(4,834 posts)They showed Comey was right on so they got rid of them. Now he covers himself by carefully saying his weird statement that "He didn't make and he doesn't have" tapes and doesn't know if any exist. Can't wait til Mueller gets a few of his staff in the interrogation room to ask about this. Nothing Trump has said tells us there are no tapes or weren't any tapes. Why would he mention the possibility weeks ago? Do you actually think he is smart enough to think faking their existence would change Comey's testimony about his meetings with Trump?
