Brit, you got it wrong! You have to actually listen to the whole interview, not rely on CNN snippets from an NBC interview. Comey was fired because he ain't right, he's incompetent, he's a leaker, he's a political hack, and he's a crook. The only relevance the Russia investigation has to the Comey firing, at least as far as Trump is concerned, is if there should be an investigation, which is now highly in question with all that's come out, but not known then, is that Trump wants it handled by a competent FBI with a competent Director and after that infamous Wednesday hearing in Congress, anyone who watched that testimony knew ... Comey had to go. He's a fruit-loop living in fruit-cake. He ain't right. He's crazy. Grassley's response to that Comey interview right in the hearing room was "EEGADS"! Yeah, "EEGADS", when you realize you have a nut-job in charge of the FBI. And who better than Mueller who's very close to Comey would know that about Comey? Mueller knows, yet he plods on with his phony investigation of "obstruction of justice" for no reason with an investigation he's investigating that had no probable cause or crime to investigate to being with.

Witch Hunt!! People still say Mueller has integrity. No, he doesn't. If he had any integrity, he would have asked for the originating documents day one and on day two resigned saying 1) there is no crime and 2) no probable cause to look for one. Done. If Rosenstein had any integrity, he would have already done that and known there was no basis for a Special Counsel. It's crook on crook on crook. A 3-way crookfest between Comey, Mueller and Rosenstein.

DISGUSTING!!
