Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” pundit Dan Abrams said former FBI Director James Comey will not be convicted on either of the two felony counts he is charged with.
Abrams said, “When you talk about Andrew McCabe, for example, the Department of Justice inspector general looked into that, listened to what McCabe said, listened to what Comey said, and said we find Comey’s account more credible than McCabe’s. And what makes that particularly interesting is that they almost indicted McCabe back in 2019 for lying about the same conversation. They couldn’t get a grand jury to indict, and now they’re going to indict James Comey for that? So I don’t think that’s what this is about. I think, in the end, this is about another conversation.”
He added, “I’m going to go out on a limb here and say, I don’t even think that many in the Trump administration believe they’re going to get a conviction. I think that there’s a 95%-plus chance that there won’t be a conviction. That it’ll either get dismissed by a judge, there’ll be a hung jury, there’ll being an acquittal. But I’m not certain that that’s the end goal here. And that’s what makes this so unusual. Because typically, a prosecutor’s office will not bring a case unless they think they can win it.”
