We shouldn't be surprised about the FBI intelligence investigation of the President

We should be relieved. We have watched collusion, conspiracy, corruption, obstruction of justice, etc, etc.

It has stressed us out watching all this unfold thinking that nothing was being done. Our country was being stolen from us before our very eyes and we were powerless.

I feel so much better that our institutions were on it.

The FBI sat on their hands as the Russians trolled our social media. They broke out the popcorn and smiled as stolen DNC emails were publicized. The watched, uninterested, as the GOP dropped its plank on Russian sanctions. Now, we find out, they finally started an investigation after Comey was fired. But first, there was significant hand wringing about what sort of excuse would justify such an unheard of action.

So yes the shoe was on the other foot during the campaign, including Comeys stupidity regarding Hillary’s emails.

Just imagine how freaked out that organization was when Comey was fired TI investigate the president.
