program over the weekend. Comey was the FBI director from 2013 to 2017 — or for the first year and a half of Trump’s presidency.

Comey said he can, although he doesn’t want to, but he could. “Donald Trump has dragged this nation into this crazy world, but he could be sporting an ankle bracelet while accepting the nomination at the Republican convention.”“It would be rejected if you put it in a show script, but you could have a President who is possibly in jail when he is elected president, so that would be strange and awkward,” Comey said.
Then he continued, “It sounds absurd to even be saying this, but that is the scenario we face. “It appears that the Republicans will nominate someone who is the subject of a significant criminal investigation and has been charged. Who knows where that will take us?”
