Former FBI Director James Comey is urging "all who believe in this country's values" to vote for Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections.
In a tweet on Tuesday evening, Comey called the Republican-held Congress "incapable of fulfilling the Founders' design."
"This Republican Congress has proven incapable of fulfilling the Founders' design that 'Ambition must ... counteract ambition.' All who believe in this country's values must vote for Democrats this fall. Policy differences don't matter right now. History has its eyes on us," he wrote.

(6,137 posts)No one who was otherwise going to vote Republican is going to vote for a Democrat because James Comey told them to and it just feeds the narrative that the whole Trump-Russia investigation is a left wing plot.

I've got a dear friend who says that the Republican Party is the biggest threat to world peace, and indeed the very existence of humanity.
He's right, too.
