28. Comey worked on the Whitewater investigation. He hates the Clintons more than he loves his country.

He also puts his personal "Legal" compass above the Constitution and the Spirit of Justice.

It's easy to figure out Comey. He's an authoritarian. He views the Clintons as a symbol of Governmental Corruption - hiding behind the legal loopholes in the Constitution. Far worse in his view than the venality of Mobsters who can be understood and reasoned with through profit motives and carrot and stick thinking.

Authoritarians always equate doing "the right thing" with whatever absolutism that simplifies decision making and makes their lives easier. Which is why Mobsters can corrupt otherwise moral individuals to work with them for the Mobster's plans... It's a game of Black and White or Law vs. Chaos.
