Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly said his country is willing to offer former FBI Director James Comey political asylum if he is prosecuted in the U.S. for leaking his memos on his private conversations with President Trump.
According to a translation by RT, a Russian-controlled television network, Putin said Comey's leaks put him "in a vulnerable position." He compared the former FBI director to NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, who currently has asylum in Russia.
Comey, like Snowden, acted as an "activist," Putin said.

I think he meant that as a double entendre and a joke at the same time.
He’s saying that they have some really incriminating Intel on Comey..........................

Putin is trolling Comey!! I love it!
We need an investigation into Comey’s connections with Putin. Putin would only offer this if Comey was already in bed with him.

Maybe this is Putin’s way of letting Comey and Mueller know that he’s got some damaging info on THEM, kinda like when President Trump warned Comey about the possibility of “tapes”.

I agree this is absolutely brilliant.
It causes those who are undecided or skeptical of Comey’s crimes to think he may really be in trouble.
It help’s Trump by further demonstrating the seriousness of Comey’s treason, all while looking as if Putin is helping.
The comparison to Snowden is the cherry on top. The once top FBI official put in the same basket as Snowden.
The important players in the world have respect for Trump.
I love it.
I love winning.
As a Buffalo Bills fan it really is great to win constantly!
I am not used to this level of winning.
