Trump calls Comey cowardly ?
What of Comey? I think it would take a degree of courage to publicly stand up to a President who is an extreme bully and known for retaliation. I don’t think Comey is a coward.
What of Trump? We have had this jackass thrust into our lives for two years now. Is there anything in Trump’s history resembling courage? 5 draft deferments? Sexually assaulting women? There is nothing in Trump’s life resembling courage. Trump is the quintessential coward. He attacks those who lack his power and money. He attacks minorities. He is a bully and like all bullies he is a coward. Trump is the Billy Zane character from the Titanic. He would lie to get off a sinking ship. He would step on or over anyone to save himself. That is precisely what he is doing here.
