Yeah, you're right, he probably has to.

Trump warns Comey
I saw web headlines today that "Trump Threatens Comey" to "Warns Comey" to "Suggests". It appears Trump does not want Comey talking to the press.
Trump suggests there may be ‘tapes’ of his private conversations with former FBI director
quote:
President Trump suggested Friday that there may be tapes of his private conversations with FBI Director James B. Comey, whom he fired earlier this week, in what appeared to be an attempt to threaten Comey about leaking to the press.
quote:
James Comey better hope that there are no "tapes" of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press!
5:26 AM - 12 May 2017
quote:
Trump's tweet about Comey was likely a reaction to a New York Times report, published Thursday night detailing a one-on-one dinner Trump had with Comey shortly after the inauguration. The report said that Comey has told associates that Trump twice asked Comey during their conversation to pledge his loyalty to him, something the FBI director declined to do.
I also saw that Comey stated he hopes there are tapes.
One thing we know for sure......this show is just getting started.

Re: Trump shares classified intel with Russians?
But I wonder: what do the Trumpistas think about this? This seems to be a bit more serious than Clinton's emails. Are they now going to start screaming, "LOCK HIM UP!"?
Of course not. He's the president so for HIM there is no such thing as "highly classified intelligence."

Re: Special council appointed in Trump/Russia probe
Man, I hardly ever know what you are talking about.
The consummate spook Comey (who was so corrupt from the outset that everyone from Democrat to Republican felt he should not have been in his position in 2017 to start with ) fashioned a black memo literally weeks after President Trump is in office.
I note that you completely ignore the reptilian infiltration and control of the FBI.
God help us.
Yeah, she's been so much help in the past.

But there are very easy quotes to find about the "spooks" holding back documents from Nixon. From government officials in the administration.
LamarkNewAge writes:
The fact of the matter is that the agencies holding documents from even the President of the United States is a real issue.
I know it has been speculated about in the news media. When you say it is a "real issue" do you mean it is a bad thing or a good thing.
I personally hope that the agencies and people involved in U.S. national security are sharing as little as possible information with the psychopath in the Whitehouse.
Every day we learn about more connections with the Trump regime and our most deadly enemy (the one that still has thousands of nukes pointed at us). If it wasn't true it would make a great plot for a Tom Clancy novel. I normally make fun of conspiracy nuts, but in this case it looks to me like a group of deep-cover, covert, Russian operatives have taken over the Whitehouse and unfortunately for them their top guy turns out to be insane, with more psychotic personality disorders than have ever been documented in one person.

Re: Trump claims that it's a Witch Hunt.
Trump claims that it's a Witch Hunt.
Next he'll claim we dressed him as a witch.
And put the witch nose on him.
Well, he's safe then, you cannot turn an asshole into a witch, just like you can put candles on a cowpie but that doesn't make it a birthday cake.
Or you can put Trump in the Whitehouse, but he will never earn any respect as a President.

Re: The Mooch
I am surprised no one mentioned the Mooch has already resigned.
Boy, how scuzzy can you be. He didn't even give his two week notice.
Apparently, The Mooch was not even on the job yet.
Scaramucci got fired after 10 days. Before his formal start date.
quote:
Scaramucci began to serve in the role of White House communications director on Friday, July 21, and was due to officially begin August 15. His hiring provoked the immediate resignation of Sean Spicer and the belated ousting of Chief of Staff Reince Priebus on Friday, July 28. (On Thursday, July 27, the New Yorker published reporter Ryan Lizza’s account of a profanity-laced phone call he received from Scaramucci, in which Scaramucci insulted Priebus as a fucking paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac.)
Now he won't be able to claim he had to sell his hedge-fund because of his Whitehouse job. So he will have to pay taxes on the sale proceeds after all.
Sad really.

Boy Scouts dispute Trump claim
Boy Scouts dispute Trump claim that their leader called his speech 'the greatest'
quote:
The Boy Scouts of America is denying President Trump’s claim that the head of the organization told him it was the greatest speech the organization ever heard.
The Chief Scout Executive’s message to the Scouting community speaks for itself, the organization told Time magazine Tuesday.
quote:
Trump said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal last month that the head of the Boy Scouts had called him to thank him for the speech.
And I got a call from the head of the Boy Scouts saying it was the greatest speech that was ever made to them, and they were very thankful, Trump said in the interview, the transcript of which was released by Politico Tuesday.
quote:
Michael Surbaugh, leader of the Boy Scouts of America, apologized last week for the speech, saying that they "sincerely regret that politics were inserted into the Scouting program."
quote:
And by the way, I’d be the first to admit mixed. I’m a guy that will tell you mixed. There was no mix there, Trump said during the interview. That was a standing ovation from the time I walked out to the time I left, and for five minutes after I had already gone. There was no mix.
What a wonderful role model for the youth of America.

Re: What the goal should be...
I think the goal of every thinking American citizen should be to make sure Trump remains President for the rest of his first term but simply ignore anything he tries to do.
While I agree with the sentiment, I see the damage his appointees are trying to unleash on the various federal agencies. America is stuck between a bad and a worse place and the destruction of our government and society that has begun under these traitors may be unrepairable, ever.

Re: Trump/Turnbull transcript.

Who talks like that?
As far as I know, only one person on the planet out of 7.5 billion.
The good part is we know this is NOT fake news. Anyone who has watched 5 minutes of Don speaking knows this is exactly how he speaks.
On top of all his other personality disorders, we can also see that he is totally daft.
