Should Democrats publicly applaud the FBI for the job they did with capturing the MAGAbomber?

In my opinion, they should do all they can do to applaud the FBI in this instance because most of the "cult" now hate the FBI, thanks to Donald Trump. They should try to rehabilitate the image that Trump has created.

There was a time when the Republicans defended and applauded the FBI. But that was before they became the "deep state", out to take down Donald Trump and his criminal empire.

Next to "fake news media", no institution has received harsher attacks from Donald Trump than the FBI. And it's mostly for the same reason.

The FBI image is under attack by right wingers. We need to remind the world that the FBI is a professional, competent organization.

The problem was never the FBI's abilities, it was their overlords.

One could just imagine him saying to himself "Take that Trumpy - in your face".

And Sessions was close to being speechless before he had to utter the words "it was partisan".

All I can say now is "Bring on Mueller".
