The President Isn’t the Most Powerful Man in Washington Anymore

You can’t have it both ways, Democrats! 1791L’s fascinating dissection of the role FBI Director James Comey played in the election finale of 2016 confirms that Comey may be Washington’s most opaque and powerful man, in that no one knows which party he’s truly loyal to.

One day Democrats are singing his praises, and the next, they’re cursing him to the nether regions of the underworld. Is Comey a Democrat or a Republican? Is he beholden to special interests, or does he have the common man in mind when making pronouncements about political candidates or even the president himself?

The truth is that Comey has a long history of being on the inside of some of Washington’s most powerful and connected organizations, with stints as general counsel of Lockheed Martin — the Defense Department’s largest contractor — and as a director of the Swiss banking arm of notoriously shady global financial firm HSBC.

Watch this video on James Comey and what his actions over the last six months reveals about him. See if you too believe he is the most powerful man in Washington, even more so than the president himself.
