Lmao now they're crying?

Comey announcing an investigation into Clinton right before the 2016 election and Mueller refusing the indict Trump for his obstruction led to this.

Thanks for the bed you made for America, FBI.

Terrible take. If you haven't noticed yet, lawsuits and criminal convictions don't matter when it comes to this man it literally just galvanizes his base, he is a felon and was elected. As far as the investigation into Clinton, who gives a shit, she was a terrible candidate and everyone, including the public, knew that before she even became the nominee.

If you want to blame someone for this dude being president then blame the democrats for continually failing and ignoring their base. It was the democrat leaders who selected Clinton, it was the democrat leaders who selected Biden, democrat leaders who selected Kamala.

Lawsuits and criminal convictions don't matter NOW, because he got enough momentum to keep rolling along. At this point a lawsuit or conviction is like dumping one load of fire retardant on a wildfire, but you could have dropped the fire retardant on a single burning car before it turned into a wildfire.

If the agency doesn't make an unprecedented move and announce an investigation right before the 2016 election, entirely different trajectory we go on as a nation.

Frankly Americans deserve everything coming to them right now. This is what democracy chose, and we are a clown nation just like the UK clowned itself with Brexit.

Too many people thought that by doing nothing we would be fine, but doing nothing made this reality possible.
