I don't think Comey is guilty of the crimes he has been charged with. In terms of Tish James and John Bolton, I'm not privy to the type information that would allow me to have any idea if they are guilty of the crimes they are being charged with. For example, I have not seen Tish James' mortgage forms.
There are some very important differences between the legal issues Trump faced since being elected in 2016 and how he is targeting his political foes currently. You are saying that it is all political retribution. I disagree. Trump is a con man and a grifter. He has been this way his whole life, long before his political career. He also a serial liar.
1.) Trump has faced 5 main cases, 4 of which are criminal, and they occurred in 3 different jurisdictions. It would be quite the vast conspiracy to coordinate all those moving pieces against him in order to conduct some sort of "retribution." Who exactly was coordinating all of that? Does it seem more likely to you that one man (Trump) is a criminal and a fraudster or that there are people from all sorts of political persuasions that stood up to him and all happen to be criminals?
2.) The federal cases against Trump were carried out by a special counsel and Biden did not micro manage his attorney general. Trump on the other hand is plain as day telling Pam Bondi to go after his enemies and there is no special counsel involved. I actually read a lot of legal documentation that was filed by Jack Smith against Trump in those two cases. Did you? The evidence is pretty staggering.
3.) None of the cases Trump is executing against his foes have gotten very far yet, but we did see that Trump lost both of the cases against him that made it through trial before his reelection and one of those cases was a jury trial.
4.) We have seen that experienced attorneys in the justice department have been refusing en mass to carry out these cases against Trump's enemies. The only people willing to do his bidding are very inexperienced types like Lindsay Halligan. Her case against Comey is also very sloppily put together, even though it hinges on essentially 1 sentence of testimony. They didn't have the discovery ready for his hearing the other day even though they had plenty of time. Seems to be grasping at straws to me.
5.) Comey, Tish James, and Bolton all have law degrees and all have practices as lawyers. It seems pretty unlikely to me, particularly in terms of Comey and James, that they would commit the crimes they are accused of when they were in positions that are so heavily scrutinized. Trump on the other hand does not have any legal background.
Also know that I am no fan of John Bolton and feel pretty neutral in regards to both Tish James and Comey.
