Well, here’s just a what if....
What if Comey didn’t know about the MCAULIFFE-FBI-HILLARY ‘PAYOFF’ to Andrew McCabe??? What if.. just what if Comey took McCabe at his word back earlier this year when he declined to indict Hillary Clinton??? What, what if.... he found out like the rest of us about that 600k+ money bribe like the rest of us via Wikileaks just a few days ago???
This is admittedly 1000% conjecture... but just what if? What if you took your number 2 and the guy you put in charge of the investigation at his word and carried his recommendation to not indict forward, only to find out he was bought off a few days ago???
Not saying this is what is going on.. but something to chew on.
What if Comey didn’t care about the rule of law when he did what he did?
Comey has his fall guy now. Can blame the botched investigation on McCabe.
I like the way you think, because I agree with you. Here’s my way of explaining it:
Imagine you are James Comey.
Imagine that you took your Deputy Director’s word that Hillary Clinton’s emails were not a problem.
Imagine that you announced his findings on national television as if they were your very own.
Imagine that you have been called “dirty” for three months after the announcement.
Imagine your surprise when you see the diagram showing three degrees of separation between the *person* Hillary Clinton and a $467K payoff to your Deputy Director.
Imagine how you might feel a little betrayed and sold out.
Imagine talking to on-the-ground agents who have other pertinent information about Hillary’s malfeasance with emails and security.
Might you consider re-opening the investigation of Hillary’s emails in order to rehabilitate your tattered reputation?
Imagine — It’s easy if you try.
