@@jonescrusher1 actually all the blame. I remember it like it was yesterday. After he claimed she was completely in the clear. Then suddenly he says there's new evidence which was never presented simply because it didn't exist.
This may be true, but the Democratic Party could have nominated Bernie Sanders, who is enormously popular with both left and centrist voters. They instead chose Hillary, who was probably the most disliked woman in America, who went on to insult voters as 'deplorables'.

I had held my nose and voted for Clinton but had no enthusiasm for volunteering or financially supporting her or the other candidates.
@@jonescrusher1 sanders had a much greater chance, let's be realistic, unlike Trump, who is a fake populist, he actually had (and has) an agenda helping largely working class people, and actually has an extensive record to back it up. If you look at the polls from that time, there was a huge overlap between people who wanted sanders but ended up voting Trump in the general at that time, and the economic agenda IS the reason, Hillary couldn't even be bothered to PRETEND to be anything other than a neoliberal hawk wall street candidate ☹️☹️☹️, add to it her general unpopularity, seksism, her sense of entitlement to the office, and the comey "investigations" and russian funded propaganda... And you get Trump 😩
The 2016 election was lost because, most Americans thought of Hillary Clinton as a power hungry women with no heart. And treated her as if she has been a president already Also all berni Sanders supporters stayed at home So a lot of voters thought that trump will never be as he was already showing himself to be. They thought he is going to be like George w bush, regardless of how clueless a lot of people thought he was , he surrendered himself with enough people who know what they should do All these factors led to trump James comey is not one of them
This fool should never show his face again. He was well aware of DOJ’s long standing policy against opening a criminal investigation against someone running for federal office, especially a presidential election, within 3 months of the election date. He knew exactly what he was doing.
Oh, man. You essentially put Trump in office. You did it. You knew there was nothing in those emails, but your misguided sense of whatever made you sink Clinton. You should be begging the world for forgiveness every single day, man. Every single day.

Nothing is in those emails except how Hillary and the DNC cheated their own voters out of the candidate that we really wanted. The thing you guys are so mad about is that Hillary and the wildly corrupt party leaders were exposed for the corrupt anti-democracy fixing of the primary to make sure the voters don't ever get the progressive policies they very well know that we want. you're mad at the messenger for letting us know how disgusting and corrupt Democratic party leadership is; you all preferred not knowing, and nobody knowing.

Yes, we in the UK didn't get the exposure of Trump in The Apprentice. I remember talking to Americans on a river cruise in 2016. Those voting for Trump said ''we need a businessman running the country''. Their image of him as successful came from The Apprentice. Democrats, on the other hand, said ''but he's been bankrupt six times. He's not a success''.
Trump personally was NEVER bankrupt. He sought chapter 11 reorganization for a few projects that, because of casino regulations or slow zoning approvals or economic disruptions did not work out. Nearly all real estate developers dealing with chaotic markets and fickle regulators do this when necessary. I'm not surprised that your Democrat interlocutors were ignorant of that aspect of the matter. Overall, the Trump Organization has been phenomenally successful.
Most Americans still believe humans can’t live responsible and caring lives without God. and that you have to be married to be trusted to have babies. I could go on, but I’m sure you could too. Oh, they have tipping….
The failure is in the claim America "needs a businessman" to run the country. That is totally wrong. What business would keep in stock Trillions of $$$ worth of plant and machinery that are doing nothing?? Governments do that with the most advanced Guns, planes, ships and tanks for just that time when they may need it. Not to mention trained servicemen. The alternative is to purchase on demand, but no business would survive like that either.
@@alffry5454 You have a very incorrect conception of what most Americans actually think these days. Such attitudes are probably more common in the US than in much of Europe, but it is not as common as you are implying here at all.
He was a real Republican rube throwing Clinton under the bus in 2016. Why is he even interviewed with such softball questions? Ask him why he helped throw it to Trump so close to Election Day? Shameful as FBI Director.
While I think Comey was irresponsible he is not to blame for your lack of critical thinking and not having the ability to research and come to an obvious conclusion Obama warned everyone that Trump was not mentally suited for the presidency but you chose to ignore that warning I found out very soon after he was elected that Obama was given a report from the military that found Trump was a sociopath and was psychologically unsuitable for command
The man tried to make sense to a man who has no commen sense. Comey should be commended for walking away from a what he could have become ,a lucky to someone who can't fathom anyone or anything past himself. Wake up.
He should be acknowledged for speaking the truth. Never forget he was, and still is an advocate of truth, which is why Trump can't stand him. Good for Comey!
Save it, Comey. Talk about your novels if you want, but no one needs to hear your opinions on how dangerous Trump is. We know. Thanks to you, we all really, really know. Give up the redemtion tour and help get out the vote for Kamala if you want to do something that might actually help.
He didn't necessarily 'start it.' ....but he definitely threw a log into the faulty locomotive's hot box, ....late October, 2016. To power the Trump train toward debilitating the USA.
Better yet, write about Rupert Murdoch and the damage he has done. Or Ronald Reagan who set the table. Or Newt Gingrich who created the anti-bipartisanship flame throwing political environment. Or Mitch McConnell who ran with it.
Read the book by Dr. Justin Frank titled "Trump on the Couch". He does an in-depth analysis of Trump's childhood trauma that gave rise to his personality disorder. He describes the hole that Comey is referring to as "the horror of the internal emptiness". A great read.
@@eastbaystreet1242 He was raised in a loving ambitious home and was given some money and then made some more money.He never drank as his father told him not to.

That is to suggest that McConnel and the dopy little guy, plays golf with trump did not play a part. Both of those blocked the US Government in many ways.
I agree with you. He violated his organization's own guidelines and started an investigation 10 days before an election. I have never heard him once say he made a mistake. This country's mess and the very existence of democracy or the lack there of in the future travels a straight line to Comey.

He bowed before the golden calf. To be fair though, there are many more who ate guilty by allowing the toddler to stay in that white house and speaking out so late.
Every time I see a DonOld ad begging for money, I give $2 to Kamala. I might go broke before the election because I see one of his ads every time I go on TH-cam. Ugh. I hope he goes away forever after he loses the election.
Smart man???? SMART MAN????? He almost single-handedly won the election for a sadistic, malignant narcissist who then spent 4 years bringing misery and heartbreak to many of us...and we still live in fear his cult will win the next election. Comey should be spending the rest of his life accepting responsibility and asking forgiveness not just from his fellow Americans but the rest of the world.
In a highly capitalist society teetering on fascism; you can't pay your mortgage, too expensive to keep your car on the road, can't afford to see a doctor, money is everything. All of that compassion you mentioned has been left out of all politicians and most wealthy people. People quickly forget how hard it was.
I like how he says he definitely regrets it and then Chuckles at the same time but yet he broke protocol by doing what he did this guy who is supposed to know the rules
@@williamyoung9401 No I don’t really. I was just being diplomatic. Mitch McConnell and James Comey are the culprits responsible for Trump’s presidency.
AFter a certain point, accumulating more wealth becomes an abstract way of "winning a game" and they paper over the enormous harms they are doing in order to keep "on top" of all the other players who couldn't spend all their money in a million years.
One could say the same of billionaire drug dealers. They're heroes in their home towns, simply because they're so rich and they buy matching shirts for the local soccer team. .....and mafia bosses, which Trump always wished he was.

@@carolannhartley359 no kidding. They'll have one interesting and intelligence left voice and five crazy rightwingers spewing about how Trump has this thing sewn up.
@@williamyoung9401 I can name a lot of professions where objectivity is supposed to happen. I can name at least one where it does happen more than not. Most people think that they make decisions based on facts and evidence, but very few do. Human nature is to make decisions based on instinct, intuition and emotion, and to rationalize our conclusions after the fact with whatever facts and evidence we can collect. We will make better decisions if we keep in mind our weaknesses.
I’m sorry, but since November of 2016, every time I see Comey speak critically of Trump I think the words, “that’s rich, coming from the man who put Trump in office.” Could have followed justice department protocols, but thought he knew better. Well, he put his thumb in the scale such that the candidate that had a private email server did not win. He enabled the candidate who, as a former President, would keep stolen nuclear secrets in his bathroom. Thanks, Comey.
I'm sorry -- I can never forgive Comey for what he did to the country in 2016. I couldn't sit through but a fraction of this interview. I just kept remembering the trauma of that election night.
For anybody not sure, here's the dictionary definition of "Demagogue" *_demagogue :_* a leader who makes use of popular prejudices and false claims and promises in order to gain power. I don't think there could be a better word to describe him.
I saw a documentary about Trump and there was footage of his father who I believe was also a narcissist- the things can be genetic not just environmental
It’s up to parents to “see” , and reflect back to their toddlers, to help put that sense of SELF into them. Trump was made, no doubt, but that doesn’t mean he should run a country.
from one psychotherapist to another, I have to agree with that statement. Although, small hands saw many ways not to act as Frank jr. He learned a lot from that. That was environmental. The rest, genetic. He had it in him all along.
Republicans and some Trump supporters say the elections are about policy, not about personality. It’s the absolute opposite. Even assuming that Trump has coherent policies, can implement them, and that you like them (all big questions marks), Just listen to what most serious people who have worked with/for him say, head of the FBI, his chief of staff, his national security advisor, his lawyer, etc. listening to them how can you think about voting for him for one minute??
Xman, if you were in Thailand talking to a bar girl, she would look at you and say two things, "farang tink tu mut" (foreigners think too much), and "You wan beah?" (buy a beer, or quit taking up stool space).
Everyone outside America does and has ever since Trump came to our notice when he appeared as the President on The Simpsons. There are people in this world who think if they don’t watch tv the characters will die.
“Functioning adult” sounds like a well oiled machine… most people are functioning and yet with democracy we choose thieves over actual billionaire who produces for his country in many ways
Commey, u r THE reason we r still dealing with Trump. Hate to blame u for the fall of democracy, but America may fall ......

He bowed before the golden calf. To be fair though, there are many more who ate guilty by allowing the toddler to stay in that white house and speaking out so late.
I see Comey is still trying to rehabilitate his reputation after he helped put Trump in office.
"He's a narcissist, and I deliberately broke with agency policy and helped him get elected".
Isn't this the guy who gave us donny?
Nothing he says or does will ever make up for what he did
Six-foot-eight, I didn't know they stacked shyte that high!
James this is a little late, i blame you for helping Trump to get elected.
Stay away from the campaign comey! October is coming up remember what happened last time you opened your mouth.
Outstanding interview. Thank you.
@@Zakarias-b2g Have you never read 1984?
Comey should come clean and tell the truth
Everyone deserves a chance to repent, but dude should recognize his role in putting this cancer into American politics. Shame on you Comey!
Every time I see a DonOld ad begging for money, I give $2 to Kamala. I might go broke before the election because I see one of his ads every time I go on TH-cam. Ugh. I hope he goes away forever after he loses the election.
Yes, he needs to go away - sooner than later. His sickness is making the nation sick. We share his psychosis.
Glad he’s speaking out against 🍊but needs to explain his stance on blasting Hillary just before election. Why did he do that? He lacks credibility.
Hilary was guilty
"But her emails..."
Still haven't forgiven that "October Surprise", doubt I ever will.
He’s the reason we have trump
This interview was fascinating. Smart man.
Smart man???? SMART MAN?????
He almost single-handedly won the election for a sadistic, malignant narcissist who then spent 4 years bringing misery and heartbreak to many of us...and we still live in fear his cult will win the next election.
Comey should be spending the rest of his life accepting responsibility and asking forgiveness not just from his fellow Americans but the rest of the world.
In a highly capitalist society teetering on fascism; you can't pay your mortgage, too expensive to keep your car on the road, can't afford to see a doctor, money is everything.
All of that compassion you mentioned has been left out of all politicians and most wealthy people. People quickly forget how hard it was.
Trump behaves like a child.
He is a spoiled child in a grown up's body !😢
I was never such a child.
I've been a step-dad to 22 little kids (at various times). No child I watched after - was remotely as bad & naughty as old geezer Trump.
Comey is the last person in the world who should be speaking publicly before an election.
I like how he says he definitely regrets it and then Chuckles at the same time but yet he broke protocol by doing what he did this guy who is supposed to know the rules
James Comey belongs in jail!
I trust Comey like 0.001 %.
You trust him THAT much?
@@williamyoung9401 No I don’t really. I was just being diplomatic. Mitch McConnell and James Comey are the culprits responsible for Trump’s presidency.
You got Trump elected Mr Comey. You did it.
A lot of insightful comments in this interview
I can understand why Trump sack him. James is intelligent well educated, honest and seems like a very pleasant chap.
You helped him win in 2016! Comey!
AFter a certain point, accumulating more wealth becomes an abstract way of "winning a game" and they paper over the enormous harms they are doing in order to keep "on top" of all the other players who couldn't spend all their money in a million years.
One could say the same of billionaire drug dealers. They're heroes in their home towns, simply because they're so rich and they buy matching shirts for the local soccer team. .....and mafia bosses, which Trump always wished he was.
& you helped him win in 2016. Bravo!!!
Despicable person. Yes, I mean Comey.
I don’t like Trump and I don’t like you either.
So sanctamonious Mr James Comey. Short memory syndrome!
Thank you, this is such an important message. Moral character, honor & conduct matter in our elected leaders. Proud Texan, conservative Christian and patriot putting Country over a Republican party that has lost its moral compass - voting ALL BLUE. ✝️🇺🇸🧢🧢🧢
Country over party. 🇺🇸🧢
We will not bear good fruit in our country with a convicted felon and lifetime conman.
Thanks for nothing, Comey.
"I don't know what happened to the guy?" - Jesus, just about everyone knew he was a demagogue before he was elected. How could someone be so ignorant? Why is he being given any time on Times Radio?
I find Times Radio's coverage of Ukraine to be pretty objective, but not their coverage of US matters. I remember the first one I heard, a report from the Times staffer in DC. I was aghast; it sounded straight off Fox.
@@carolannhartley359 no kidding. They'll have one interesting and intelligence left voice and five crazy rightwingers spewing about how Trump has this thing sewn up.
"We make decisions based on instinct, intuition and emotion". Never forget that. It certainly explains the last 14 years in Britain.
Isn't an FBI agent supposed to do the exact opposite of that? You know facts, evidence, and stoicism?
@@williamyoung9401 I can name a lot of professions where objectivity is supposed to happen. I can name at least one where it does happen more than not. Most people think that they make decisions based on facts and evidence, but very few do. Human nature is to make decisions based on instinct, intuition and emotion, and to rationalize our conclusions after the fact with whatever facts and evidence we can collect. We will make better decisions if we keep in mind our weaknesses.
I’m sorry, but since November of 2016, every time I see Comey speak critically of Trump I think the words, “that’s rich, coming from the man who put Trump in office.” Could have followed justice department protocols, but thought he knew better. Well, he put his thumb in the scale such that the candidate that had a private email server did not win. He enabled the candidate who, as a former President, would keep stolen nuclear secrets in his bathroom. Thanks, Comey.
I'm sorry -- I can never forgive Comey for what he did to the country in 2016. I couldn't sit through but a fraction of this interview. I just kept remembering the trauma of that election night.
James helped trump in 2016.
Good for Mr. Comey standing up to this narcissist. Nice pivot into literature. 😊
So why did he play into Trumps hand
For anybody not sure, here's the dictionary definition of "Demagogue"
*_demagogue :_* a leader who makes use of popular prejudices and false claims and promises in order to gain power.
I don't think there could be a better word to describe him.
I saw a documentary about Trump and there was footage of his father who I believe was also a narcissist- the things can be genetic not just environmental
It’s up to parents to “see” , and reflect back to their toddlers, to help put that sense of SELF into them. Trump was made, no doubt, but that doesn’t mean he should run a country.
from one psychotherapist to another, I have to agree with that statement. Although, small hands saw many ways not to act as Frank jr. He learned a lot from that. That was environmental. The rest, genetic. He had it in him all along.
Wait I see two narcissists.
But her emails!
Thank you. Somewhat clarifies the absurdities of the moment.
PENNSYLVANIA: Harris 51%, Trump 45%, Stein 1%, Oliver 1%
MICHIGAN: Harris 50%, Trump 45%, Stein 2%
WISCONSIN: Harris 48%, Trump 47%, Stein 1%
i am Russian even I know that Ms. Kamala is going to win
Focus on the electoral college and cite your sources next time.
@@arcusmcHow many electrical college votes does Pennsylvania have?
Is this with or without gerrymandering.
Those are some optimistically selected polls
Republicans and some Trump supporters say the elections are about policy, not about personality. It’s the absolute opposite. Even assuming that Trump has coherent policies, can implement them, and that you like them (all big questions marks), Just listen to what most serious people who have worked with/for him say, head of the FBI, his chief of staff, his national security advisor, his lawyer, etc. listening to them how can you think about voting for him for one minute??
Xman, if you were in Thailand talking to a bar girl, she would look at you and say two things, "farang tink tu mut" (foreigners think too much), and "You wan beah?" (buy a beer, or quit taking up stool space).
@@brahmburgers Thant’s probably the most irrelevant and not-funny comment I’ve ever seen.
Why aint "Laptop Jimmy" in jail?
Would Comey be so anti Trump if he hadn’t fired him?
I believe he would.
Yes, and you helped him be president & the whole mega movement by the bs about Hillary, James.
How could anyone not already know that?
Everyone outside America does and has ever since Trump came to our notice when he appeared as the President on The Simpsons. There are people in this world who think if they don’t watch tv the characters will die.
“Functioning adult” sounds like a well oiled machine… most people are functioning and yet with democracy we choose thieves over actual billionaire who produces for his country in many ways
Who are you talking about?
they created the Biff Character in back to the future after him...
