Which is worse; Donald and his inappropriate remarks about women on video in 2005 OR Hillary's deleted emails debacle ?

You can't trust any politician, including Hillary, and Trump (who is not even a politician, but a freaking real estate tycoon and television personality by way of the ability of his money to buy him air time, not to mention a racist, inappropriate circus clown). But in a Friday memo to FBI employees, Comey suggested (The New Republic) what has now been widely reported—that the FBI has no idea what’s in these emails, let alone whether they’re duplicates of ones they’ve already reviewed—while admitting his letter to Congress stood a “significant risk of being misunderstood.” So WTF? For three days now, Clinton’s critics have used Comey’s letter to falsely claim she is once again the subject of a criminal investigation—and that Comey wouldn’t have intervened unless the content of the emails were especially damning, when, in Comey’s words, “we don’t know the significance of this newly discovered collection of emails.” The vagueness of Comey’s letter gives these immense political lies a horrifying patina of plausibility. For him to retreat back inside the lines now would be an unforgivable copout, placing him and agents under his direction firmly, if unwittingly, on the side of Republican partisans trying to swing an election, rather than on the side of the public, the FBI itself, or any other neutral interest.

"You can't trust any politician".
Perfect summary.

Comey was required to inform congress. The liberal congresscritters leaked it. All this is on hillary and huma.

not if he didn't even know what's in the emails, and he said he didnt' know.

In the Friday memo to his employees, Comey acknowledged that the FBI does not yet know the import of the newly discovered emails. “Given that we don’t know the significance of this newly discovered collection of emails, I don’t want to create a misleading impression,” Comey wrote.

Nick Ackerman, a former federal prosecutor in New York and an assistant special Watergate prosecutor, said Comey “had no business writing to Congress about supposed new emails that neither he nor anyone in the FBI has ever reviewed.”

He added: “It is not the function of the FBI director to be making public pronouncements about an investigation, never mind about an investigation based on evidence that he acknowledges may not be significant.”
