Why Did James Comey’s Minion Go Bonkers Over This Donald Trump Tweet

Sometimes I think that if President Trump was able to put his Tweets on pay-per-view and charge royalties when pundits talk about them, we could retire the national debt in short order. Last evening this tweet came smoking off the presidential smartphone:
>>Donald J. Trump
✔ @realDonaldTrump
> Wow, Strzok-Page, the incompetent & corrupt FBI
> lovers, have texts referring to a counter-
> intelligence operation into the Trump Campaign
> dating way back to December, 2015. SPYGATE is in
> full force! Is the Mainstream Media interested yet?
> Big stuff!
This is the background.
Earlier this week the Senate Homeland Security committee released some 500 pages of documents received from Justice. Some of those pages were texts between FBI counterintelligence official Peter Stzok and his paramour, FBI lawyer Lisa Page and they were heavily redacted. Now there are other copies of some of the texts out there, provided the the DOJ IG which are less redacted. It seems like someone ran the two sets against each other to read what had been redacted.
. . . . . Images of documents . . .
(Skipped a bunch)
That provoked Trump’s tweet.
And that drew much more attention to the subject than it would have otherwise received.
In return, that led to a ferocious attack by a James Comey minion, Josh Campbell, who is now employed by CNN to cover James Comey
>> Josh Campbell Tweet :
> ZERO, repeat, ZERO indication this cited passage
> refers to the Trump campaign, Russia, or anything
> election-related. I’m the last one to give Page or
> Strzok the benefit of the doubt, but there is ZERO
> indication these texts from December 2015 are
> referring to the President.
I’d pretty well ignored all of this until Campbell weighed in. He’s right, of course, there is zero evidence that this relates to anything to do with the 2016 campaign. By the same token, there is zero evidence that it doesn’t and knowing the genesis of the FBI’s mucking about in the Trump campaign was as a counterintelligence investigation and Strzok was the number two guy in the FBI counterintelligence division makes this seem curious. The “lures” thing stands out as a flare because of the redaction. But the adamant response to Trump’s tweet, the ALL CAPS, screams, “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” The response is overkill in relation to the subject.
