    Former FBI Director James Comey on the Trump verdict
    Joe Donahue
    James Comey served as FBI Director beginning in 2013. He was fired by President Donald Trump and 2017. Earlier, while FBI Director, he came under intense criticism for concluding that Hillary Clinton, then the Democratic presidential candidate, had shown "extreme carelessness" by using a private email server for matters related to the U.S. State Department. However, they did not advise pressing charges. Clinton believes this contributed to her loss to Donald Trump in 2016. Joe Donahue spoke with James Comey on Monday about his initial reaction to Donald Trump being convicted last week on 34 felony charges.
