He comes across as honest and forthright, It's hard to believe Trump appointed him. I can't imagine any FBI Director acting any differently.
Law enforcement should be apolitical.
More from DUer Malaise:
He's publicly defending the institution and subtly telling the Con, Congress and whoever to cut the crap.
