Yeah shooting from the hip may be self inflicting.

However I believe a significant section of the Public think that Comey is bias and is running protection cover for Clinton.
Comey favoring Clinton is expected since Trump is not NATO friendly.

Trump should be careful the FBI will hit him hard.

Everyone must now realize that the Russians have huge stuff on Clinton, based upon her carelessness. Trump if he is smart should refrain and allow surrogates to speak.

I cannot believe that Rump actually said this.

“Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” Mr. Trump said, staring directly into the cameras during a press conference. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”
He is literally asking a foreign power to hack into our government's secrets (as the case may be) and this nothing but treason. I knew he was crazy but crazy and stupid at the same time?

This is just Trump's latest way to be just a bit transgressive to get the media to be all about him. Again.

A position that would not lead to a consensus among all Americans of either party that Trump would be a good person to lead us. Which leaves?

I would remind everyone that the jury is still out on Russia. The evidence presented so far is vague and circumstantial, most of which is being volunteered by Guccifer 2.0 himself.

Not exactly what the two experts said on the PBS news. They said the address was the same one known to have hacked into other sites.

Anyone who watched knows he had just got done saying that the entire Russia connection was a deflection away from the content of the emails, and thus his statement was mocking the press for deflecting. That's why he ended by saying the press would probably pay Russia dearly for Hillary's emails.

This was the equivalent of Reagan saying the bombing starts in 5 minutes. You can keep flinging it at the wall, but it ain't sticking. It's trivial compared to the story sitting behind it.

And now Jake Sullivan puts out a statement that Trump calling for her emails to be found is a national security issue. Suddenly her emails are sensitive documents.

Somebody got Trumped.

That is some English you're putting on this latest faux pas from Der Trumpenfuror.

How exactly would the Russians go about hacking those emails now? They supposedly don't exist any more, right? FBI couldn't find 'em, and I'm sure the computers they tore apart are not connected to anything any more. For the Russians to be able to hack somewhere and find them, one has to assume that someone has them.

And why would it be a big deal if someone did hack and get them? Hillary said there's nothing classified in them anyway. Don't you believe her?

.

Indeed circumstantial, but enough to assume that the Russian have the goods on Clinton.
