the alt-right puts out tampered tapes i would not believe anything that the Trump camp produces. This man needs to be impeached as soon as possible!

If he isn't, every GOP House member should be voted out next time they are up.

Just in case there were any FBI employees who didn't think Twitler was a danger to our country, I think he resolved that issue.

Trump waived all executive immunity re: Comey the moment Trump started detailing specifics of previous communications. The letter, Twitter, tv interviews.

At this point, I have to say, the people trying to help Trump are Democrats. The GOP seems to not have a clue other than to be "yes" people.

I guess tRump must be talking about President Obama's illegal wiretapping of him. Is that STILL going on?

Trump specified that he talked on the phone with Comey, twice, and had a "nice" dinner with him. Three conversations.

He is absolutely obsessed with making himself richer and Russia is willing to help him. That is ALL that matters to him.

A lot of assumption that dipshit donnie has tapes. But if he talked to Comey at the FBI headquarters couldn't it be S.O.P. be to record all incoming and outgoing tapes from there? And does this have anything to do with the report of Comey's office being barricade taped off?
