I agree, it was handled so badly it stinks of being purposeful. Trump hit on it immediately, like 'OH, well, we have found a computer that might have those 30,000 emails they deleted everywhere else", etc etc.
I can honestly see a questionable logic in it. Comey’s story is he told everyone that investigation was complete. If they actually do find something damning, after the election, he ends up looking like he withheld facts that might have influenced the outcome of the election.
I’m trying to think of what I would have done, and honestly it is difficult. If there truly are thousands of her emails on the machine, I guess one could pull in dozens or hundreds of people to sift through them all for classified material, but who knows what that is, and how long it would take to figure it out.
I guess I would have held back til I knew something. I think that would be a good gamble, but a gamble it is, and if he fears all those Republican hearings that are no doubt on the horizon, perhaps he’s more afraid of them than her.
