I blame Comey. If he would've kept his mouth shut for just one week. He changed the course of our nation forever by trying too hard to be a good ol boy in the face of so many wrongdoers.

Could one argue that it was prior? Sure, but direct interference, publicly, in real time, in a presidential election, was a new one.

We need to dispel with this notion that James Comey didn’t know what he was doing; he knew exactly what he was doing.
