I don't even get what he's trying to say. Does he have some reason to think that Comey is planning to leak something to the press? If the tapes exist then how is Comey going to "make sure they don't?" If he trying to imply that Comey has said some embarrassing things?

How can he possibly think that this makes him look like anything other than profoundly guilty?

He's threatening Comey and telling him to keep his mouth shut. Presumably Trump recorded their conversations and has damaging stuff to release on Comey should he talk.

I think the only possible source of the private one-on-one meeting where Trump asked Comey for a loyalty pledge is Comey himself, but who knows.

He's threatening Comey and implying the Comey is lying to the press to make Trump look bad. He's saying that if Comey "lies" to the press, Trump will release audio recordings he's made of conversations with Comey.

The big takeaway is that Trump is admitting to recording conversations with people. That's a big part of what hosed Nixon.

Wait, I think I get it. Is he trying to imply that Comey will "leak" things about his conversations with Trump, but in reality just make poo poo up? Like, pretend that Trump said something he didn't say? Or that Comey didn't say something? And Trump is warning him not to spin bullshit because otherwise he'll release the tapes showing what was really said?

I can only assume this is Trump's way of covering his rear end with the "Comey personally assured me I am not under investigation" thing. Maybe he's worried Comey is going to come out and say "actually I never said that and Trump was actually under investigation" and is trying to nip it in the bud?

gently caress me it is difficult to understand Trump's thought process.

because that's fraud and it's beyond trivial to prove because an investigation could subpoena the IRS copies and the IRS would basically be like "lol, ok" if served with papers from any legitimate court

Trump has no willingness to go through that effort/risk when in his mind the matter of financial conflicts of interests is settled with a press conference with a bunch of manila folders filled with blank paper.

I've had a personal theory that race relations reached an apex in the 70s and have been cascading downwards since Reagan, made worse still by all presidents since.


Does this theory hold true?

race relations is a garbage term

its not a situation w like uh the interactions of race based power blocs negotiating diplomatic accords

its literally just racism, 'race relations' is about problems arising from racism

there's some story about him doing this in a business lawsuit years ago. he showed up for arbitration and whipped out a tape recorder as if he just found a magic bullet and his lawyers immediately knew that they'd totally lost.
