Oh well, Trump and his minions "have their story" now and they're stickin' to it, fascism be damned.

This morning's presser made it very clear what he assumed the response to firing Comey would be, as tho such a move could ever please anyone who is worried about preserving democracy in our country.

That he's now claiming he'd considered getting rid of him ever since the Election...what a friggin' joke...or that his new director will be "more competent" ...the spin is getting so fast, we're all gonna drown.
