I've forgotten, why didn't Comey and the deep state just ignore Hillary's server problem. I don't recall that much pressure on the situation. In hindsight, I think blowing it off like they do most of the time now, would have been a better approach. What they actually did, did not help her and it is patently obvious that mission #1for the deep state was to hurt Trump and by doing that, help her.
Her server issue became known in early 2015, before the primaries and before Trump even announced, IIRC. So the FBI was not so inclined to ignore it since she was not the nominee, yet nor was Trump on the scene. She had left the State Department in 2013, I believe.
There were some inklings about this other server during the Benghazi hearings but nothing was fleshed out. Remember when Jason Chaffetz's jaw dropped when Comey said the FBI didn't even review her sworn testimony before his committee because they had not made a direct referral.
But when the emails became public on wikileaks, there was no tamping that down.
