committed by tRump - impersonating a president. He is not good at that, either. He wants to keep the position, since he is feathering his bank accounts on a daily basis, ignoring the emoluments clause. How many careers will he ruin before the gop finally decides he is making their party look stupid for having this parody of a human representing their "party"? The SNL skits are getting more and more real on a weekly basis.

Since neither has ever been convicted of the alleged "crimes" to begin with. Trump on the other hand prefers to pardon actual criminals.

He's smearing both of them with vague "crimes" with no proof. That's behavior that will get any publisher or public figure enmeshed in a legal suit. He is in effect committing libel (his Tweets are in the print domain) and he's slandering Comey (and McCabe) because he can't stop making rabid specious verbal accusations (slander) with no substantiation to back them up.
