Maybe we could exchange Jamey Comey for Sean Hannity? Get both of them off the air. At first, with Comey, I was "Meh, whatever." He screwed up magnificently by placing the FBI's reputation with guys like Sean Hannity over doing his actual job. Comey's decision to publicize Huma Abedin's emails and not their investigation into Russia's work with Manafort, Page and possible Stone effectively made the election close enough to tip it over. (Yes, Clinton was unpopular and made mistakes. But she wins that election if Comey doesn't issue that letter.) He has kinda sorta apologized for that, and he's been a strident voice against normalizing Trump. I'm a big tent kind of guy, and Democrats need people who "look like Comey" in 2018 and 2020.
Fine.
But STFU already, dude. We get it. You read Niebuhr. You've "conflicted." He feel bad "if" your actions made Trump president. But I've heard enough of your sanctimonious whining. You should be wearing sack cloth and covered in ashes. You should give the proceeds from your book to lawyers protecting DREAMers from deportation.
Get off my TV.
And that goes for Sean Hannity, too. He has always been the blustering, bullying id of Fox News. Even more so than the departed Bill O'Reilly, Hannity is the voice of that asshole two tables over in a restaurant hating on "welfare cheats" and "those people." He's the guy Tucker "Panda Sex" Carlson wants to be, the faux tough blowhard.
Lauren Duca said it best, Hannity defending Michael Cohen without disclosing their relationship is "wildly unethical, and also perfectly on-brand for a Fox News host."
I can't wait to find out what sort of "real estate" Hannity wanted help from Cohen with.
