Will James Comey do the right thing?

We know he was doing everything possible to help Trump and hurt Hillary in 2016, but as someone insightfully brought up here a DU last night, will Comey have a John Dean moment and do the right thing?

No scruples or sense of duty, honor, country. He is the Donald's bitch.

However, Bush was President and she was a Democrat and Clinton supporter and it was more convenient and easy to make her an example rather than more powerful stock traders who bilked millions from market but were more skillful than Martha in covering their tracks and hiding their motivations (her trade only saved her about $50,000)

I didn't really think he'd do the right thing, but just wonder if he could flip like Dean. I know he is too knee deep in it.

So with that out of the question, how do we demand an independent prosecutor investigate all of it?

I am willing to work for massive general strike if that is what it takes!

It would suck, but I would take it to nail the rest of the GOP criminal cabal!

He's not going to voluntarily expose himself.

I am counting on some patriots in the FBI to do their duty and expose these nefarious traitors.
