Trump: "Cowardly Comey" Leaks "Far More Prevalent Than Anyone Ever Thought Possible"

After waking up on Sunday, Trump didn't waste much time before taking to his favorite social network, where in a series of tweets, he first took credit for the latest Dow Jones record high, while praising the record "business and economic enthusiasm", slamming "obstructionist" Democrats who "have no message, not on economics, not on taxes, not on jobs, not on failing #Obamacare", and lashing out at "cowardly" Comey’s “leaks” will be “far more prevalent than anyone ever thought possible.”

"I believe the James Comey leaks will be far more prevalent than anyone ever thought possible. Totally illegal? Very 'cowardly!',Trump said in a Tweet at 8:30am on Sunday.

... suggesting that Comey's admission that he leaked information to the NYT is just the tip of the iceberg.

Trump's tweet was his latest response to Comey's testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee where as a reminder the former FBI director said he leaked notes of his conversations with the president to the NYT through a friend in the hopes it would lead to the appointment of a special prosecutor. Comey said his decision was prompted by Trump’s suggestion, made on Twitter three days after his firing, that he may have secret recordings of their conversations, something Trump made a cryptic refernce to during a Friday press conference when he refused to address the subject but said the media would be "disappointed" with the outcome.

“My judgment was, I need to get that out into the public square,” Comey told the intelligence panel. “I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter. Didn't do it myself for a variety of reasons. I asked him to because I thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel.”

  1. I'm still in shock Comey admitted to lying to the American people to help Clinton campaign because his boss told him to..Then leaked records to a college teacher because the sitting president hoped someone's investigation would end.... He will go down as the BIGGEST FRAUD of the FBI... Comey acted extremely reckless.
