Reporter: "And you seem to be hinting that there are recordings of those conversations."

Trump: "I'm not hinting anything. I'll tell you about it over a very short period of time....Oh, you're going to be very disappointed when you hear the answer. Don't worry."

On whether he would be willing to refute Comey's testimony under oath, Trump said he would "100 percent" be willing to tell Special Counsel Mueller that he did not ask for Comey's loyalty or ask for him to drop the Flynn investigation.

Reporter: "Would you be willing to speak under oath to give your version of events?"

Trump: "100%. I hardly know the man, I'm not going to say "I want you to pledge allegiance." Who would do that? I mean think of it. I hardly know the man. It doesn't make sense."

The tapes could easily disappear just like emails do.

What a nothing-burger this waste of time is. Who cares?

Nixon liked to do that too.

The chicken race will be over when one participant swerves, or a victor emerges from the collision.

Nixon liked to do that too.

Recording your own office and tapping another person's communications are two different things.

What a nothing-burger this waste of time is. Who cares?

Just more bread-n-circus. A reality show for the masses. Idiocracy, but with fidget spinners.

Delay, deny, or attack. Trump spokesmen still won't say when Trump will say whether or not he even has any such tapes. Secret Service says they don't have any such things.

The Secret Service doesn't have any Trump-Comey tapes, and the White House isn't letting on any more

The US Secret Service said there are "no records" of audio copies or transcripts of recordings in President Donald Trump's White House.

The agency issued that statement in response to The Wall Street Journal's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request Monday, amid pointed questions following Trump's suggestion that there may be recordings of his interactions with former FBI director James Comey.

"James Comey better hope that there are no "tapes" of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press," tweeted Trump, following a New York Times report last month.

"In response to your request, the Secret Service has conducted a reasonable search for responsive records," the Secret Service wrote in response to The Journal's FOIA request in May. "It appears, from a review of Secret Service’s main indices, that there are no records pertaining to your request that are referenced in these indices."

"Lordy, I hope there are tapes," Comey said at his hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday.

Both Trump and his staff have yet to give a definitive answer on the existence of recording devices at the White House. Trump said to reporters on Friday: "I’m not hinting anything. I’ll tell you about it over a very short period of time.

"Oh, you’re going to be very disappointed when you hear the answer, don’t worry," said Trump.

Although the Secret Service has handled the White House's recording systems in the past — including for presidents Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy — the agency's latest denial may not necessarily rule out the possibility of a separate recording system, according to The Journal.

Is he keeping the tapes next to the actual Obama birth certificate?

 

[CPUd]

I'm sure he will play some tapes of something. Like a tape of Reince Priebus reading a written statement about how big the inauguration crowd was, or Jeff Sessions reading about the biggest ever electoral college win.

He might also reveal who the biggest a$$holes on RPF are.

Is it "Soon" yet? Are we hearing about them? Or are we still "very disappointed" as usual by Trump?

Newt Gingrich claims Trump lied about tapes of White House conversations to scare James Comey

'He's not a professional politician,' the former House Speaker says in the President's defense

Former Speaker of the House and longtime Donald Trump confidant Newt Gingrich has claimed the President lied about having tapes of his conversations with James Comey in order to intimidate the former FBI Director.

"I think [Mr Trump] was in his way instinctively trying to rattle Comey," Mr Gingrich told the Associated Press. "He's not a professional politician. He doesn't come back and think about Nixon and Watergate. His instinct is: 'I'll outbluff you'."

Mr Trump first appeared to threaten Mr Comey with recordings of their White House conversations in a tweet last month.

“James Comey better hope that there are no 'tapes' of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press!” he wrote.

The tweet came on the heels of a New York Times report claiming Mr Comey had kept extensive records of his meetings with Mr Trump in the months before the President fired him.

President Donald Trump said he doesn’t have recordings of his conversations with then-FBI Director James Comey, capping weeks of speculation about whether such tapes exist.

“With all of the recently reported electronic surveillance, intercepts, unmasking and illegal leaking of information, I have no idea whether there are ‘tapes’ or recordings of my conversations with James Comey,” Trump said Thursday in a pair of statements on Twitter, “but I did not make, and do not have, any such recordings.”

"I hope there are"- James Comey

To be fair, anyone who makes money selling advertising for news programs is very disappointed by this, so Trump is right.
