But what does “8647” mean, and why has it elicited such a strong response?
According to interpretations circulating online, the number is a coded call for Trump’s assassination.
The term “86-ing” is commonly used to refer to getting rid of something or someone,
while “47” is said to represent Trump as the 47th President of the United States.
Comey, however, has denied any malicious intent behind the post,
claiming he stumbled across the shells on the beach and “assumed they were a political message.”
