Fantasy Plan:
Instead of a stompy-feet resignation and making verbal statements that Clinton and her media will ride out in a week, Comey has FBI agents arrest Hillary and her minions with great fanfare, WITHOUT DoJ approval. DoJ and the media will have a firestorm, which will be on CNN, etc., 24/7. But everyone will have seen the handcuffs and perp walks. DoJ will have to explain why they aren’t indicting despite the massive evidence that will then be dragged into the public consciousness. Comey will be ordered to resign, but he can refuse and set up a public battle over the FBI’s authority to enforce the law in the face of obvious DoJ politicization.
Reality:
DoJ will drag their feet, playing Comey like a hooked bass on the false hope they will indict ... next week. They will finally do one of two things:
1) Broker plea agreements with no trials, etc, with some of Hillary’s flunkies admitting to mishandling information despite Hillary’s heroic efforts to follow the law. Bryan Pagliano and has an immunity deal, so he will be the main fall guy; with perhaps Heather Samuelson introduced to the underside of the bus also. Clinton Foundation will pay their fines and give them cushy jobs for life. Or,
2) If the evidence is so overwhelming they know Comey will go public, Lynch will make a deal with him for the DoJ to recuse itself and request a Special Prosecutor. This will require Congress to pass a SP bill, the President sign it, a Clinton devotee to be selected as SP (Jamie Gorelick?), the SP to review all the evidence and basically re-investigate the case. Oops — this will take about 2 years.
3) Putin actually start releasing the 20,000 Clinton reportedly in his possession in an effort to get Trump elected. He does so around Oct 1st.
OR Comey will make a move toward doing the right thing but will meet with an unfortunate end.
