4. I always thought that Jim Comey was a decent and honorable man...

I still do.

Unfortunately, he was not strong enough to handle the ambush by Trump and the Republicans. He was unprepared for the attacks against him. He never anticipated the degree of opposition against he and the FBI. He was too accommodating and weak to handle the partisan demands that were made upon him by the Republicans on the Committees.

He did not feel he could tell the people about Russian collusion but he could tell them about Hillary's emails on Anthony Weiner's computer? That was the compromise that he made with them. It was a tragic miscalculation on the part of James Comey. In hindsight, it's hard to imagine who would have challenged and survived the Trump assassination team.

Just my opinion.
