“Admiral Mike Rogers runs the NSA. The NSA records everything. The President can ask Mike Rogers to let him listen to anything the NSA has recorded.”
Jeff Sessions as Trump’s ag could have asked our Brit Allies at their DCHQ to surveil Obama, Rice, Clapper, Brennan and Comey.
No FISA Warrant was/is needed. The New DCHQ would inform Admiral Rodgers of his nees. Then DCHQ could access NSA files in Utah or wherever on Comey and who ever he was planning sedition with.
So any conversation that Comey had could be reproduced as you noted. Comedy knows this, and Comey knows that Trump knows how to do this as Potus.
Comey was fired while he was in LA without any leaks or warnings. So, he didn’t have time to do an Illiarily Clinton bleach or shredding job with his computers, files, videos, and any tapes, that were in his FBI office before he was fired by Trump.
The “Tapes” which Trump referred to, and our pearl clutchers as usual suffered a severe case of hypoxia caused by vapors. They passed out and banged heads on their key boards, moaning “Oh No!”
Those “tapes” were never in Trump’s hands, his offices. If they are around, Jeff Sessions has them locked up at the DOJ with copies at the DCHQ and NSA.
May 12 feels like a year ago.
