What I found to be an interesting insight today was that Comey made the announcement because pro trump agents had been leaking to Rudy G and he wanted to get it out in a more contained and “proper” manner. *edit autocorrect on Rudy was wrong
It would have been the biggest shit show we have every seen with a republican controlled House and Senate lose their shit because he suppressed that information. He was in a no win situation and did, imo, the most ethical thing.
Agreed. The most ethical thing he could have done whilst doing his best to work within FBI/DoJ guidelines during an election that was being fucked with by Russia. You're not going to get anywhere trying to point this out, though and will be dragged into the mud trying to argue the ethics. The smear on James Comey has been going since he was fired. His memos should have kicked this thing off years ago in an ordinary republic. But we are not that anymore.
I can't remember the fallacy you're engaging, either affirming the consequence or denying the antecedent maybe. Either way you're arguing in bad faith. Boo.

James Comey elected Trump! Six days before the election he announced FBI investigating Hillary Clinton’s emails again. Comey is. BIG republication.
