The future of James Comey as head of the FBI

[Txbluedog]

I think he is pretty secure in his position as head of the FBI for the foreseeable future, unless a President Trump fires him. I doubt a President Clinton could fire him without stirring up a political s##t storm and given his recent defense, I doubt President Obama would fire him anytime soon

1. He will resign

When Hillary wins

I think he knew that well before he wrote that letter.

[MoonRiver]

6. That is a given. eom

[Kahuna]

16. I think so too. If he has the integrity everyone claims, he'll

realize that he does not have the public's confidence and do the right thing.

2. There you go again...let me say this clearly

There will be no president Trump. Comey will resign most like to avoid criminal charges. Comey is toast. He is a partisan hack who got caught.

5. One can never be sure how things in this country will pan out but

when it becomes common knowledge that Comey outed Clinton for more emails while sitting on the Trump/Russia information, I think his career will be toast.
I could be wrong though.

7. President Dump? President Hump? President Thump? President Clump? President who?

[Blue Idaho]

8. He will probably be allowed the courtesy of a resignation

But if he refuses he will be fired. President Clinton (or Obama) will reluctantly accept the resignation and thank him for his tremendous service to the FBI and USA. We are a civilized country after all.

9. If you listen carefully

to the words of the press secretary.
Obama praises Comey but won't comment on the letter.

It sounds like Obama has prepared his speech in accepting the Comey resignation.

11. He needs to resign

And face criminal charges, if warranted and appropriate. Ditto for asshead Chaffetz.

[MichMan]

14. He should be fired the day after the election

President Obama needs to do Hillary a favor and fire Comey the day after the election. That makes it one thing she will not have to deal with when she takes office and it will have a negligible effect on his legacy. The people that support Obama wont care and the ones that cant stand him already have their opinions.

15. This!

Agreed. Obama needs to cleanup before he goes so that Hillary can start a little easy.
