He was the commander in chief. Who do you believe the FBI is acting on behalf of if not his handpicked successor to Comey?


The FBI certainly wasn't acting on behalf of Obama when they sat on the revelation of Hilary's emails found on Huma Abedin's laptop to manufacture an October surprise. The fact that folks like Giuliani knew about it before it was made public goes to show that the FBI isn't a unified organization all moving in the same direction.


Maybe Obama wanted revenge on Hillary’s use of dirty tricks against him during the 2008 primaries.

The FBI acts on behalf of the state, and the FBI. Trump picked an FBI guy to run the FBI. I don't know why he did it, either.


Maybe the FBI director was under orders from the president to prevent opposition hacks from spreading misinformation about the date of the election, thereby costing him the election.

Wait, are you saying this was all to ensure Trump wins? Are you saying this is proof of a Watergate type situation?!?
