I don't quite understand why Trump hates Comey so much. He probably wouldn't have been elected without Comey's help. Has he said 'thank you' even once?

Maybe Comey shouldn't have been such a little bitch?

He was one of the few people who could have stopped this. Hopefully this teaches others that appeasement isn't a valid strategy

He bent the knee, now he sucks the d.

Messed up that they’re weaponizing the DOJ, but also, fuck Comey. He’s the reason we had Trump 1.0.

I actually blame Hillary and DWS for denying Bernie's run at the DNC. He would have beaten Trump. Trump didn't win in 2016, Hillary lost.

Can we blame the slave era electoral college, considering Hillary did win the popular vote by 3 million?

That said, I agree. DNC did major damage, to the point it seemed intentional. Howard Dean was DNC chair during the successful organic primaries that gave us Obama over Hillary in the 2008 cycle.

For whatever reason Dems abandoned that setup and went back to the failed strategy of 2004 primaries to presumably shoehorn Hillary in.

Yep. We can both hate him and hate that this is happening to him.

I have a hard time caring about this guy. He is probably guilty of what Trump is accusing him of along with other things.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

Because Trump is sometimes honest and all.
