Former FBI Director James Comey warned this Sunday that the United States is facing “dangerous” days for the departure of the current president, Republican Donald Trump, who he likened to a “mob boss.”
“I’ve never seen an adult with a greater need for reassurance than Donald Trump. I’ve only seen it in two or three-year-olds,” Comey said in an interview with UK’s Sky News.
“Reassurance is like air (to him). He needs it constantly and that’s what he’s doing is making the next seven days so dangerous in America because he feels the reassurance slipping through his fingers and no doubt he feels betrayed by those around him, ”he added.
Before Democrat Jon Biden’s inauguration as US president next Wednesday, the former FBI director, fired by Trump in 2017, assured that the Republican is “ a populist demagogue who can say anything to try. to win the support of the people. “
There is an aspect that people don’t normally see. There is something threatening about him that feels private but not in public. I noticed when I was sitting next to him. He constantly reminded me of a mob boss because I met him Lots of mafia bosses and I helped put them in jail, ”Comey said.
Asked about the possibility of further riots in the coming days or weeks, he said he was “concerned” in this regard.
“There are armed and deranged people who think their land is being taken from them, and that is a threat that the US authorities must take very seriously,” he stressed.
