Former FBI director James Comey endorsed the Democratic presidential ticket, writing in a post Friday Vice President “Kamala Harris made me feel like it’s finally morning in America.”
“Everyone who cares about the rule of law and America’s indispensable role in the world should vote for Harris and Walz. I will,” Comey wrote in a post on X.
There is no love lost between Comey and Donald Trump, after the former president fired Comey in May 2017. Since then, Comey has publicly denounced Trump as “morally unfit to be president.”
Comey, once a longtime Republican, threw his support behind President Joe Biden in the 2020 Democratic primary − an endorsement that Biden’s campaign at the time was not keen to embrace.
“Yes, customer service? I just received a package that I very much did not order. How can I return it, free of charge?” Andrew Bates, Biden’s then-director of rapid response, wrote in a social media post.
