In reply to the discussion: So apparently Chuck Schumer still has not posted anything about the Comey indictment [View all]Bernardo de La Paz
(58,959 posts)Really, Schumer could speak up, and maybe should, but there is a ton of other things he should speak up against too or first.
The case against Comey will almost certainly fail, absent appearance of some smoking unicorn. It's overreach and that can be used as a prime example people can understand. They could only convince 58% of 24 person Grand Jury to indict the ham sandwich, even without any defence present. How are they going to convince 100% of a trial jury when Comey mounts a defence. The lawyer running this high profile case has never prosecuted and was an insurance lawyer. The lawyer already fucked up the very first hearing.
Many of these cases are launched for two reasons that operate even when bogus cases fail: 1) Keep the base donating, 2) Cause pain and financial loss to the victim.
