President Trump’s firing of former FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday has sent the liberal media into full-blown hysteria.

On Tuesday night alone, MSNBC, CNN, and Fox News compared Trump firing Comey to Nixon’s Watergate scandal a whopping 107 times.

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Show led the charge, with 44 Trump/Nixon comparisons in just one airing of the show. CNN analyst Jeffrey Toobin offered his view that the Comey firing represents “a dark day in American history,” and called the reasoning Trump gave for the firing “completely bogus and pretextual.”
