Earlier this week, Clinton spokesperson Nick Merrill accused former FBI Director James Comey of helping President Trump win the 2016 election, reports Fox News.

An Overview of Merrill’s Remarks

Even though the 2016 Presidential election is over, controversies about what engendered President Trump’s victory remain ongoing. Days ago, Merrill blasted Comey on Twitter, claiming that the latter caused Americans to feel “uneasy” by making a “public spectacle” of the infamous Clinton email probe.

Merrill then continued, accusing Comey of “bias” and stating that he ought to have “stood up” to then-candidate Trump:

James Comey has taken heat from Americans on both sides of the aisle. There are Democrats who believe that Comey’s email investigation aided President Trump’s campaign. However, some Republicans believe that Comey mishandled the Clinton email probe, intentionally clearing her. As a matter of fact, President Trump fired Comey in 2017, stating that the latter handled the email investigation poorly.
