The obvious glossing over of the Comey excuse and the

Russian connection to our democratic election is extremely troubling. No. Urgently troubling! The so called
protectors of our nation and it's treasury should
have their damn troubling hair on fire.

Comey would not confirm Russian involvement in hacking the DNC because he was afraid of influencing the election. But he influenced it by sending that, well timed, well placed Republican talking point email evidence letter to right wing congressmen knowing it would be leaked.
Neither Comey nor Putin are dumb. But they're playing us for dumb. It has been verified by over a dozen security agencies that the Russians are involved in the DNC "only" hacking.
I'd bet my grandmother's new draws that Manafort
knows Comey and knows him well. Comey is a Republican, though it is reported he is now independent. Manafort worked for a Republican but left because his Russian connection was getting to hot to handle.
This is subversive and ideologically driven.
Could Comey himself not see the coincidentally circumstancial evidence of keeping the Russians safe from discovery? After the election it's too late. But Trump will help Russia bury us for free.
