The indictment of former FBI Director James Comey on Thursday marked the culmination of President Trump’s yearslong desire to see one of his political foes punished after the bureau’s investigation into his 2016 presidential campaign and Russian meddling in that election.
But the president’s long-held ire toward Comey, coupled with his latest comments cheering the federal charges brought against the former FBI chief, could aid defense lawyers in a potential bid to have the case against Comey tossed.
“In this case, the facts before the indictment and even comments Trump made after the indictment provide strong factual evidence that Mr. Comey is the victim of either selective or vindictive prosecution,” Gene Rossi, a former federal prosecutor who worked at the Justice Department for nearly 30 years, told CBS News.
Reminder that Comey is in part responsible for Clinton losing to Trump:
“On October 28, 2016, eleven days before the election, Comey notified Congress that the FBI had started looking into newly discovered emails. On November 6, Comey notified Congress that the FBI had not changed its conclusion.[9] Comey’s timing was contentious, with critics saying that he had violated Department of Justice guidelines and precedent, and prejudiced the public against Clinton.”
He could have stopped the whole regime right there.

Good. Let them continue to be incompetent.
They like to think they’re sanctified. Let’s see how they like being jury-nullified.
