Comey may try to escape on that technicality, but the point is that the memos already existed, and Comey had already leaked their contents before Trump's tweet.

There is absolutely no evidence that this statement is true. President Trump's "tapes" tweet appeared on May 12. The existence of the Comey memo was first mentioned in a May 16 article in the New York Times.

Please constrain yourself with the facts, Fred.

Yes, there is evidence that it's true. Comey is the source of the leaks on the 11th and the 16th. The only question is whether the leaks on the 11th involved the memos or not. That is the only remaining question. Since the memos -- I think this is the correct date if we believe Comey (a highly dubious proposition to be sure) -- came into existence on January 27th, and since some of the wording in the Time's story on the 11th appears to be in the reported in the 1st person (Comey's point of view), it is very likely indeed.

It's also likely that Trump already knew that Comey was the source of the leak on the 11th, which is why he tweeted what he tweeted on the 12th.

Comey is a liar, as he has shown on numerous occasions. This time, his lies may have actually broken the law.

Please stop pushing the progtards' agenda, SSS.
