CNN’s Toobin: Comey Firing ‘a Constitutional Crisis of the First Order and Abuse of Power’

‘This is a constitutional and political crisis of the first order’

EXCERPT:

TOOBIN: "Well, I -- I'm not suggesting that there is at this moment proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Donald Trump committed a crime. I am saying that as a political matter, this is a constitutional and political crisis of the first order and it's an abuse of power by the president. How do you deal with that? Will that be dealt within the courts, will it be dealt within the political system, I don’t know but that -- that's my point; Not that here is a specific criminal offense that's taking place here."
