic ego maniacs with crazy inferiority complexes since the beginning of time. Guys like Trump survived as long as they did because they could control and manipulate with deception in private business practices. Most people are complete morons, I deal with the uber elite daily and even my whole work crew are in with the trump circle... they aren't any more intelligent than anyone else. they just work the system and take risk more than the average person and of course do shady borderline illegal stuff. anyways, my point is nothing is different now other than we can see it all 24/7 thru our access to basically every word the president says and THATS A GOOD THING! because of this presidency there will unquestionably be a premium put on truth in the future and objective data driven analysis rather than guys who spew bullshit It'll never be perfect but pain leads to progress.

if you want to know what destroys us, it's a lack of passion and desire to grow because we are fat and entitled as a society. and that really isn't anyones fault, its typical of any growth cycle.
