It is a multifaceted investigations by House , Senate and the FBI. Will your lord trump agrees to Special Prosecutor ?. Hell no. If he did he won't last two years before he resigned or impeached.

Appointing a special prosecutor is up to Rod Rosenstein not Trump. The same guy democrats hailed.

Same guy recommended that Comey should go. You should read his recommendation

The timing was just so wrong. The president could have waited until the conclusion of the Russia investigation before moving against Comey. It all looks like a cover-up attempt.

God bless you my man. You nailed it. It's a cover up and that's what doomed Nixon . It's not the Watergate but the coverup and that's exactly what we are witnessing now.

I said Comey wasn't leading the investigation Rod Rosenstein (Obama appointee) was. Appointing a prosecutor is up to him. He had bipartisan support when he was appointed and the same guy recommended that Comey should be fired.

You are one of a kind. Even noted republicans are coming out that it is looking bad for trump but missy is all foaming about Liberals. Even till the moment Nixon resigned, the likes of Pat Buchanan , G Gordon Liddy and co were cheering him up. The house of card is falling. What a mess in the White House. A dark spot on America.

This country desperately needs that special prosecutor. But how are we sure that Trump won't fire Rosenstein if he (Trump) gets wind of any attempt by the the Deputy AG to appoint a special prosecutor?

Rule of law is crucial. Rosenstein findings should be guided by the 1999 federal regulations and not liberal hysteria. If there is a smoking gun, firing Rosenstein wont make it go away.

Lets say he concluded the Russian investigation and 1, Finds Trump complicit, will that be a good time to fire him? 2. He finds Trump not complicit, will that be a good time to fire him?

I think Trump should've waited after the investigation to fire him.

This Comey issue is so funny. Rewind back to November, this guy was the hero to most conservatives and was derided by Liberals. Now conservatives are rejoicing he's gotten fired while Liberals are crying.
What makes it even funnier is Trump and some conservatives implying he was fired for the way he handled the Clinton email issue (which Trump praised him for last year). America sha...both sides are acting crazy at the moment.

This is a sad day in America for a sitting president to fire The FBI Director investigating his campaign dealings with the Russians. It's a cover up reminiscent of Watergate and unfortunately for trump, Russia gate is not going anywhere. American democracy is bigger than anyone and trump will eventually go down the way of Nixon. Even die hard Republicans are critizing him.

Go and tell the Republicans condemning trump about that. We need a special prosecutor to oversee the Russia gate because it is not going away. Your man will eventually fall like a pack of cards.

From San Francisco

Conservatives have been conducting a slow motion "coup d'etat" over the past 30 years. Gerrymandering. Voter suppression. Judicial manipulation. Propaganda programs to misinform and confuse large swaths of the voting public. The removal of Comey in the midst of of crucial investigation of the President and his enablers is one more step towards the inevitable: the perversion and ultimate destruction of democracy in the US leading to permanent conservative control of the country. This will not end well.

What are the chances that a new, Trump-approved FBI Director will carry on the investigation into the Trump team's ties to Russia? The investigation must have been getting too close to something. I despair that we may now never learn what it is. With Republicans now effectively able to quash the congressional investigations, we may never get to the truth. The behavior that so many of us had feared from Trump has just come to pass.

The report coming out of the White House is that the trump team is scared to death that some Republican Senators and Congressmen are calling for Special Prosecutor ala Watergate. It's not going to end well for the worthless trump because America is greater than one man. I am smelling the beginning of the end . Our National nightmare will be over sooner or later.

The partisan nature of politics has been dialed up to 100, even in matters everyone ought to agree on people take an opposing stand to their own detriment.

Not sure I should laugh at Comey's firing cos he seems like a conflicted person. On one hand he seems eager to do his job, on the other he feels like a stooge for interests.

Comey had cleared the Trump administration's connection to Russia several times already... got that? Don't let those liberal twats deceive you.

His getting fired was inevitable. If this was done by Hillary (if she had won) it would have hailed as a smart move.

What nonsense are you spouting here. Trump is under heavy criticism not only from democrats but Republicans calling for Special Prosecutor. He won't last a year in office if SP is appointed. I said from day 1 that Russia gate is equivalent of Watergate and many heads will roll and trump will be the final casualty. Remember we don't bribe our judges, investigators and politicians like some country. Covering up Russia gate will be fatal for the worthless one who is turning America to the laughing stock in the comity of nations.

Google Watergate and see so many similarities. I guess you being in Nigeria know better than Senators Richard Burr, Lindsey Graham, John McCain and other republicans calling it coverup. I bet you if trump order the Pentagon to bomb your village and all your kinsmen are killed, you will find a reason to support him. Trump is a dark spot on America like Dick Nixon was and we know how it ended for Nixon .

Obviously, your worthless rant doesn't count in America. Thank God most Nigerians aren't brain dead like you. Critiquing your leadership is the highest form of patriotism and that's why people like me will not hush our mouth.
