Trump Says ‘Slime Ball’ Comey ‘Should Be Prosecuted’ For His ‘Leakin’, Lyin” Ways

On Thursday evening, as details from James Comey’s new tell-all account of his interactions with President Trump began to leak (get it?), some commentators suggested that because Republicans were set to rally around the President by launching a smear campaign against the former FBI Director, Trump himself might be inclined to take a measured approach by showing some restraint on Twitter.

Of course everyone knew that was wishful thinking. After all, Comey compares Trump to a mob boss in the new book, says he’s “untethered from the truth“, and also alludes to how obsessed the President was/is with hookers pissing on each other. Oh, and Comey makes fun of the President for being “slightly orange“.

In case you somehow missed it, here are some excerpts.

On meeting Trump:

His face appeared slightly orange with bright white half-moons under his eyes where I assumed he placed small tanning goggles, and impressively coifed, bright blond hair, which upon close inspection looked to be all his. As he extended his hand, I made a mental note to check its size. It was smaller than mine, but did not seem unusually so.

What Trump apparently said about the pissing hookers:

I’m a germaphobe. There’s no way I would let people pee on each other around me. No way.

So yeah, there was no way Trump was going to let this go. Cue the President:

James Comey is a proven LEAKER & LIAR. Virtually everyone in Washington thought he should be fired for the terrible job he did-until he was, in fact, fired. He leaked CLASSIFIED information, for which he should be prosecuted. He lied to Congress under OATH. He is a weak and…..

….untruthful slime ball who was, as time has proven, a terrible Director of the FBI. His handling of the Crooked Hillary Clinton case, and the events surrounding it, will go down as one of the worst “botch jobs” of history. It was my great honor to fire James Comey!

Gosh, who pissed in his Cheerios? Oh! That’s right! It was Russian hookers.

I sincerely hope it goes without saying that he isn’t doing himself any favors by lashing out at Comey on Twitter. I mean, the obstruction probe appears to center on his firing of Comey and it also seems like Rod Rosenstein was forced to justify that firing (i.e. the memo Rosenstein penned last year was probably written under duress). Now Trump is on the verge of firing Rosenstein as well. He’s giving these people an excuse to have a vendetta against him and completely contrary to his intent, when he tweets shit like that, he just provides further evidence to support the contention of his critics that he is indeed an unhinged moron.

But you know what they say, right? Something about how it’s “better to be pissed off than pissed on.”
