Robert Mueller, Rod Rosenstein and James Comey had all been a life-long Republicans up until Comey’s firing (Comey is now an independent; no info on whether or not Mueller and Rosenstein are still Republicans).
Republicans Mueller and Comey were first appointed by Bush; Republican Rosenstein was appointed by Trump.
If James Comey or Rod Rosenstein had some kind of plot to discredit Trump and keep him out of the White House, all they would have had to do is make a public announcement that the Trump campaign was under an active FBI investigation. THEY DIDN’T
Instead, they kept silent on that very serious national security issue and announced that they had re-opened an investigation into Hillary’s emails, which they would close down (again) just a few days later with no charges, no indictments and no convictions.
But by that time the damage had already been done, and I’m sure Comey came to quickly regret his complicity.
In the summer and fall of 2016, there were investigations of BOTH the Hillary (emails) and Trump (mutually-beneficial interactions with a hostile foreign adversary to influence a presidential election). Only ONE of the two was announced publicly before the election.
THEY ONLY ANNOUNCED THE HILLARY INVESTIGATION; NOT TRUMP.
ALL HARM WAS TO HILLARY, NOT TRUMP.
So the idea that they tried to hurt Trump is nonsense. Faux “News” LIES.
