Comey made a PROMISE to his DEEP STATE MASTERS
( who include the Clintons) that he would stop Trump and he would stop THE PLAN.
He now knows ( as do his MASTERS) that he has failed .
The PRICE of THIS failure is more than just a BLACK EYE for him.
He is pleading for help from his MASTERS to save himself .
" JUDGE ME BY THE ENEMIES I HAVE MADE"
