55. I didn't have to denigrate your understanding
Sat Sep 27, 2025, 09:04 PM
Sep 2025

You did that yourself. Anyone who thinks that this is an important issue of the day is missing a lot.

This IS a silly excuse to criticize a democrat. It’s the weekend, a lot of democrats haven’t commented about Comey. It no reason to criticize them. Plus Schumer is Jewish. He could be observing the sabbath. And even if he had, the DOJ is not going to suddenly drop the charges.

And criticizing any democrats because they didn’t do exactly what you what, in the way you wanted and as quickly as you wanted it, IS a purity even if you chose to deny that reality.

I feel bad for Comey SocialDemocrat61 Sep 2025 #42
MAGA fascism has been here before Comey's indictment and it will continue after Comey's indictment. W_HAMILTON Sep 2025 #44
You'll regret the judicial mechanism fostered and perfected on Comey when it's used on those other persons NeoTrajan Sep 2025 #51
