10. I don't think he intended a Trump victory with all of that

...I think he assumed a Hillary win.

Anyway, it's not exactly in the interest of prosecuting Trump to put all of that before the details of Comey's investigation he began under Obama. It's important, but not as actionable right now as is Comey's subsequent fight to preserve the integrity of his probe and his testimony about Trump's interference.

Eye on the ball.

It adds up if trump didn't respond the way Comey expected lunamagica Nov 2017 #28

Well, maybe. In fact, I think there's a lot more going on than we know. crosinski Nov 2017 #55
