Why there was never discussion of a special prosecutor is beyond me. Lots of reasons but the main ones are the impotence and complicity of the republican party.

This being the administration’s former cabinet officer and current presidential candidate, can’t think of a more obvious situation for an independent prosecutor.

Why there was never discussion of a special prosecutor is beyond me.

The Watergate-era special prosecutor law was allowed to expire about 15 years ago. Thus the only mechanism to get a special prosecutor is for Loretta Lynch to appoint one. Don't hold your breath.

this is the slipper slope that comey is walking on, imo
