President Trump’s speech in Florida last night was followed by a tweet from James Comey. The ex-FBI director who was fired by Trump has a penchant for using famous quotes to subtweet Trump and others. Here was Comey’s quote offering after Trump’s Florida rally:
“Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones.” – Edmund Burke (1730-1797)

Take that, Trump! Or maybe not:

President @realDonaldTrump is living rent free in someone's head.
Jim also misattributed Colton's quote to Burke https://t.co/zDAUgZTjV4— Sandy 〽️ (@RightGlockMom) December 9, 2017
Maybe that misattribution was Comey’s subtle way of applying for a job at CNN. Ya think?
Comey being extremely careless with his quotations https://t.co/EpkGSlQI94

I said "grossly negligent"…but someone edited my tweet!

Wonder why "Failure of good men to do nothing" author is on Comey's mind? ?
