Nicolle Wallace Slams DT For Considering McCabe Ouster: Is the President This Much of a Bleep-Hole?

https://www.mediaite.com/tv/nicolle-wallace-slams-trump-for-considering-ousting-mccabe-is-the-president-this-much-of-a-bleep-hole/



Nicolle Wallace had a moment of incredulity Wednesday when she asked the question that a lot of people are constantly asking themselves, even if they already know the answer.

When discussing the political pressure President Donald Trump may be putting on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to fire Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe just days shy of his resignation, Wallace said: “I don’t know how to ask this without swearing so I’m gonna ask you as best I can… Is the president this much of a bleep-hole?”

There are grounds to fire McCabe, who has long been a subject of the president’s scrutiny, before he retires on Sunday. The FBI’s Office of Professional Responsibility about his choice to let FBI officials speak about their probe into the Clinton Foundation. Doing so, however, would jeopardize his pension, and McCabe has been with the FBI for 21 years.

But Wallace questioned the timing of the report, hence the “bleep-hole” question.

Conservative commentator Charlie Sykes gave Wallace a clear answer: “Well, I think it’s been established [that Trump is a “bleep-hole”]. I don’t know [if] that’s breaking news.”

to interfere in any way with our electoral process. That he wasn't fired before would be no reason to protect him now. He would belong in PRISON for decades. And if he wanted to challenge for his pension and the investigation became known to the public, well, it SHOULD be.

Wallace has the typical corrupt conservative talking-head attitude toward these crimes.

Comey's enormous misuse of power turned this nation over to the Republicans and their dark-money masters. Her characterization of that whenever the subject came up was a cheery "Oh, was Comey meeean to Hillary? (laugh)." She obviously thought that way of dismissing this betrayal of our nation was effective because I saw her repeat the same line 3 or 4 different times, and I wasn't watching most of the time.

But Democrats, not matter how charmed, should not Republicans as models for their morals.

And much like the sun rising in the east, you can assume this to be true as a constant.
