Rosenstein thought Democrats would support Comey’s firing. He calculated wrong. Spectacularly.
Hi Lodi - Yours is another good angle to consider. Their hatred of course was grounded in what he said in getting HRC off the hook for her criminal acts. Don’t bet for a minute that he wrote his own speech - obozo and company told him what to say. Comey parsed his words; he had no choice. Their sycophants on the outside were angry - they wanted total exoneration of their criminal candidate. In the end, the angry demonkraps still found Comey useful to push Muleface to consider indicting POTUS on obstruction of justice - because POTUS fired Comey!
