Former FBI Director James Comey suggested over Twitter on Tuesday that anyone who votes Republican in the upcoming midterm elections is un-American.
“Ambition must … counteract ambition,” wrote Comey, adding “All who believe in this country’s values must vote for Democrats this fall. Policy differences don’t matter right now. History has its eyes on us.”
This Republican Congress has proven incapable of fulfilling the Founders’ design that “Ambition must … counteract ambition.” All who believe in this country’s values must vote for Democrats this fall. Policy differences don’t matter right now. History has its eyes on us.

In other words, any Republican who doesn’t vote Democrat in November doesn’t believe in American values.
Comey’s comments come on the heels of what some interpreted as a call for a coup against President Trump after the Helsinki summit with Vladimir Putin, when he tweeted”This was the day an American president stood on foreign soil next to a murderous lying thug and refused to back his own country,” adding “Patriots need to stand up and reject the behavior of this president.”
This was the day an American president stood on foreign soil next to a murderous lying thug and refused to back his own country. Patriots need to stand up and reject the behavior of this president.

Some aren’t having Comey’s pontificating…
Former Hillary Clinton campaign staffer Zac Petkanas – who is leading the DNC’s “war room” against President Trump, said “Dear @Comey — We don’t want you. Sincerely, The Democratic Party,” adding “He thinks it’s helpful for a witness in an obstruction of justice case against Donald Trump is out there campaigning for Democrats. STFU”
Dear @Comey —
We don’t want you.
Sincerely,
The Democratic Party— Zac Petkanas (@Zac_Petkanas) July 18, 2018
How shitty of a political operator is @Comey?
He thought Hillary was going to win so it didn’t matter if his public decisions helped Trump.
He thinks it’s helpful for a witness in an obstruction of justice case against Donald Trump is out there campaigning for Democrats.
STFU

Worth noting that James Comey is currently under investigation for lying and leaking classified information. Under the legal standards of The Resistance, he clearly just obstructed justice by electioneering on behalf of officials who might shut those investigations down.

So if we vote Republican, we don’t care about this country’s values?
James Comey questions our patriotism unless we support The Party.
This hack was in charge of the FBI for years. Now THAT is scary. https://t.co/GtraKQnWgQ

GOP defenders of Comey – who was a longtime Republican until 2016 – won’t like this tweet at all.
“Most Republicans don’t talk to me anymore … I’ve succeeded in pissing off everyone.” -Comey a couple weeks ago https://t.co/FV9ItVX8Qf
