I suspect Trump hasn't a clue as to what his available options are or were and doesn't know what obstruction of justice is and so just assumed the way to handle this was to ask Comey to stop meddling and fire him if he didn't stop meddling because he didn't know any better.

Trump lived the first 70 years of his life firing people or hiring lawyers to get what he wants. It's no surprise he's this ****ing clueless. Trump is so stupid that if he were to get impeached, he'd probably say "You can't impeach me, I'm the President."

I read somewhere (maybe here!) that Comey was well known for taking notes meticulously.

Serious question - if it is believed that Trump may have recorded conversations then can he be forced to present this evidence under any scenario?

The job of an FBI agent is to develop and gather information that is admissible in court. It's not the only part of their job, but it's probably the most important part. It's second nature.

Burr's response--gee, it's not like this guy has subpoena powers or anything like that.

Knowing Trump, he gave away copies of the conversation to the Lavrov so it's still out there for the right price.

The big issue is leakers.

It is still amusing every single thing they have claimed "leakers" about they originally called lies, meaning they were not actually leaks unless they were flat out lying.

At least they continue to keep up this ridiculous charade. (But pronounce it in high faulting "Sha Rod")

Here's the thing, Trump could have just pardoned Flynn down the road if necessary. Insted he'd rather go with obstruction of justice. Chris Christie is an idiot and a jerk, but at least he could have educated Trump a bit on how to deal with the fbi/doj.

who plays Trump?

Seems obvious, but there has been lots of debate recently about when police can make people provide passcodes etc

But you'd think Trump would delete incriminating recordings as you say so it's probably a moot point.

Comey's notes are not going to be good enough for the Republican congress to impeach their president. Hopefully theyre really really meticulous. The quotes in the NYT article nails Trump's tone and style of speech.
