No matter how hard the media and Democrats try and feign outrage over Trump ‘sudden’ firing of corrupt James Comey, more American voters than not support the firing, including independent voters. This according to a liberal biased Politico poll that has it’s usual oversampling of Democrats. Republicans and independent voters support more than disagree with the firing of Comey according to this poll while hypocrite Democrats mostly don’t support it.
It’s a bit ironic isn’t it? The Democrats including Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and so forth have all been calling for Comey to be fired since November 2016. Now all of a sudden they are in love with the guy since Trump fired him. Same with the media, providing yet again Democrats and their sycophants in the media are always for something before they are against something.

Voters are split on President Donald Trump’s firing of former FBI Director James Comey, a controversy that has roiled Washington but is yet to dent the nation’s partisan divide, a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll shows.
Just over a third of voters, 35 percent, say Trump was right to remove Comey as FBI director this week, the poll shows. But roughly the same share, 33 percent, say Trump should have allowed Comey to continue as FBI director. Another 32 percent said they didn’t know or had no opinion.
Republican voters mostly back Trump’s decision: 62 percent say he was right to fire Comey, while only 10 percent think Comey should have stayed on.
Democrats, by contrast, largely oppose Trump’s decision. The majority, 58 percent, say Trump should have let Comey stay on, but 16 percent think Trump was right to remove Comey. The Justice Department has cited Comey’s treatment of 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton as part of the rationale behind Comey’s dismissal.
Independents are evenly divided: 30 percent think Trump made the right decision, 28 percent say Comey should have stayed and 42 percent are undecided.
Time for another Anderson Cooper eyeroll.
