With former FBI Director James Comey releasing his new book titled "A Higher Truth" next week, Donald Trump has not been happy about what has been revealed. Following his latest series of Twitter rants, the president quickly faced push back.
Slippery James Comey, a man who always ends up badly and out of whack (he is not smart!), will go down as the WORST FBI Director in history, by far!

Trump on Comey
After his election win over Hillary Clinton in November 2016, it didn't take long before questions were raised as to what role Donald Trump played in Russia's hacking of the Democratic National Committee.
Despite his constant denial, an investigation was set up to look further into the hacking. Not long after the investigation got rolling, Trump decided to fire James Comey as head of the FBI, resulting in Robert Mueller taking over as special counsel. Since then, the Russian probe as been the top story in American politics, all leading to the release of Comey's new book that is highly critical of the Trump administration.
The big questions in Comey’s badly reviewed book aren’t answered like, how come he gave up Classified Information (jail), why did he lie to Congress (jail), why did the DNC refuse to give Server to the FBI (why didn’t they TAKE it), why the phony memos, McCabe’s $700,000 & more?

Unbelievably, James Comey states that Polls, where Crooked Hillary was leading, were a factor in the handling (stupidly) of the Clinton Email probe. In other words, he was making decisions based on the fact that he thought she was going to win, and he wanted a job. Slimeball!

With excerpts of James Comey's book leaking into the headlines, Donald Trump took to Twitter on April 15 and didn't hold back his frustration.
"Slippery James Comey, a man who always ends up badly and out of whack (he is not smart!), will go down as the WORST FBI Director in history, by far!" Trump tweeted. "I never asked Comey for Personal Loyalty. I hardly even knew this guy," Trump wrote in a follow-up tweet, before adding, "Just another of his many lies. His 'memos' are self serving and FAKE!"

Not stopping there, Donald Trump continued his attack on James Comey.
"The big questions in Comey’s badly reviewed book aren’t answered," Trump wrote, before asking why he allegedly "lied to Congress" and "gave up classified information." In a follow-up tweet, Trump referred to the former FBI director as a "slimeball."
