According to “Weve Got People,” the new book from The Intercepts DC bureau chief Ryan Grim, Clinton felt vindicated when Comey was fired, believing that he had unfairly sabotaged her presidential campaign.
She had spent the winter and spring poring over survey and turnout data, calling friends and former aides relentlessly, analyzing and re-analyzing.

Comey had finally gotten what he had coming.
