"Trump created a mess with this firing even if he manages to articulate reasons for it beyond the tired excuse that it was over Comey’s abysmal handling of the Clinton case forever ago. Now, contrary to the lamentations of Hollywood morons, firing Comey is not an impeachable offense, so anybody who thinks that will happen is living in a fantasy world. President Trump was well within his rights to take action. But the political implications are another matter."
