Obama may be playing for time. He doesn’t know what the FBI has until one of his snitches throws him a line. He’s being non-committal until he knows the score — at which time either Hillary or Comey gets burned.
Obama may start to find out what everyone has read if the missing 33K emails get dropped by WikiLeaks this week.
I think you are right. I think the big problem Hillary has is that the computer was looked at by new York child crimes unit and the Clintons and Obama do not have an inside man cooperating with them. they have not a clue what was seen and not reported up the chain of command. I am guessing that if Obama does nothing to obstruct there is nothing problematic for him. Obama has never been her friend the only reason he has covered for her is that he is in some way compromised by Hillary and bills crimes.
Obama has stabbed Shillary in the back . He’s going to save his legacy at her expense . He has seen some of the material and it’s BIG . Obama probably had to tell Lynch to sign off on the warrant , though , as she is a bigger Hillary ally than she is an Obama ally . Now Lynch and Obama are in touch with some of the higher ups in the DNC and Congress telling them that they better head for their political bunkers because the fallout is going to be super damaging . Obama wants to shield political allies from the fallout because he KNOWS how bad it is .
...or both.
