He will be in prison much longer, though. Weiner will have the book thrown at him. 15 minimum, 30 max. 👺

I hope this gets a lot of play. If the MSM won't do it, Hillary and/or surrogates need to talk about it so people know.

girl I'd call him far worse than that.
And sexting while his young son was present?
He's sick and needs jail time.

While what Weiner did was wrong and should face the consequences, what Comey did is a threat to the integrity of our democratic system itself, and thus is a much more serious offense in the large scheme of things.

Trump is filthy fascist and criminalistic to this core, basically the boss of a crime syndicate, who also has been accused of sex crimes, and also represents an existential threat to democracy.

Don't take the media's bait in trying to make Weiner out to be Public Enemy Number One and draw false equivalencies, when he is merely someone who has some sort of sex addiction, and who never (as far as we know) actually touched anyone (unlike Trump).

News reports say he is cooperating with the FBI, so, basically, he may be wanting to bring down Huma, and by extension, Hillary, as some sort of sick revenge on Huma for dumping him.

Hell, Trump actually thanked Weiner publicly at a rally this morning (in a joking way)...this whole election has gotten more and more surreal...
