We also need to take this in context to what we (think we) know -
-
Strzok is on record in his texts with Page 'fine-tuning' many 302s for HRC, presumably under the direction of McCabe and Bill Preistap. This is not an isolated incident.
-
McCabe is on record saying 'first we get Flynn, then we get Trump'. This is bigger than a personal vendetta.
-
Obama, Comey, Rice, Yates all met in the days before the Flynn interview - there is a huge redacted section in the Rice CYA letter. They were discussing keeping some intelligence from Trump (and by extension Flynn).
-
Preistap has likely flipped, because the stakes here are huge.
This goes to Obama.
