James Comey made the one April Fools' Day joke no one in America needed
It's April Fools' Day, and the former FBI director who learned he'd been fired by Donald Trump when he heard about it on TV, just pulled the most extremely unnecessary, wildly unfunny prank. He announced a fake presidential run.
Comey shared a photo of himself standing in the middle of an empty road on social media, alongside the words"I'm in. We need someone in the middle. #2020." And reader, when I received the notification on my phone, I literally screamed.— James Comey April 1, 2019Comey did not — under any circumstance — have to hit the send button after composing this tweet. Yet, he made the conscious decision to do so knowing how truly and completely exhausted the American people are with politics.
Is this the dumbest most unwanted campaign announcement ever, or the dumbest most unwanted April Fool ever? https://t.co/YZxfJaOhCw this is actually the only good April Fool's day joke because it probably gave at least one person an actual heart attack https://t.co/5UgRiWCIb0Comey, dude. We're going to need to you be a little less extra. And while you're at it, stop posing for pictures in the middle of the damn street. It's dangerous.
