Liberals Hated FBI Director James Comey (Until Trump Fired Him) – Observer

Up until today, when he was fired by President Trump, FBI Director James Comey wasnt particularly popular with American liberals.How the worm turns.Presented without further commentary, here are some quotes about Comey from prominent progressives.

Hillary Clinton, October 30, 2016: Its pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information right before an election. In fact, its not just strange. Its unprecedented, and its deeply troubling.

Michael Moore, November 1, 2016: So Comey will implicate Hillary for crap thats not hers on Anthony Weiners laptop but wont say anything about what he knows about Trump.

Chuck Schumer, November 2, 2016: I do not have confidence in him [Comey] any longer.

The Nation editorial November 3, 2016: James Comey Has Discredited Himself and the FBI

Huffington Post, November 3, 2016: Comey Violated the Hatch Act And Must Be Fired.

Keith Olbermann, November 6, 2016: Nope. Our one bipartisan moment. This mans position at the FBI is no longer tenable. #Comey

Harry Reid, December 14, 2016: Comey, whos of course a Republican[]has let the country down for partisan purposes.

Nancy Pelosi, January 13, 2017: One standard was applied to the Russians and another standard applied to Hillary Clinton.

Adam Schiff, March 2, 2017: I appreciate we had a long briefing and testimony from the director today, but in order for us to do our investigation in a thorough and credible way, were gonna need the FBI to fully cooperate, be willing to tell us the length and breadth of any counterintelligence investigations they are conducting. At this point, the director is not willing to do that.

Robby Mook, March 2, 2017: Its time for Comey to remove himself from this too. His credibility is gone.

Maxine Waters, March 20, 2017: [T]he FBI Director still has no credibility. He needs to also explain HIS interference in the election.

Rachel Maddow, April 24, 2017: FBI Director James Comey would not budge. He would talk about Hillary Clinton being under FBI investigation. Happy to do that. But he would not talk about Trump being under investigation, too. Wouldnt confirm that, wouldnt discuss it at all. They were both under investigation, he would only talk about one of them. There were some Democrats who tried at the time, before the election, back in September, to make clear to him how nuts that was.

Patrick Leahy, May 3, 2017: A cloud of doubt hangs over the FBIs objectivity.

John Podesta, May 9, 2017: The American public is getting mildly nauseous listening to James Comey.
