Senator Rand Paul: Comey Was Unpopular on Both Sides of The Aisle, Lots of Crocodile Tears Happening

Republican Senator Rand Paul isn't buying all of the outrage on Capitol Hill today from Republicans or Democrats over the firing of FBI Director James Comey. 

During an interview Wednesday morning on Fox Business Senator Paul, who voted against Comey's confirmation, reminded viewers about Comey's unpopularity on both sides of the political aisle and called out colleagues for exaggerating the situation.

I was not a huge Comey fan, he politicized investigations, both sides of the aisle lost confidence in him. Lots of crocodile tears in dc
