Special Counsel Robert Mueller removed one of the agents, Peter Strzok, from the Russia probe "immediately" after learning of the texts in late July, the department said in a letter to lawmakers.
“I just saw my first Bernie Sanders bumper sticker. Made me want to key the car," Page wrote in an August 2015 exchange.
“He’s an idiot like Trump. Figure they cancel each other out,” Strzok replied.
The exchanges show Page and Strzok mocking Trump as early as December 2015.
Responding to a Washington Post story in 2015 about Trump saying it hadn’t been proven that Russian President Vladimir Putin had killed anyone, Page wrote: "What an utter idiot."
In a March 2016 message, Page exclaimed: "God trump is a loathsome human....omg he's an idiot."
"He's awful," Strzok replied.
The agents sometimes expressed support or at least respect for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
"God Hillary should win 100,000,000 - 0," Strzok wrote the same month.
"Also did you hear [Trump] make a comment about the size of his d*ck earlier? This man can not be president," Page said later in the exchange.

Do you read anything you type? Do you think that there are judges who don't have opinions about defendants? Seriously? Do you honestly believe that?
Of course they have opinions. Everyone has opinions.
Strzok isn't a judge and more importantly, he's not a juror. But even then, have you ever noticed that if a potential juror says they have an opinion about a case, the follow up question is whether or not that opinion would get in the way of the juror deciding the case fairly?
Strzok was part of an investigation. He'd be on the side of the prosecution and if you think that investigators and prosecutors don't have opinions, you're really out of your tree.

Opinions?
And you're absolutely certain these opinions don't color their investigation in the slightest?
It's no big deal?
Is that really your position, ante?
Seriously??? They agree that Trump CAN NOT BECOME THE PRESIDENT and you don't think they don't have a plot to bury Trump or do anything nefarious??? And she wanted to key a Bernie Sanders supporter's car because of a bumper sticker??? And you see nothing wrong with that...Apparently that's normal thinking and behavior for Democrats...

Politico - In texts, FBI agents on Russia probe called Trump an 'idiot'
Special Counsel Robert Mueller removed one of the agents, Peter Strzok, from the Russia probe "immediately" after learning of the texts in late July, the department said in a letter to lawmakers.
Looks like Strzok was removed even earlier than thought (by a couple weeks).
“I just saw my first Bernie Sanders bumper sticker. Made me want to key the car," Page wrote in an August 2015 exchange.
“He’s an idiot like Trump. Figure they cancel each other out,” Strzok replied.

So there it is. Nefarious! They had opinions about the election! In other words they seem to have been saying what tens of millions of other perfectly sane people were also saying at the time.
Nothing about the text seem to reveal any plot or a willingness to do anything untoward. Just the run-of-the-mill opinions that lots of people expressed. What's the new standard here? Anyone who ever texted "Trump is an idiot" is incapable of doing their job?

Put those guys with those views about the principals into a position of weighing the outcome and you get honest appraisals from such FBI agents? It would not be on my watch.

And so impartial. Do you even read what you type?
Would you like to go to court where the judge totally hates your guts before you even say anything?
