Ex-FBI chief James Comey deleted a social media post Thursday that earned him immense backlash online from people who perceived it as a ‘hit’ on President Trump.
Former head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation James Comey is getting lambasted online after he shared a social post that many people are taking as a “hit” on President Donald Trump’s life.
The post included the numbers “8647” etched in the sand at a beach using seashells. “Cool shell formation on my beach walk…” Comey captioned the Thursday post.
While to some people the numbers may appear innocuous, “86” is frequently used as a call sign for murdering someone, while “47” is for the 47th President of the United States.
