After previously positioning himself by hugging Taylor Swift, the former FBI Director intentionally creates a very weird video, for a very specific audience, where he frames his defense.  WATCH (1 min):

Again, just for emphasis, this is the former Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The former FBI Director releases his defense statement on social media.

To those who live outside the USA this video looks very weird.  This is a psychologically disturbed individual, speaking in tones and terms specifically to his friends and compatriots in Washington DC.  To the DC people who operate inside this very bizarre reality bubble, this video looks entirely understandable; perhaps even relatable.

“The more he spoke of his honor, the faster we counted the spoons.”

Once you see the pathology, you can never unsee it.
