Trump says 'made up' Russia story was part of decision to fire Comey
President Trump on Thursday cited the FBIs probe of Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election as one of his reasons for firing former FBI Director James Comey.
Regardless of recommendation, I was going to fire Comey, Trump said during an interview on NBC Nightly News. Knowing, there was no good time to do it.
And in fact, when I decided to just do it, I said to myself, You know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made up story, Trump added.
Its an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won. This was an excuse for having lost the election.

that he loses track.
I hope the FBI gets enough hard core evidence that, except for his very stupidest followers, no one will bother to deny the guilt of him and all the others that are complicit.

have to go back repeatedly to check that it hasn't replaced what you wrote yet again!
