HILLARY CLINTON/JAMES COMEY/MEDIA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “When it comes to James B. Comey’s book-tour crusade against President Trump, the question for hard-core Hillary Clinton fans boils down to this: Curse Mr. Comey, or cheer him? Curse him, mostly. They may be card-carrying members of ‘the Resistance,’ who oppose everything that the president stands for, but Mrs. Clinton’s former aides and advisers are still too angry at Mr. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, to see past what they view as egregious actions that handed the White House to Mr. Trump. In interviews, Twitter posts, television appearances and private grumblings, Team Hillary is using Mr. Comey’s tell-all book to re-litigate their grievances, even at the risk of undermining Mr. Comey’s credibility and handing Republicans — and Mr. Trump himself — more ammunition to question the character of one of the president’s most high-profile political adversaries.”
