2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumCome what may, on November 9th, I *DEMAND* *MY* President FIRE that asshole.
This is a naked attempt to influence an election, without merit or proof.
The POTUS works for *US*....*WE* don't work for him. He made a mistake to put this asshole there, and now the asshole needs to be fired.
That simple.

(7,299 posts)the Fort Hood shooter and the Orlando shooter. They walked away from all three of those investigations and Americans lay dead in the streets as a result. THAT failure was not investigated. Why would you think that the Comey and the FBI would be investigated over this situation when Americans lying dead in our streets didn't seem to do it ? Now, Comey has politically neutralized his superiors at the Justice Department. This just seems to be a little to convenient to me.

The shadow knows.
But you and I don't really know his motivation in my opinion.
He's not stupid so he knew Hillary is very likely going to win with or without his letter to congress. And he knew that this was going to leak whether he notified congress or not, so he knew his letter would actually have no real impact on who the next President will be. This story was coming out with or without him.
Personally I think he was worried about a Republican congress voting a lower budget for FBI because of his no prosecution ruling 2 months ago. He didn't want them passed off by his failure to reveal that the FBI has found more evidence that theoretically could snag Hillary.
He is just protecting FBI funding knowing this will have zero effect on HRC election.
