Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.)
On CNN: “It is an abuse of power if the FBI was in fact investigating the president of the United States. For the president to fire someone who has him under active investigation is in my view an abuse of power.”
“If there was every any doubt about the need for a special independent prosecutor, which I’ve been advocating for months, there is no question now.”
Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.)
“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.”
Let's see: It took Nixon 5 years of disastrous misconduct to be impeached.
I think Trump will beat that record and be out in under 5 months.
