hect.....he probably said “do you want to wake up tomorrow with a horse’s head in your bed”?
“James Comey refused to be a human sacrifice and the focus of Clinton revenge and sabotage for the rest of his life.”
Then james comey is a coward and is NOT a patriot.
They definitely talked about Hillary's situation. Bill Clinton dropped a few indirect threat along with the carrot (incentive) that Lynch would remain Attorney General under Hillary. Bill did not just drop in to see an old friend. It's not as though Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch are friends even though Clinton appointed her a Federal judge. Bill Clinton is acquainted with thousands of Democrat hacks and Lynch is just one of them.
The only question: Did Bill Clinton ambush and surprise Lynch to force a meeting? I don't think so. They both knew ahead of time even if it was just an hour or two.
Plus how can Obama pardon Hillary if there is no indictment from Lynch.
After Bill Clinton and Lynch met up this was the final straw for James Comey. He knew the fix would be in for an Obama pardon or a non-indictment even if the FBI recommended one. That Comey would be left holding the bag and would an eternal enemy of the Clintons who could make his life a living hell
So just a few days after the Clinton-Lynch pow-wow James Comey caved and made his announcement about Hillary
“Plus how can Obama pardon Hillary if there is no indictment from Lynch.”
He could, there is precedent. Ford pardoned Nixon after he resigned from office.
As for the rest I think Comey has stepped aside as the Bighorn rams butt heads.
Obama has no love for the Clintons. He won’t pardon her now that he has cover from Comey and will let Trump drive the stake in Clintons heart leaving his hands clean.
There is no downside for Obama not pardoning Hillary, after all she’s innocent......just ask her! ask lynch, ask Comey! .....and he gets cold revenge delivered by other people’s hands.
Every decent person is enraged over the handling of the Clinton case. Only a Democrat would be pleased.
Democrats are trash...so are many Republicans.
On that, we all agree.
Those discussion points sound about right. As for the question you posed, I can't imagine that it wasn't planned by both parties. The theory that I've posed is that when Lynch was approached by the Clintons, she recognized that she could take advantage of this as it allowed her to recuse herself without her have initiated anything to make that recusal a reality. Thus her conditions for meeting were that a) it had to be initiated by Bill, b) it had to appear like she was taken by surprise and thus the fallout would all be on the Clintons heads, not hers.... she would remain above the fray and kept high and dry. c) she would be kept on as AG.
Agreed, but even Democrats are enraged (though most claim they’re still voting for her in spite of their anger.)
"I have never been more ashamed of my country than today."
I was pretty ashamed when Jim Comey stated the laws for the powerful were different than the laws for the powerless. It was the end of everything that made me proud to be an American.
