Meghan McCain to James Comey: Are You Sure You're Not a Partisan Political Commentator? Cuz You Sorta Sound Like a Partisan Political Commentator to Me

By the way, does anyone else notice that Comey looks luminously orange, with ghost-taint white half-moons under his eyes, in all of his media appearances?

Check out Comey's Hunter Moon make-up on the former Bill Clinton communications director's nonpartisan political show, and this other picture from that appearance here, and then compare those looks to the lambently-orange glow he sports on The View appearance (video at the link).

Who's orange now, bub?

It's almost as if that's a fairly standard make-up application for tv appearances, and it's almost as if someone who spent a decade on TV might have just adopted it as a habit.

"I want to believe you're not a political person," McCain said to Comey. "You’re the head of the FBI, but you write in your book how you went to President Obama, and you were on the verge of tears, saying you were going to miss him. You also said were dreading the next four years with Trump."

...

McCain then brought up how Comey's wife went to the anti-Trump Women’s March and was "very sad on election night."

"But why bring up politics now?" McCain said. “No disrespect, but what your take on the current Republican Party is -- I'm more interested in what you know about national security."

"I brought it up because I was asked about it," Comey said.

Later in the interview, McCain told Comey that he sounds "like a political commentator."

Incidentally, John Sexton writes that Comey has a good, sound explanation as to why he felt it necessary to note that he was (briefly) re-opening the Hillary Clinton investigation despite all the caterwauling from the left that he should have done his Deep State Duty and concealed that information from the public.
