Trump indicated, several times in public and in private to James Comey, that he wanted Comey to stay at FBI director.
Do what changed?
What changed is Comey refused to pledge loyalty to Trump.
That further shows Trump's decision to fire Comey was motivated by intent to obstruct justice.
At the very least, we have a president who is willing to lie to the public and the FBI director.

can be a veiled threat in Trump thug-speak.
We've all heard that kind of crap from bad bosses before.

He wants to deceive and confuse people. It's part of his nature.
