CNN- The White House's explanation for the firing of James Comey is totally unraveling
What the ever-changing stories trying to explain why Trump did what he did suggest is that no one either knows or wants to talk about the real reason that Trump moved on Comey.
And that reason appears to be, according to scads of reporting in CNN and elsewhere, that Trump was angry at Comey -- for not being enough of a company man, for seemingly undercutting his 2016 victory, for dismissing the ideas that President Obama had surveilled him in the campaign, for continuing to push on the Russia investigation when Trump wanted him to spend more time on the number of leaks coming out of the intelligence agencies.
This line, from a piece by CNN's Jeff Zeleny and John King, is particularly revealing:
"Several people familiar with the decision say the President grew increasingly frustrated at Comey after his congressional hearing last Wednesday when he testified that he was 'mildly nauseous' over the idea that he helped sway the election."
Trump, we know, spends a lot of time talking about and thinking about his 2016 election victory. And nothing makes him angrier than when he believes someone is trying to either lessen or take credit for what he accomplished in that race. That, in Trump's mind, is the one unforgivable sin.
....
Why? Because, as of right now, it appears that the president of the United States fired the director of the FBI because he was angry at him for not doing exactly what Trump wanted him to do. And that should be very concerning. To everyone.

Fixed that.
Need more coffee!
I had a huge mental lapse this morning.
Before coming on here, I dumped my cereal bowl full of milk on the living room carpet.
Then, after mopping up, went to get my coffee out of the nuke, and it had boiled over had to clean that up too!
If he made all his decisions that way!
But CNN can't say it like that - yet.
Media here having no problem communicating my interpretation. 
The morning I woke up to hear the news.
You should kick asses over this.
