Trump commits political suicide?

If that was the case, all trump had to do was to refuse the funds, and that would have given the guy the message not to overstep the mark,.
One minute you are suggesting that law enforcement do not do the job properly, then you suggest that they could be denied the funds to do the job properly, and that would be OK. :rolleyes:

It's odd how you view things Wannabe. My point was that Trump didn't need to fire him, he could have just refused to fund the investigation, and that's got nothing to do with them not doing their job properly.
 
There is no mark to overstep in an investigation.
Did you mean he was getting too close to the truth

This is American politics we're talking about, not reality Noseall.

He may well have been getting too close to the truth (whatever that is) but there is more than one way of killing a cat. Firing him suggests he was, but whilst withdrawing funds would also have, Trump could have then said it was a waste of time and resources, and the FBI should be getting on with more important things. It's just politics, and the perception of.
 
Former justice dept officials & politicians from both parties called Mr. Comey's revelation about Hilary Clintons emails just 11 days prior
to the election

"An improper , astonishing and perplexing intrusion into politics"

Mr Comey a former member of the republican party ;) spent 15 years as a federal prosecuter before serving in George Dubya Bushes administration ;)

Afaik trump is only the 2nd president to dare sack an FBI director.

No president dared to sack Hoover ;) as he kept files on pretty much all the top politicians ,including info aquired by phone taps :)

I think the timing of the Clinton email thing helped dent Clintons chances along with supposed assistance from the Ruskies.
Otherwise why is a brash, orange, bad haired liar in power.

Because he won the election & people voted for him ,that is how a democracy works. As for being a liar,thats politics & politicians

In many cases if they told the entire truth people would not vote for them ;)

Joe Public does not want the truth or the entire truth, he wants to hear as to whats in it for him/them

Truth :LOL:

Russian conspiracy :LOL:
 
Do you believe that a case gets closed when funds are lean?

That's not what I said.
Cases have boundaries and limits RE what to investigate, and where to stop.
A practical reason would be finance, and time: a cynical reason would be to not go where those in charge don't want the investigator digging.

I don't believe that limiting the FBI resources would inhibit the investigation. It would have probably rendered lesser cases obsolete or 'shelved'.

Actually, American democracy isn't the same as ours. They have the ordinary voters, and then they have the electoral college, and it's these people that that elect the president, and there's a varying proportion of electoral voters per state. Now they should vote the same as the ordinary voters do, but 4 states voted for George W bush instead of Al gore, and all they got was a fine, so democracy in America isn't that democratic.
 
You could say the same sort of things about Britain.

More than two candidates, yet first past the post victor.
Prime Minister chosen by the largest group of those victors.
Head of State chosen by even dafter method.

So democracy in Britain isn't that democratic.

Even if it were, democracy isn't that great anyway, is it?

I don't know any different. What's the alternative? Are there better alternatives?

I suppose you could have a kind of democracy whereby you can deceitfully enhance your chances of winning voters. Now there's a thought.
