Jeff Daniels isn’t a corrupt, self-righteous, self-indulgent former FBI director … but he plays one on TV!
James Comey, to be specific, in the Showtime original movie “The Comey Rule.” He discussed his hero today on “Morning Joe”:
Actor Jeff Daniels: Comey’s “a guy that believes in the rule of law [&] protecting the integrity of the FBI. Those things matter to him like people’s religion matters to them. And their God matters to them. There’s a sacredness to it. … And none of those things are political.” pic.twitter.com/chCgf5CnyS

Here’s the trailer for “The Comey Rule,” in case you missed it:

So obviously when it comes to the Trump administration, Jeff Daniels is about as expert as it gets. And take it from someone who knows: Donald Trump is prison-bound and his supporters are too dumb to realize it.
Listen:
Daniels to Trump voters: “We’re starting to see a president who is doing everything he possibly can, including lying about the pandemic, to stay out of jail. That’s who you’re voting for — a president who is heading to prison.” pic.twitter.com/i9ER2kKZKr

Take Jeff’s word for it, folks. It’s worth almost as much as James Comey’s.
That settles it for me. I always follow whatever Jeff Daniels says
