Does anybody else think the FBI rank and file has it in for Chump?

My guess is there are dozens of potential deep throats just biding their time. Whomever tiny whatever anoints as director, s/he will be a paper tiger. No matter how qualified, and we all know how likely that possibility is, there will be no respect or allegiance from the bureau. Comey's firing may have been Chump's most stupid move yet.

2. I believe the original Deep Throat was a disgruntled FBI agent.

So, yeah, it can matter.

3. Actually, he was a Deputy Director, IIRC...

he was high on the food chain.
