Resigned immediately after being instructed by the AG to downplay the Clinton investigation. Comey thought like too many other people, that Clinton was going to win the election so he would be safe.
After the news broke that Lynch met Bill on the tarmac for an obvious collusive meeting, Comey had no choice but to bypass Lynch in an attempt to save face. He still felt however, that Clinton was going to win the election so he had to protect her but make it appear as though she made grave mistakes. This was all orchestrated to make it appear that he was a tough and fair FBI director while at the same time letting Hillary off the hook to cement his future.
He claims that he felt threatened by Trump's meeting with him but it would seem that he would also feel threatened by Lynch's ordering him to downplay the Clinton investigation. So why then, is there no memos of the Lynch conversation?
The bottom line is that I want my FBI director to be fair and independent. By Comey not bringing out the Lynch thing until today shows that he is by far not a fair and independent guy. You cannot make memos and claim you felt pressured by one party and not the other and maintain your integrity. Period!!
