My two cents: Comey is a sort of Dudley Dooright type on steroids.  A straight arrow without a ton of political instincts.  In any case, the idea that the Dems hated and now love him is a classic false narrative.  One of many put out by Trump, Fox, and Co to shift attention from the fact that the right controls the govt from top to bottom.  For a group that constantly whined about accountability prior to the election they aren't showing much now.  The truth that does matter: Trump fired someone that was instigating him or getting ready to.  Webster's definition of obstructing justice.
