Did Trump just threaten Comey?

But even putting that aside, Trump went on to say, after noting that “it’s not too late” to oust Comey from his post, “We’ll see what happens. You know, it’s going to be interesting.”

FBI directors are appointed to serve fixed 10 year terms so what exactly could he do if anything?

 

EDIT: Looked into it some and apparently he can "with good reason" but most generally ask them to resign. Comey wouldn't. Not sure what constitutes "good reason" though.

Firing the guy that's investigating your campaign though would nearly be the ultimate admission of guilt. Trump is very nervous.
