Comey: 'It Sucked' to Be Me in Final Days of 2016 Campaign

Former FBI Director James Comey said "it sucked" to be him the final 10 days of the 2016 presidential campaign and he felt "everybody hated" him after his late October letter to Congress about the reopening of the Hillary Clinton email investigation.

"What did it feel like to be James Comey in the last 10 days of that campaign after you sent the letter?" ABC host George Stephanopoulos asked in an interview airing Sunday night.

"It sucked," Comey said. "I walked around vaguely sick to my stomach, feeling beaten down, felt like I was totally alone, that everybody hated me, and that there wasn't a way out, because it really was the right thing to do."

Comey's Oct. 28, 2016, letter to Congress announcing newly discovered emails related to Clinton's private email server is still viewed by Clinton and her allies as one of the key reasons for her loss. Clinton has even remarked that if the election had been held Oct. 27, she would have been the 45th president.

I didn't read it, just the headline was enough.

This turd says it sucked to be him during the campaign. Being in the position he held at the time, he should have know he was not running for POTUS, and not being in the campaign should have kept his sorry self out of it.

After all the GOP members bragged on him when he got appointed, he sure turned out to be a disappointment. His wife and family were probably running the FBI from his residence. Now the jerk seeks attention like others that fail.

It sucks more to be him now. Screw him and his dirty people.

Listen closely and you'll hear the sound of J. Edgar Hoover spinning in his grave.
What an incredibly self-centered, self-promoting, egotistical, lying blowhard this guy is.
How he ever rose through the ranks to attain that position in the storied FBI completely eludes me.
What Apu did for the men of India, what Cliff Claven did for postal workers, Comey has done for FBI agents.
Sad.

12:27 He didn't rise through the ranks. Due to his connections he got to start at the top.

It still sucks to be him, and that is likely to continue. He more than deserved to be fired, and when he looks in a mirror he knows he brought it on himself. Assuming he can be honest with himself...far from a certainty.
