President Trump on Friday issued a cryptic threat to James Comey, saying the fired FBI director should hope there are no recordings of their conversations.
James Comey better hope that there are no "tapes" of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press! Trump tweeted.
A number of reports late Thursday showed current and former FBI officials contradict Trumps account of a meeting he had with Comey earlier this year.
Trump said in an NBC interview on Thursday that Comey had requested a dinner with him during which he asked to stay on as the FBI head. Trump also said Comey told him three times twice over the phone and once at their dinner meeting that he was not the subject of any FBI investigations.
FBI officials contradicted Trump's claims in an NBC News report, saying the dinner meeting was requested by the White House, and a former senior FBI official said Comey would have never told the president he was not under investigation.
And the New York Times, citing two people who have heard his account of the dinner, said Comey was asked by Trump for his loyalty at the dinner. The then-FBI head reportedly responded that he would offer his honesty but not political loyalty.
