January 1, Comey Rants, Slams Trump Using Pop Star’s Lyrics

Summary

• James Comey used Taylor Swift songs to attack President Trump in a strange online video.
• He mocked millions of Trump supporters and called Republicans a minority, despite recent election results.
• Comey’s sudden outburst comes as his past actions draw new scrutiny from released documents.

James Comey, who once led the FBI, popped up online sounding more like a teenage fan than an investigator. In a recent video, Comey quoted Taylor Swift’s lyrics while going after President Trump and his supporters.

Comey spent five minutes groaning about Trump’s efforts to end the Ukraine-Russia war. He didn’t explain why seeking peace was a problem.

“Donald Trump is still president and still humiliating America on a national stage, standing next to Vladimir Putin. It’s like a dream, a bad dream you can’t wake up from,” Comey whined.

He then accused millions of Americans in the Republican Party of being

“mean jerks.”

He claimed they’re just a minority. Comey threw labels instead of real arguments.

“There are far more decent, honest, kind people in America than there are mean jerks. And don’t get me wrong, we have our jerks — millions of them. You may have noticed in particular, there’s a stunning coarseness and ugliness in the Republican Party today. It’s upsetting, but it’s also a minority of America.”

Despite claiming to be above name-calling, Comey landed on exactly that—just more insults against everyday Americans.

“I don’t want us to become like Trump and his followers.”

He tried turning the conversation to Taylor Swift, claiming her music lifts him up when he feels down about politics. Comey described attending her concerts and joining family fan chats, coming across more like a superfan than a leader.

“I’m in a family’s Swiftie group chat. I know all her music, and I listen to it on my headphones when I cut the grass. So yes, I have a favorite of hers, although honestly, for me, it’s a tie between All Too Well — 10 minute version, and Exile featuring Bon Iver,” Comey said.

Some found it odd that a man his age picked break-up ballads as favorites. Comey’s odd use of Swift wasn’t the only eyebrow-raiser; his track record includes letting Hillary Clinton off the hook in 2016 and backing the Russia hoax that dogged Trump’s first term.

Lately, more secret FBI and CIA files have come out pointing fingers at Comey’s conduct. These leaks could land him in court, though he didn’t talk about that in his video. Instead, he rambled about being positive, warned against “mean” people, and quoted Swift lyrics like a self-help coach.

“… while our elderly, makeup covered president is posting about whether Taylor Swift is still hot and declaring that he can’t stand her, what is she doing? Living her best life, producing great music, and as she urged all of us to do during the podcast, not giving the jerks power over her mind.”

Comey may soon face consequences for stirring division and chaos. It’s telling he used a pop star’s name for attention, rather than owning up to his actions. Folks should ignore Comey unless he brings proof to back up his claims.

“We can’t stop people from being jerks. What we can do is stop it from hurting us, from changing us.”

If you think Main Street is tired of elites slinging mud, you’re right. That’s why these antics aren’t fooling anyone where real folks live.
