What has he said that incriminates Trump in anything? Nothing, that's what. |

There has been nothing - NOTHING- that incriminates Trump in anything. I know that upsets you, but that's just how it is. |

But nobody is complaining that he couldn't fire Comey. The issue is whether he use his power as POTUS to stop investigations that might negatively influence him. For the sake of the argument, let's assume that Trump gave a clear order to stop the investigation of Flynn. You'd still see no problem at all? |

And he also just said that the president can direct anyone in the Justice Department to start or stop any investigation anytime. The president has the legal authority to tell the FBI or AG to stop an investigation. In the case being discussed he did not do this, but he has the authority to do so for any reason. |

Legally there is no problem at all. This is part of the power of the presidency. Mr. Comey just testified that the president did not give that order, but he could. |

And the Congress can investigate that and take action if they think it is needed. That is what we are watching on TV right now. |

Comey says he didn't. So for the sake of argument, let's assume that Trump was caught on video whispering to Putin that once the election was over he would be able to do more... You'd see no problem with that? |

I'm no lawyer, especially not in US law, but I doubt your statement. But even if it were technically legal, it would obviously be a grave violation of the rule of law, more specifically, that the POTUS is not above the law. |

My statement is absolutely positively correct. Also, the president is not above the Congress or the Supreme Court. |

A moot point, since by Comey's own testimony, he didn't do that. It would also be a grave violation of the rule of law if he ordered everyone in the senate to go outside and piss on the sidewalk. He didn't do that either. |

And the president can legally end the whole thing by pardoning General Flynn. Does this mean the president is above the law? |

Klaus, Comey himself has already said under oath that it never happened. So your question is based on a hypothetical and not based on any facts in evidence. You may as well have asked me to describe the taste of the cheese on the moon. |

Moonbat, if you were actually interested in the truth you'd be listening to Comey as at this very moment he is laying waste to every single gotcha claim against Trump that you so desperately wish were true. Bahahahaha |

I am listening to him. He said Trump asked him to stop the investigation into Flynn, that Trump asked him for loyalty and that Trump has lied (though I suppose we all know Trump lies). |

Comey says the self-described "Paper of Record", the New York Times got the story about Trump aides meeting with Russian intelligence "almost entirely wrong." To wit: Fake news, again. https://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/872847226493702146 |
