She may have been wrong to ask the an investigation be called "a matter" but that is a far cry from what Trump asked Comey and others to do about Flynn.

(29,634 posts)Comey cost Hillary the election, in my book. Yes, there were other factors, but he could have been more forthright about the election meddling (and IMO, Obama could have been, too). Every time her numbers indicated a slight lead, there he was, knocking her down again.
I have no patience for this man.
