Former FBI Director James Comey took heat from the very Democrats he now supports against Trump after showing off a photo of himself wearing sunglasses and a T-shirt that says “ELECT MORE WOMEN.”
Comey shared the photo and wrote “#19thAmendment is an important anniversary but the vote is not enough.”
He added “We need more women in office. VP and Virginia governor are good next steps.”

Comey’s sudden attempt at feminism did not go well on Twitter with Democrats who saw his messaging as hypocritical and blame him for costing Hillary Clinton the 2016 election.
Here are just some of the many replies Comey received.
There are a LOT and they are nearly all negative.
“What a shame that you are wearing this, you should of thought about that 4 years ago…Instead look at what happened to you with the CROOK that sneaked into the WH and we are all suffering because of your actions that turned out to be the lesser of the two EVILS…”

“This is pretty galling considering the way you torpedoed Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign and in doing so put that disaster of a man in the Oval Office”

We had a strong, qualified woman who should’ve been elected POTUS in 2016 but you chose to disregard policy 11 days bf the election. Now we are locked in our houses & in our country, suffering 1000+ deaths/day, economy in shambles & a compromised foreign asset squatting in our WH
