Former FBI Director James Comey calls President Donald Trump ‘morally unfit to be president’

Former FBI Director James Comey called President Donald Trump “morally unfit to be president” in a new interview with ABC News’ “20/20” on Sunday night.

In an exclusive interview with ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos, Comey also said there is “certainly some evidence of obstruction of justice” when Trump asked him last year at the White House to if he could see his way to “letting Flynn go,” referring to a criminal probe of fired National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.

“If he didn’t know he was doing something improper, why did he kick out the attorney general and the vice president of the United States and the leaders of the intelligence community?” Comey asked, referring to Trump’s actions before he asked about Flynn’s case.

“I mean, why am I alone if he’s– doesn’t know the nature of the request?”

Comey’s own firing last May by Trump set in motion the appointment of special counsel Robert Mueller by the Justice Department.

Mueller is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, and possible collusion by Trump campaign officials in that meddling.

Trump has repeatedly and angrily denied any such collusion.

Comey’s interview with ABC News and his new book have enraged Trump in recent days.

On Sunday morning, the president unloaded a series of nasty tweets about Comey.

In those tweets, Trump called Comey “slippery,” a “slime ball” and predicted that he would be remembered “as the WORST FBI Director in history, by far!”
