President Trump fired James Comey from his position as FBI Director in May 2017. The Commander-in-Chief cited Comey’s management of the Clinton email scandal as the reason for his termination. However, since Comey’s removal, he has become a staunch critic of the President.
The Commander-in-Chief has fired back at Comey via Twitter. In addition to citing the latter as a “leaker” and “liar,” President Trump stated that it was his “great honor” to fire the former FBI Director.
