Trump: 'I did not make, and do not have' Comey tapes (Video)
ABC News ^ | June 22, 2017

Posted on 06/22/2017 10:12:50 AM PDT by Swordmaker

Despite his tweet in the aftermath of James Comey's dismissal in May, President Donald Trump did not make and does not have tapes of his conversations with the former FBI director, he tweeted Thursday.

"With all of the recently reported electronic surveillance, intercepts, unmasking and illegal leaking of information, I have no idea whether there are 'tapes' or recordings of my conversations with James Comey, but I did not make, and do not have, any such recordings," wrote Trump in a series of tweets.

Comey changed his testimony under oath because of the lies he’d been telling.

Who ever has his offices and telephones bugged has them.

NSA? FBI? DNC? Soros? Obama?

Maybe all of the above.

“Trump tweets are now the only news source you can trust.”

Bears repeating.

LOL! I’m shocked I tell ya. Of course the implication is enough to send the dementocrats into conniption fits and demand a special investigation into WHY there are no tapes.

Float like a butterfly tweet/sting like a bee. Trump played that one word “tape” - like a ropadoping Ali.

Come get some, suckas :-D

No kidding. Of course he didn’t tape it, but Comey didn’t know that.

Not only that, but I suspect he went back and changed the stupid memos that he allegedly drafted after his one-on-one meetings with Trump.

1. After each of the one-on-one meetings with President Trump, Comey prepared a memo that contained outright lies and fabrications aimed at undermining Trump.

2. After he was fired, he sent them to his friend to read them over the phone to the New York Times. The whole charade was set up to ensure that nobody other than Comey and his friend ever saw them before they were leaked to the NYT over the phone. The NYT didn't even verify their authenticity by demanding to see them before running the story.

3. After Trump posted his legendary "He better hope there are no tapes" Twitter message, Comey went back and drafted new memos with all of the lies and fabrications scrubbed out. He gave them to his friend and to Mueller's office, and represented these as the real ones.

The Liberals on Twitter are very angry about this.

Anybody else wondering what’s taking so long for Sessions and Rosenstein to appoint a temporary FBI director? This is all inter-related. Timing is everything with Trump. Why did he wait until now to make this statement? Trump just moved one of his chess pieces with this tweet, but the overall strategy is still hidden.

Completely consistent with his earlier statement. People continually underestimate how smart this guy is.

His original tweet never said he did. Of course, that’s the truth, so I don’t expect our beloved media to know or care about it if it doesn’t suit their agenda.
