A second consecutive day of bombshell stories sent the Trump administration scrambling after the New York Times reported Tuesday that President Trump implored FBI Director James Comey to drop the bureau’s investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s ties to Russia at a February meeting.

The White House issued a response minutes after the story posted to the Times website, denying the president ever made such a request.

According to the Times report, which has since been confirmed by multiple news outlets, Trump broached the subject of the investigation into Flynn’s ties with Russia, asked Comey to “let this go.”

From the Times:

“I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go,” Mr. Trump told Mr. Comey, according to the memo. “He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.”

This is getting ridiculous. Either there are those in the Whitehouse trying to bring him down at great risk to their own career or else he needs to go. We have to see the tax returns. We have to know if there are tapes and if so listen to them. If this memo from Comey is not true then it must be proven, I don't think anyone is going to take Trump's word over Comey's.
