Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey is playing dumb and innocent after essentially calling for President Trump to be assassinated last week, claiming he had no idea his post would be so controversial.
After Comey posted an image of shells on a beach he arranged to read ‘8647’, meaning get rid of Trump, The Secret Service questioned him, but then let him go without any charges.
Now, in an interview with MSNBC he claims he’s just a silly old fella who wears baggy jeans and sweaters and had no idea what he was doing.
“I don’t know how we ended up here. Never occurred to me that it was any kind of controversial thing, but that’s the time we live in,” Comey told MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace.
It’s got nothing to do with the time we live in, shit posting an image threatening to kill the President when you’re a deep state lackey is always going to cause outrage.
Comey then claimed that he wasn’t the one who arranged the shells, and they were put there by some other TDS addled leftist.
“We were walking on the beach, we went to the beach to prepare for this week… and we were walking back towards the road and we saw in the sand someone had arranged shells with numbers. And Patrice, my wife, said, ‘why would someone put an address in the sand?’ and I said, ‘I don’t know’ and we stood over and I said, ‘I think it’s some kind of political message.'”
Hurling his own wife under a bus, Comey then added, “She said you know, when I was a server – she did a lot of work in restaurants – 86 meant to remove an item from the menu when you ran out of ingredients. And I said, ‘well to me, as a kid it always meant to leave a place, to ditch a place.’ And she said well that’s very clever you should take a picture of that and I did and posted it on my Instagram and thought nothing more of it until I heard through her that people were saying that it was a call for some sort of assassination which is crazy!”
Pfffffft, SURE.
James Comey addresses his “8647” threat against Trump: “We were walking along the beach and we saw on the sand someone had arranged shells with numbers. I thought 86 meant to ditch a place.”

He added, “I thought, what a clever way to express a political view.”
“The shells were the same color for each of the letters, the different colors for the letters. It took a lot of work. Somebody with artistic flair did that. And I have a hard time believing it was anybody with a a dark intention,” Comey asserted, adding “And it certainly was no dark intention on my part or my spouse’s part.”
JUST IN: James Comey says he's just a silly old man who wears sweaters and jeans, and was so enamored with the random "clever" shells he "found" on the sand.

Comey also boasted about his tax refund, which earned him $347.

Aw shucks grandpa.
Did the Secret Service really buy this BS?
He thinks he's effing Mr. Rogers.

He probably hired a crisis management PR firm and there is no telling how many iterations went into that answer and how many times they rehearsed it.

And it’s still laughable.

Of course, Wallace didn’t bother asking him about this ‘coincidence’:

Blehhh….? S’cuse me but that is how I react to LIARS.
Yes America, this is actually the willingly delusional coward that thinks he is still an Eagle Scout that headed the FBI, and unfortunately nearly half of my delusional TV Boomers believe is “such a good boy”.
The Clinton/Soros/Biden/Comey ilk from the radical tumultuous 1960’s, living free with so many rights and hubris in America, were also post WWII bipolar Boomer minds under the tutelage of Marxist and Fascist professors in politically astute academia. They hijacked every movement of the day becoming useful idiot instigators to hate on America and anyone in uniform service to her, especially their own generational weary Nam combat veterans that their own moral purview believed should be slandered into oblivion, simultaneously championing their parents as “the greatest generation” as it relates to them, stealing the valor of the “good war”, as opposed to the bad war. The paradoxical coward to good to do the dirty deeds themselves, they delude themselves knowing others will follow their dog whistle. Absolutely delusional cowards.
Comey was a youthful shining Eagle Scout with short pants and lots of performance badges, pretentiously assuming the highest moral ground. The one who denigrates the dough boy with blood and mud on his face as his dishonorable comparative.
The good news is that that 8% of my Boomers are dying. The bad news is their offspring like Comey are still trying to expunge America with 1960’s university Marxist subjective dystopian delusion that have divided America to this day.
It was obviously a dog whistle to set deep state actors into motion.
