I think you are right. I was thinking about this, this morning. Let’s say he made a deal to keep his job or his pension or whatever deal he made, that caused him to not recommend the indictment. With that in mind, it seems he did/said everything he possibly could to tarnish HRC, and make the path forward only slightly less complicated for her.

Actually, he could have said a lot more and in a more direct way. If anyone else had done the things she did, I can assure you his statements would have been much, much harsher and critical. And would have unquestionably resulted in a recommendation for indictment.
That is why Trump should only talk about this, should only spend ad money on this. In his speeches he should take at least 15 minutes every day to read Comey's charges against her. Hold up a paper and read Comeys words to the crowd.
How will the press change the subject to Sadam Hussein was mean to terrorists when all they ever hear from Trump is Comeys charges against her for putting our national security at risk. Saying, it is the first job of the executive to protect Americans, she has proven she cannot.
