Judith Miller: Trump Created the Comey Firestorm ‘by Kneecapping’ His VP, Not the Media

‘Even the senior people, both of the FBI and his own White House did not know that the president was going to do this’

EXCERPT:

MILLER: "This is ridiculous. What planet is she living? It was the President who created this firestorm by kneecapping his vice president and undercutting the explanation that the vice president and other senior staff people had given as to why James Comey was being fired. So the idea that the press would turn this into a story is not a cut of — a fixture of our imagination or the fact that we didn't see it coming. Even the senior people, both at the FBI and his own White House did not know that the President was going to do this. Look, the best defense is a good offense. She is taking a page out of the Trump book which is going on the defensive attack. She did the best she could with it, but please."
