So Comey's a big Dem now after giving the election to Trump?

Sorry, but killing Hillary's campaign momentum a week before the election is something he will never be able to wash off his hands, no matter how many pro-Democratic tweets he makes. I wish he'd just go away.

Authoritarian RW and, like most law enforcement agencies, they have lots of military culture influence.

This whole "FBI is filled with liberals" is a blatant lie.

who smeared Hillary and helped to destroy her campaign that I'd like to see disappear from politics altogether. Some who love to create conflict within our party. I'll leave it at that.

Comey was just a mean-well clumbersone who stepped on his own #youknowwhat.

He saw the attacks on Hillary's integrity THROUGHTOUT 2016 and in his own clumsy way, he was trying to insure that she had legitimacy after she won. I think he, like any thinking person, is horrified by the outcome of that election.

He realizes he screwed up. He's helping to fix things, but he can't undo the past.

From hearing him talk, his wife and daughters are Dems in everything but name.

He didn't change his positions, he just doesn't like Trump. Which is good enough for me right now.

My guess is he stay Indy if repugs stay crazy. But I have no doubt that he is worried about the country right now.
