In reply to the discussion: Whoa. [View all]Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)14. Trump also dinged LMTs stock to the tune of several billion in value, with one tweet
A week or two ago.
I think it's quite believable that Comey is allied with a cadre of far right FBI people who hate HRC. Maybe he's still mad about her and Obama not being more aggressive with Apple over encryption. Comey also has a history with Ken Starr and endless Clinton investigations in the 90s.
But mega corps are always in bed with each other. I doubt Comey's actions have much to do with LMT or Exxon.

Except the sanctions are relatively new -- only since the Crimean annexation.

And then Trump gets to pick? Unless he's constrained the way Obama seemed to be.

Why did Obama appoint this guy? This kind of info must have available back then.
