Is Comey an actor in our movie? Before you laugh, think about this. When he was tasked with the Clinton email investigation, he was also told by the DOJ that it was going nowhere. So he gives a press conference listing the things Hillary did wrong and then reveals she's off the hook. Now……why bring attention to a matter you have already been instructed to bury?
Some may argue he was trying to appear even-handed; some might argue he was throwing LL under the bus.
Once I got past the shock of the press conference, as well as my anger, I then asked "why". The answer that came to me was maybe he is trying to wave a red flag to let the public know there is a serious problem. So serious that even as the Director of the FBI, he was powerless to address it.
Then when fired, he leaks memos to prompt a Special Counsel being appointed. Was that also to draw attention to the sedition?
Finally, what sticks in my mind is that Trey Gowdy, whom I have much respect for, had said that history may be kind to Comey. Hmmm.
