Not really. If it means "Kill Trump" then it also means "Kill Biden". The message is the message and does not change.Quote:

Y'all are saying the only interpretation of the Comey book of is that he is telling people to kill Trump. An alternative explanation is that he was referencing the well-known inflammatory language that Trump uses on the daily is incitement of violence and should be used to remove ("86") him from office. E.g., Grethen Witmer, Federal Judges Trump harshly criticized, Ruby Freeman and Moss whatever her name is, etc...
How about that for "context." (Comey is still a moron.)

People are either unaware of, or ignoring the context of Comey's Instagram post. It was not a "one-off". It was actually the second in a series of three posts, all of which were connected, self-referential, and clearly deliberately so.
Post 1: Comey at the beach, reading his new book, FDR Drive (image attached).
Post 2: 8647 in shells.
Post 3: The summary of his new book which he is reading in Post 1. That summary:
"Garcia believes Buchanan went far beyond the protection of the first amendment when *he singled out his enemies by name* and *suggested "something should be done" about them*. His fans have obliged, killing or grievously, injuring some of his foes."
Comey is telling you exactly what he is doing.
Reading his book.
Singling out his enemies by name (as close as he can get) - 47 for Trump.
Suggesting "something should be done about them" - 86 for kill or eliminate.
And "his fans have obliged" from his book description that he posted.
All of the elements are there to eliminate any ambiguity as to what common meant - sandwiching his 8647 in shells in between a picture of him reading his book, and a summary of his book - which has to do with calling out enemies by name, suggesting something should be done to them, and his fans obliging.

This 100% a pretext to lawfare. People should stop wasting time discussing the legality or morality of that act.
Comey is being made to suffer the same way he made others suffer.
If the justice dept can somehow squeeze his wife - based on aforementioned text messages, then we have a perfectly flipped michael flynn script. existential poetic justice.

I agree that lawfare has been used against Trump and other Rs.

New York tax or whatever that other was, etc.
So, shoe's on the other foot now, I get it. But it's all dumb and needs to stop. Waste of taxpayer money.

Holding these people accountable is how you make it stop.

Yes, seashells on social media are a well-established method of transmitting death threats. Everyone knows T-shirts are intended to be humor only.

And yet this was a deliberate act by Comey to put this message in front of millions of people to elicit a response. Completely unlike anything done to Trump.GeorgiAg said:

Some hilarious stuff in latest DOJ filing in Jim Comey seashell case. It appears Jim and his wife, Patrice (who had attended the Women's March in DC with their daughters after Trump was inaugurated in 2017) set up the entire stunt. She even Googled the slang definition for "86"… pic.twitter.com/d8ddPWhLjz

Prosecutors will argue at trial a book by James Comey shows he had a state of mind to "k*ll President Trump" thru "stochastic terrorism" (in Comey's own words) by posting an image "86 47" to his 200k Instagram followers. Comey's novel describes a podcaster who "through the wonder of the Internet" convinces his fans of "killing his foes."
"It's where a charismatic leader jacks people up, but through the wonder of the Internet, avoids a direct connection to what comes next," Comey wrote in "FDR Drive," which came out just five days after Comey posted his seashell threat in May 2025, less than a year after two attempts on Trump's life, inclg one in which he was shot in the ear.
"He knows an attack will follow his words but he closes his eyes so he can say he wasn't part of it," Comey wrote, providing more evidence of intent.
"People are susceptible to [social media] messages that offer a sense of purpose through violence," Comey also wrote, and because those messages are "in your pocket reaching you constantly through your buzzing phone it's an order of magnitude more effective and more dangerous."

Comey is far more culpable of inciting assassination attempts.

He truly believes he is above the law.
