There must be so many layers of influence, privilege - and blackmail even.
But there is something disconcerting happening in the past month, in regards to the Trump administration. I was astonished by Trump's passive view that Hillary Clinton had been given a pass by the FBI ... but anyway ...
President Trump argued in a television interview that aired Wednesday that former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton would be "going to trial" if FBI director Jim Comey hadn't been "very, very good" to her.
...Trump was asked if it was a mistake not to ask Comey to step down and if it's too late to do so now. "No it's not too late," Trump said. "But you know, I have confidence in him. We'll see what happens. It's going to be interesting."
..."Don't forget when Jim Comey came out, he saved Hillary Clinton," Trump said. "People don't realize that. He saved her life. Because I call it 'Comey 1.' And I joke about it a little bit. ..."
Is the joke on us?

Trump is keeping too many from the previous administration.
