““ You still didn’t answer the question! –I love the conspiracy theories! If you think Comey was on to something with regards to Russia, why would firing him solve anything?!?””
I’m sorry To make up for the lack of response I’ll offer several take your pick:
1) Trump didnt think that far ahead (does he ever). Comey was investigating so he got mad and fired him
2) He was planning to appoint his own crony who wont look into it (I’m fairly certain I said this earlier)
3) the replacement would have dropped it, but Comey forced his hand by releasing the memo thus having a special counsel appointed
4) I dont know. Trump does/says many things that are impossible for rational people to explain. this might be one of them
5) You said “The guy appointed to lead the FBI swears he doesn’t profess allegiance to Trump” maybe he is lying and did profess allegiance to Trump
6) You said “The guy appointed to lead the FBI swears he doesn’t profess allegiance to Trump” Maybe he lied to Trump and told Trump he would profess allegiance to him though he didnt mean it.
“so if there is any criminality – they can find it without Comey”
yes hopefully.

“You guys do realize that Alan Dershowitz (who is by no means a Trump supporter) clearly stated that there is no criminality here”
Alan Dershowitz is not some sort of final say. (though he certainly knows more than I do) Other lawyers disagree with him. If Mueller digs up something that the senate feels is “high crimes and misdemaneor” a term that I beleive is deided on by the senate, definitely not by Alan Dershowitz Trump can be impeached and his pardoning days are over
and even if not. Many americans want to know the truth. Even if there is nothing that can be done about it
