Testify under oaths about conversations between trump and comey. He said you said you hoped the Flynn Investigation i didnt say that. So he lied about that . Well, i didnt say that. I mean, i will tell you i didnt say that. Trump then denied ever asking comey to pledge loyalty to him. Did he ask for a pledge of loyalty from you . Thats another thing he said. No, he did not. So if he said those things under oath, would you be willing to testify under oath to give your version . 100 . 100 . Trump agreeing to be deposed by special Counsel Robert Mueller in the investigation. Its incredible. Investigators have now sent letters to comey and the white house. They want the memos and they want the white house tapes if they exist. Sara murphy is out front front at the white house. Now were going to have one person said it under oath. The other who has said he will say it under oath. This is one mans word versus another. Thats right. Its a he saidhe said situation. Both say the other is lying. The difference is james comey delivered his testimony under oath already knowing what the penalty would be if he lied. Now President Trump says hes willing to do the same. No collusion, no obstruction, hes a leaker. A defiant President Trump says hes willing to testify under oath about his conversations with james comey. So he said those things under oath, would you be willing to speak under oath to give your version of 100 . Reporter after restraining himself during comeys testimony on thursday, today trump is going on offense. Frankly, james comey confirmed a hot of what i said and some of the things that he said just werent true. Reporter one day after comey made clear he thought President Trump lied, trump accused the former fbi director of lying under oath. But he refused to say whether he has tapes of his conversations with comey. Ill tell you about that maybe sometime in the very near future. Youre going to be very disappointed when you hear the answer. This, as trump and allies adopt a Defense Strategy insisting the president is in the clear because comey testified trump was not under investigation when comey still led the fbi but arguing that other parts of comeys testimony are a fraud. Trump insisting he never asked for him to back off the investigation of michael flynn. I didnt say that. So he lied about that . Well, i didnt say that. I will tell you i didnt say that. And did he ask for a pledge of loyalty from you . Thats another thing he said. No, he did not. I hardly know the man. Im not going to say i wants you to pledge aleejs. Who would do that . Reporter while the president may feel exoneratesed members of his own parties are airing their concerns and saying theant csed a line. The president asked mr. Comey to do an inappropriate action and that was to drop the investigation of michael flib. That was clearly inappropriate. It crossed a boundary that the president should not have crossed. Reporter now, remember, President Trump is the one who initially raised this idea that he could have taped of those conversations with james comey and theyve been coy about it at the white house ever since. Seems like that game is going to be come to an end as house investigators say they want to see the tapes. Im sure they do. Well find out if they exist. Now the white house is being called on to turn over private recordings and the fbi director. Ryan, the president not saying if those recordings exist though he continually encourages questions about them. What are you lenk about the requests to obtain them . Reporter thats right, erin. That speculation just swirling around since the president sent out that tweet on may 12. Now house Intelligence Leaders would like to put that speculation to the end. Firing off a letter to don mcginn demanding to know whether or not these tapes exist. Theyve set a decline, its june 23rd. Two weeks from today. Theyre looking for memos that james comey wrote after those interactions with President Trump. They sent a letter to comey specifically asking him to hands those over. The memos are something that many in washington have been asking for for sometime. In fact, the Senate Intelligence committee has demandsed those memos for quite a while. They tacked about it. Theyve now sent a letter to Daniel Richmond, the columbia law professor who comey talked about who he gave those memos to and then richman eventually handed them over and talked to reporters about them. Everyone wants to know what happens in these conversations between donald trump and james comey. It seems as if the leaders on capitol hill are getting closer to getting some more insight into that. Thank you. Out front front now, john dean, former Nixon White House counsel, april ryan from american urban radio networks, mike rabino and dan phifer, former Senior Advisor to president boy john dean, let me start with you. President trump says a hump, he is 100 willing to speak under oath. How significant is that . Well, if it becomes oneonone, it really is going to weigh in favor of comey for this reason. He made contemporaneous notes of his conversation. Those actually have evidentiary value. A good prosecutor or a good lawyer just depending on the circumstances, can bring that into evidence and that will tilt most juries, if not the american public, in their opinion and if theyre looking at it without any just coldly without any partisan viewship of it, it favors comey clearly. Le. Comey says trump is lying under oath. Ok. And trump is willing to say comeys lying under oaths. So who is lying . This case goes no place on that efrds. Because you have one persons word against another persons word. But you saw the memos. Well, yes. John dean points out that that may be evidence that jurors will convict on the word of one person against the other. The corroboration is a memo written by other witnesses. You usually like to see other corroborating evidence and im not seeing it so far. There could have been people in the room, Navy Stewards who im sure will be brought to testify. Well, another this might be the president s history of demanding loyalty oaths from his aides and employees. Thats going to come out in evidence as well. Which is something we have heard a lot about, about this president. Loyalty. It is important. It is the most important thing. I have known him for a dozen years. I know this as does anybody who has interacted with him. Comey says the president requested a pledge of little. The president today didnt leave any gray area. Here he is. There would be nothing wrong with it if i did say it but i did not say that. If he said those things under oath would you be willing to speak under oath to give your version 100 . I didnt say under oath. I hardly know the man. Im not going to say i want you to pledge aleaningance. Who would do that . Who would ask a man to pleej allegiance under oath . Think of it. It doesnt make sense. No, i didnt say that and i didnt say the other. Erin, careful, mr. President , this is reminiscent of doesnt starr compelling William Clinton to give a deposition. On cnn, ive been fullthroated robust unwavering in my support for this director. I believe of the seven that weve had i served under four he is a man of impeccable, impeccable credentials, honorable and decent. I think he ceded the moral high ground. When he admitted the leak. When he admitted the leak. I was disappointed and disheartened when he ceded the moral high grounlds. Leak is an unlawful disclosure of unclassified information. It belongs to the government and for director comey to give that to a sur gatd to leak to the New York Times hes given the narrative back to the white house. April, you know, youve now been to countless press conferences with this president and other president s, you hear james saying that he got the moral high ground because comey admitted to leaking. Was the president taking a stand today when he said 100 its all untrue. Was it convincing . He took a stand. What would be convincing more so is once he actually does do what he said he would do, under oath have a deposition. I was there when ken starr deposed William Jefferson clinton. That was a chilling day in the map room of the white house. The question is years later, will this happen . People want to hear the truth. Right now its he saidhe said. But right now james comey has credibility according to the american public. This president has thrown this issue in the atmosphere by tweeting its. And now we have to find out really whats going on, so its left up to the president for stand by what he says and the question is will he tell the truth. Mike, heres the thing. The president wants to have it both ways. Today he said, listen, jim comey tells the truth so much so that he vicinity indicated me. In the next breath he says comeys a liar. Here he is. We were very, very happy and frankly, james comey confirmed a lot i said and some of the things he said just werent true. So the president says comey vindicated him because he told the truth and then he says hes a liar. How can both be there true . James comey committed sins of omission and sins of commission. He has a messiah complex. What weve seen is this is a gentleman who wants too do partisan and political things from a nonpartisan and nonpolitical organization. He has no credibility left. Donald trump is 100 vindicated and theres really nothing left here but political theater. This meeting happened, he decided to make something up and write it down and not say anything about it and wait and one day hes going to share this madeup story . James comey has never been trump to begin with. He has constantly did things to undermine the president. All he had to do was remove the cloud from the president and that cloud was, sifr, youre innocent and he is innocent i will just say i want to bring dan in here but he did do something in late october which was very positive for this president. Whether that was his intent or not. I dont think dmib can deny that. Dan . Erin, you hit upon it. The trump explanation is absurd. Iflt cant be that james comey tell us the truth only when it helps are donald trump and when it doesnt hes obviously lying. To your point, look, we dont know what was said in that room but we can use our common sense. Comey wrote these things down in real time, talked to people in real time about them. Prosecutors will go back and talk with those witnesses. Comey has a decadeslong bipartisan recommendation for integrity and rectitude. We know for a fact that donald trump lies all the time. We know hes lying about these tapes and we will know that soon when the white House Counsel has to tell the house Intelligence Committee that there are no tapes. Were going to hit because. The president had something to say today. Is that a defense . Plus another blockbuster congressional hearing. Jeff sessions about to be are grilled over his interactions with the russians. More developing on that. How much trouble could he be in . And the president s attorney celebrating, handing out cigars. Will you be ready when the moment turns romantic .

President trump promising more information on tapes, tapes of his vrgs cans with the fired fbi director jim comey and whether we will know if there are tapes. Here he is today. Ill tell you about that maybe sometime in the very near future. Im not hinting at anything. Ill tell you over a short period of time. My panels back with me. Mike, why . Why ill tell you about it in a slow short period of time . This is not a nuanced area, right . There are either tapes or there are not tapes. Why isnt he answering the question . Erin, i dont work for the white house. They have a phenomenal com shop there. The president does speak for himself. I hope there are tapes because it whether further vindicate the president. Yesterdays testimony by james comey was an outlandish statement on a guy whos obviously so hellbent on bringing down this president that he has nothing left to lose. This president will further vindicate himself and move on to his agenda of making America Great which is what 63 Million People voted for him to do. Dan . Lets not count the millions who didnt vote for him to do it. It is so obvious,000 trump does not have tapes. He can warily organize his white house. Its hard to imagine in the early days hed installed a secret white house taping operation and he wont adds mitt it one of knows spy pens that you can get at hammer slemer or Something Like that . I think its more likely if he had a taping system it was Something Like that one of those small pens that you have in your pocket and he may be holding back. And i hope the tape are released. Youve obviously never represented people in criminal cases. Let me tell you something the they surprise their lawyers all the time. Unless you were in that room you have no idea whether the president is telling the truth or lying about that encounter. I think that james comey obviously has proven himself to be a liar time in and time out. I think that the president obviously has proven himself to be speaking for the American People and to be a straight shooter. You ever see the tape on youtube of lies president s have told in civil dmogs . You ever seen that . Because after about 45 minutes of demonstrable lies told by the president under oath. Have you seen it . Isnt that just liberal no. The question is guess we wont get the answer to that question. Youre talking if youre talking about Classic Media spin, it is not media spin. This president talked about himself from his brain to his thumbs to the keyboard to twitter about he was hoping there was a tape. Many people who ive talked to have said, you know, its not beyond the realm of possibility because of what has happened with him in the past with business dealings. And you guys are talking about this yeah. Microphone pen or whatever it is, get smart and the code of silence and the shoe phone thats for a lot of people who that was way back. But, anyway, heres the issue. In going way back, if there is a tape, this is very nixonian. It does not look president yam. It seems sinister, so as people are celebrating, you got to remember the base of this. I had a conversation with him about a year ago, year and a half ago. In it we were talking about how there were a lot of Chinese Companies in his building and whether he was wiretapped. You know what he said . He said i assume every conversation i have ever had was wiretapped because im in new york City Real Estate and people are out to get me. That was the president s then candidate trump told me. But james, you know, jim comey saying lordy, i hope theres tapes. Erin again, whoever it is whos lying is doing so in the most egregious and horrible way every. If jim comey does something to attack donald trump, the republicans are going to side with or the democrats are going to decide there. If he does the other way, the republicans will side for that. Im going to call balls and strikes here. There were two losers in the testimony yesterday. The first its hard to say this but im going to say this. The first was jim comey. No one thought he v could have been knocked often the high ground and he was knocked off the high ground. The second and my apologies to dan, the second is the Obama Administration and the politization of the doj. We knew this to be true but to hear it stated by the director that then attorney general Loretta Lynch said this is a matter, not an investigation, chfgs a clinton which was a Clinton Campaign talking point. Back to the issue of tapes, john, if there were tapes wouldnt we already know about it . Its not possible that he could have it and be hiding it and it never showed up. Wed already know, wouldnt we . The easy answer is go to the secret service. They sweep the white house on a often many times a day to make sure theres no certificate up tissuous taping going on. The telephone is the one that obama has. It has the capability of recording. All you have to do is hit a switch and the voicemail becomes a recording system. Yes, go ahead, april. On the secret service issue, i did a secret service about stapg for security or for any purposes and some persons in the secret service says theres nothing in there they use to tap
