Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
Well now you gave away that you don't. Only an idiot would think there's tapes after this stunt.

I love how they're building it up. The best course of action would be to slip in their nonexistence in some press release or via Spicer but nope, we're dealing with a countdown.

Does anyone expect an actual answer considering how he tried to gaslight the public with pretty much everything else?

"The tapes don't exists, I never said they exist, and listen if I had tapes, yeah, you people would be the first to hear it. The best tapes, everything you need to hear. Great tapes. And that's why I'll make sure I get the tapes I have to you. Don't let the fake news tell you I'm witholding the tapes from you."

This week on .. The President:

Spicey gets fired and is tasked with choosing another contestant to replace him
"I can't talk about what the President said but it was certainly said by the president and some people know what he meant"

Jared speaks out, but does he speak too much?
"My papa in law says I'm in charge!"

Mitch makes an ultimatum on the vote for prettiest Representative
"I dont care that none of you have seen the candidates, we're doing this vote now and we're doing it live!"

And does Donald have tapes that prove he's the smartest man in the room?
"You'd better hope there aren't any tapes!"

Is there someone who know hows executive privilege works that can tell me if he can say the tapes exist, but say they contain sensitive or classified material, so he can't release them to the public?

"They do exist, but my hands are tied!" seems very Trump.

It'd be nice if this fucker actually did some work instead of focusing the attention on himself all the time.

I bet he says he has tapes and will release them at the appropriate time.

Then never releases them and when asked he will say "what tapes?"

Even if there are tapes - which there aren't - wouldn't releasing that create a whole shitstorm with a ton of important people how the White House has recorded their conversations?

If they don't exist, Trump once again is outed as a liar, if they do, he creates a ton of new problems for himself. What an idiot.

'Trump likely to ____' = 'Trump will decide while on the shitter at 3am what verbal diarrhea to spew on to twitter that's only tangently related to ____'

"Folks, I never said I had tapes. The fake news media did. This is a witch hunt created by the democrats for having lost an election. They shouldn't have lost. Believe me. The electoral college is not in favor of Republicans. There was no road to 270!"

Say he admits that they don't exist. Now that he is under investigation for possible obstruction of justice and everything he's done, including his tweets, are possible evidence, could they use this tweet as intimidate a witness? More so given that Comey is central to the whole thing anyway.

His own people said his tweets are official statements.

Probably dead wrong though, which is why I don't work in a law profession.

I think one of the worst things about this administration is that everything is turned into a primetime special. I mean here we have the announcement of an announcement to be scheduled at a time when he can book interviews etc. 45 threatened Comey with tapes months ago, Comey was asked about those tapes weeks ago, why the delay?

Listen guys, "Tapes" was in quotes.

He was repeating what WaPo said.

He thought Comey was making tapes.

He meant Obama's microwave was recording them.

"Tapes" means Comey's notes.

Drawing things out like it's before the break of a reality show is sickening. You're the POTUS you fat sack of shit. This is real life.

PRESS: "Mr. Spicer, does the tweet implying the existence of audio recordings of the President's conversations in the White House speak for itself?"

SPICER: "The President's tweets speak for thems- HEY WAIT A MINUTE!"

They used to exist, but they've had time to destroy them by now and pretend they don't.

I'd put money on it

This is fucking hilarious. What does he think he's achieving by waiting to admit that they don't exist? Does he think Comey is sweating about it? Or, well, anyone?

Because no one is.

Because if he had hard evidence that Comey was lying, that he was prepared to release. He would have released it right away. It was a dumb threat to try and stop Comey doing what he has now already done. The bluff was called. No one folded.

So cards on the table Mr President. Time to stop stalling.

This orange clown blurts out a ridiculous claim because he can't help lying, and then the whole Whitehouse operation has to go along with it because he can't be wrong about anything.

Meanwhile he's totally cleaning up Washington graft and corruption and making America Great Again.

There are three possibilities:

1. Trump records everything by habit and did so when he was a private citizen. In which case those have now been deleted.
2. He doesn't record anything and is and was full of shit for no good reason, as usual.
3. He didn't record anything before, but has started doing so since this mess began.
