It’s all James Comey’s fault.

Navin Nayak, head of the Hillary Clinton campaign’s research division, wrote in an email to senior campaign staff that the FBI director’s second letter absolving the former secretary of state a couple days before the election actually aided Donald Trump.

“We believe that we lost this election in the last week. Comey’s letter in the last 11 days of the election both helped depress our turnout and also drove away some of our critical support among college-educated white voters — particularly in the suburbs,” she wrote, according to Politico.

“We also think Comey’s 2nd letter, which was intended to absolve Sec. Clinton, actually helped to bolster Trump’s turnout.”

Clinton was set to win up until the last week of the election, according to Nayak.

“Voters who decided in the last week broke for Trump by a larger margin…,” she explained. “These numbers were even more exaggerated in the key battleground states.”

The FBI chief issued two bombshell letters to Congress right before the election. The first disclosed that agents had seized a laptop shared by Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband, Anthony Weiner, that contained more than 600,000 emails related to its investigation of Clinton’s private email server.

Several days later, Comey issued a second letter saying the FBI had analyzed the new materials and hadn’t changed its conclusion that there was no reason to prosecute Clinton.

Nayak said the second letter “energized Trump supporters.”

She also noted that after record early voting numbers, there was a significant drop in turnout in cities like Philadelphia, Raleigh-Durham, Milwaukee and Detroit when the first letter became public.

“In the end, late breaking developments in the race proved one hurdle too many for us to overcome,” Nayak said.
