Was he afraid Trump might grab him by the pussy?

It is called ethics!! He didnt want to be placed in a position of ethical compromise. That is why lawyers dont have ex parte conferences with judges.

I've been saying this since his election.

I certainly don't agree with Trump on every policy position, but there is a reason why the establishment on BOTH sides hates Trump. Americans of all colors should on this one issue at least be saying "go get them Trump"

Not a democrat. Clinton should not have met with her either. But, argue your point without saying "but he did it". Both wrongs dont make it right. Jumping to unfounded conclusions is not being open minded. I would rather an open minded democrat than a closed minded republican anyday .

Who is he supposed to report to? There are articles stating he told Sessions not to put him in the room alone with Trump again.

And do you REALIZE the implications of reporting that the public right off the bat.
Here people are stating that he flew off the handle when actually he remain exceptionally reserved.





Oh dear.

Of course first of all, we're assuming this is true, which I doubt. But assuming that, are you suggesting that Comey never met one on one with the Obama at any time? Because if he met privately with him even once, there goes your argument.

Oops here's an article describing a private meeting between Obama and Comey in 2015.

Just sounds like Comey didn't fully trust Trump and didn't want there to be a situation where it was Trump's word against his own. Which is where we are.

If true, and if he had so little respect for Trump, he should have resigned.

But he didn't because he had an agenda.

Damn man, people are asked for their allegiance every day in life for something or the other. Asking for anything in life is not the same as demanding it.
Marriage vows aside, I can't recall ever being asked or told to commit my allegiance to a person, least of all a superior. Obligation of allegiance to one's professional and ethical duties is obviously the expectation, but a superior making allegiance to himself an expectation is completely inappropriate and unprofessional.

You don't even know if any of this happened between Comey and Trump."Sources".

And if it did there's only one way it got out..Comey leaked it and should have been fired for that alone. Ethics and leaking don't go together.

But we DO know there was a meeting on that tarmac and no matter what the conversation the circumstances made it HIGHLY unethical. Period.

So he should be fired for something that happened after he was fired?

What are you talking about? And once again, we have zero evidence that Trump asked Comey for a personal vow of allegiance.

Isn't that what the "Pledge of Allegiance" is? An oath of allegiance? I've never been scared when saying the Pledge of Allegiance.


Big difference between pledging allegiance to your country vs. to an individual. I have no problem with the Pledge of Allegiance (other than that late addition "under God") but would never pledge alliegance to a supervisor, even if he/she were the President.
