Ana Kasparian on James Comey's 'Poor Taste' Social Media Post and Political Trolling

James Comey's Social Media Post

• 💡 James Comey posted a social media message spelling out '8647', interpreted by some as 'eliminate 47', leading to an interview with the Secret Service.
• 🎯 Ana Kasparian believes Comey was likely trolling and did not intend a death threat, but admits the post was in poor taste and stupid.

Call for Accountability

• ⚠️ Kasparian questions why figures from the 2016 election cycle, like Comey and Hillary Clinton, are still active in politics, stating, "we need adults in the room."
• 🚀 She argues that older figures trolling the president on Instagram is pathetic and hinders progress.

Tulsi Gabbard's Reaction

• ⚖️ Kasparian dismisses Tulsi Gabbard's call for Comey to be put behind bars as ridiculous, extreme, and unnecessary.
• 🎭 She suggests Gabbard's reaction is more of the same performative politics seen from various figures.

Broader Political Culture

• 🎪 Kasparian describes the behavior of politicians on both sides of the aisle as a total circus and embarrassing, acting like children.
• 🇺🇸 She emphasizes the need for serious public servants who are dedicated to the country and the American people, rather than self-interest.
• 📉 The current state of politics indicates things have been falling apart, not just starting to unravel with this one instance.
