Oh, By The Way, Trump Apparently Also Asked Comey to Lock Up Reporters

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Let me say here that I don’t have entirely believe this New York Times story about Trump and Comey because no one has seen this memo and, let’s face it, it’s really one of those too-good-to-be-true stories we’ve been handed several times in the mere months Trump has been in office.

That said, this is a bit disturbing.

Now, I will say that Jim Acosta and Donald Trump have what you might call a “contentious relationship,” but the New York did in fact include it in their story. If the story of the memo holds up, then this is at least just as bad as Obama’s treatment of members of the media.

We just don’t have a(n alleged) memo of Obama asking the FBI Director to lock up Fox News reporters (..yet?).

This is not a request by someone who is a huge fan of the freedom of speech, and the request stands in stark contrast with the idea that he is a fighter the right to speak without having to be politically correct. If Trump wants to silence reporters by locking them up, then all this talk about political correctness means nothing because it’s all a First Amendment issue.

All of that said, I trust neither the Trump administration nor the media right now, so this supposed memo could be Trump asking Comey for dating advice.

      Comey’s “memo” is nothing more than something he wrote to himself. There are no tapes or any substantiating evidence of any kind. We don’t even know when he wrote it….or if he wrote it….. He probably wrote it AFTER he got canned. Can you say sour grapes?

      It is a big fat nothing. It is a big “He said, he said”…. It is completely ridiculous that ANYONE is paying attention to his libelous statements and giving them credence.

      In short, THERE IS NO MEMO. He wrote himself a note.

      Oh look, I’m sending a memo on Comey . In it he says that he’s going to lie all about Trump and get lots of publicity to bring down the presidency . Now why isn’t my memo front-page news?
