I didn't like the choice way back when with Obama in SC and was really opposed with Biden.

I will never understand why Dem presidents always, without fail, appoint repugliCONS to head the FBI & be AG

They will never give up. They will never stop trying to recast him as a misunderstood, underappreciated hero.

He clearly was never going to step down. History will not be kind, no matter much his small fanclub tries to spin it.
