Former Director of the FBI James Comey

Stephen Sackur speaks to the former Director of the FBI James Comey.

When historians write their versions of Donald Trump鈥檚 extraordinary ascent to the Presidency, prominence will surely be given to the former Director of the FBI James Comey. He was a Republican hired by a Democratic President, whose handling of two key investigations; into Hillary Clinton鈥檚 emails and allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election, polarised America. His recent memoir was a withering condemnation of the man who fired him, President Trump. But has James Comey sullied his own reputation by stepping into America鈥檚 political swamp?
