Which, really, is a bit of a silly position to take.

I have a recollection that the Manhattan FBI was likely feeding Rudy oppo material during the 2016 campaign.

Does that mean that Obama and Holder/Lynch weren't "managing their staffs"? Does it mean the FBI under the Obama Administration was corrupt?

I guess you'd argue it does.
