of that hinders nor has anything to do with Trump or the investigation nor do people equate the two. What Trump is doing is his childish, pathetic & desperation of attacking Comey, he is afraid of everything right now.

That said; what Comey did was despicable & will be until he can justify what he did which he probably can't do. None of it is rehashing the election either, that is over.
