FBI Agent Peter Strzok Called Trump An “Idiot” In Texts Presented To Congress

The text messages sent between FBI Agent Peter Strzok, who was formerly part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into President Trump’s administration and Russia, and FBI lawyer Lisa Page have been released to Congress, CNN reports.

Strzok served on the investigation into Clinton’s infamous use of a personal email server and “softened” the language then-FBI Director James Comey used when discussing the bureau’s findings, CBS News reports.

Strzok, according to another report from CBS News, bemoaned Donald Trump’s victory, called him “an idiot,” and compared him to senators Ted Cruz and Bernie Sanders. Prior to the election, Strzok wrote that Trump “appears to have no ability to experience reverence which I [sic] the foundation for any capacity to admire or serve anything bigger than self to want to learn about anything beyond self, to want to know and deeply honor the people around you.”
