Hell Hath no Fury Like a (Former) FBI Director Duped by Putin/Trump

Now we know. Comey did what he did last fall, because Trump/Putin created a phony bit of intelligence. And then, as the election neared, Someone whispered in Comey's ear "If Clinton wins, Trump will release this memo to Fox and tell them that you personally ignored this evidence under orders from Obama. And then Congress will be all over you like 1) a hobo on a ham sandwich 2) flies on shit 3) Trump on some other man's wife's vagina. It won't matter to the GOP base that the document is as fake as a three dollar bill. They'll still accuse you of playing partisan. They'll call it a "cover up." A new Watergate. But all you have to do to keep Congress off your back is show that you were more than willing to re-open the email investigation of Clinton a week before the elections. That will prove that you are not playing ball for the Dems. And we all know that Clinton is gonna win, so what difference will it make?"

If Comey is reading this, I hope he looks back to the days before the election. Someone almost certainly approached him with this message. And that person, while pretending to be concerned about Comey, was almost certainly working for Trump and Putin.

Comey has agreed to testify again. In public. Before Congress. He was (supposedly) fired by Trump for his handling of the Clinton e-mail scandal. Meaning that he was (supposedly) fired for falling for Trump/Putin's political dirty trick--the bogus Russian "intelligence" that the Washington Post writes about today.

If I were Comey, I would be mad. Raging mad. I would be gathering my notes, considering how I got into this mess and who put me there and how to even the score.

I am SO glad this is finally coming to Light.
I remember thinking at the time, this is WRONG, it isn't TRUE, Where is this coming from? & WHY NOW?
This explains SO much.
I stood with HRC, I stand with Comey. & I HOPE Comey nails some trump-rusky-republiker asses to the frickin WALL.
