COMEY: Oh, serious for the Justice Division and the FBI, because Trump is coming for those establishments. He knows their power. And I feel he has regrets that he didn’t work arduous enough to corrupt them ultimate time. So he’s coming for them. And that’s a danger for all American citizens. He’s going to position people in positions in these companies. He didn’t have all-stars the remaining time. He beloved the bottom of the barrel this time. But individuals who will wish to do his will, and that will have to fear every American. This election issues as a result of a purpose like that. Folks need to take part. You can’t sit on the sideline. I don’t care how you feel about Joe Biden. You need to vote for him because the penalties on the other aspect are too extreme.
