The world is reeling this morning over news that President Trump has fired FBI Director James Comey, ostensibly over his handling of the Hillary Clinton emails.
“We’ve seen a lot of unusual stuff but this is outrageous,” Kimmel added, also finding Trump’s reasoning “hilarious” as it means “Trump fired James Comey for making him president”.
“He fired the director of the FBI, while the director was investigating [Trump’s] people and possible collusion with Russia,” Kimmel said at the top of Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night, incredulous over the situation.
Comey reportedly laughed when he was told he had been fired, assuming it was a prank.
