Indeed. This seems to benefit Comey more than Trump.
Looks like Trump may finally be getting out-trolled.

Politics aside completely...
In private life or public...being on the wrong side of men like James Clapper and James Comey is not a place a President should aspire to be.
I think it was Bush senior who told incoming President Bill Clinton the advice "Don't eff with the intelligence community"..
We will see what comes next.

So Presidents should accept incompetent IC leaders to save their own skin? That's the kind of leader you want?
“I find him to be one of the most ethical, upright, straightforward individuals I've had the opportunity to work with,” the North Carolina Republican said of Comey. “The lion's share of FBI employees respect the former director.”
I am troubled by the timing and reasoning of Director Comey’s termination. I have found Director Comey to be a public servant of the highest order, and his dismissal further confuses an already difficult investigation by the Committee. In my interactions with the Director and with the Bureau under his leadership, he and the FBI have always been straightforward with our Committee. Director Comey has been more forthcoming with information than any FBI Director I can recall in my tenure on the congressional intelligence committees. His dismissal, I believe, is a loss for the Bureau and the nation.”

Bush senior would be in a position to know. Given that family's history and connections, one could almost interpret that quote as friendly advice or thinly veiled threat.

You think James Clapper was incompetent?
James Comey?
On Comey..>Richard Burr, Head of the Senate Intelligence Committee has Republican Credentials like few others..
This is what he said of Comey..
“I find him to be one of the most ethical, upright, straightforward individuals I've had the opportunity to work with,” the North Carolina Republican said of Comey. “The lion's share of FBI employees respect the former director.”

It's a bad (sick) fit. Stupid (bad) choice. He should never have been allowed to run at all. What a pathetic joke.

Presidents should be competent leaders. The rest falls into place without all this bull#. This "leader" is utterly self-absorbed and completely out of his league.
It would be the same as if Jamie Dimon walked into an OR and started to perform surgery.
It's a bad (sick) fit. Stupid (bad) choice. He should never have been allowed to run at all. What a pathetic joke.
And every day that passes with this administration is evidence of his incompetence, his absolute idiocy, and his glaring mental illness. Those who continue to support him become qualified in those same categories. Phenomena that are absolutely self-evident.
It couldn't be more ridiculous.

I wasn't referring to anyone in particular. I just don't think it's a good thing for Presidents to have the understanding that well whatever my IC heads do, I can't oppose them because it could cost me.
Oh, just from Twitter. I'm a quick study.
