Trump Nixes Plan to Visit FBI Headquarters After Comey Firing: Officials
by KALHAN ROSENBLATT and KEN DILANIAN
The White House has abandoned the idea of President Trump visiting FBI headquarters after being told he would not be greeted warmly, administration officials tell NBC News.
And FBI agents said that, while many of them voted for Trump, after the president unceremoniously fired a very popular director James Comey few were ready to meet him at the bureau with open arms.
"My sense is most FBI employees feel a loyalty to Comey," one person who works at headquarters told NBC News. "And whether they agree or disagree with the way he handled the email case, like and respect him ... Trump would not be well-received at headquarters."

(6,972 posts)The acting FBI director McCabe's gone soon as well, because today during public testimony today, he contradicted the orange menace's statements concerning Comey. He also said that the investigation that they ARE undertaking is very substantial--unlike what Sarah Hucklenut said today: That the russia investigation was no biggie, wasteful, and that the American people wanted her president to get to work on their issues
Finally, McCabe said that Comey was popular with most in the FBI community.
Yep, these FBI types loyal to Comey are going to go after Orange Menace with a vengeance--I PRAY.
