Just to set the stage, here’s a flashback to a few years ago when then-FBI Director James Comey recommended that prosecutors not bring charges against Hillary Clinton for using private computer servers and mishandling classified information. Comey was critical of Clinton but concluded “although there is evidence of potential violations regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case”:
Fast forward a few years and it appears that Comey’s definition of “reasonable prosecutor” has changed.
Comey tweeted this after the Trump indictment was announced:
Yeah, I remember that, and it’s still as laughable today as it was back then.
Comey’s gone from “no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case” for Hillary to cheering a frivolous charge that might not even be a misdemeanor that’s been forced into a felony to charge somebody he doesn’t like. That he was in charge of the FBI speaks volumes about how we got here.
James Comey’s take following Trump’s indictment speaks volumes (THIS guy headed the FBI!?)
