List everything HRC did wrong and then come up with a weak excuse to get her off.
He should have just resigned instead.

Thread title is silly. Trump "threatened" Comey with the truth. "If you don't tell the truth, I'll show the world tape evidence, if there's any."
The thread title is "Trump threatens Comey"
Trump said "Comey better hope there are no tapes...."
I believe he is saying that he can pin Comey as a leaker if info comes out in the media as the conversations will have been taped and Trump can prove it went to the press from Comey. I think... but it is threatening in its manner. "he better hope".

James Comey better hope that there are no "tapes" of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press!

Forget it - for the life of me I can't figure out how to embed things in DCUM. I guess I am like Trump not knowing how to use scare quotes in that way.

I don't think Nixon threatened American citizens. Trump makes Nixon look like an angel.
Time for Republicans to stand up for the country. Silence = complicity

Nixon also never sold out our country to a hostile foreign power. Although Nixon was despicable in many ways, he would NEVER betray his country to our enemies. Trump on the other hand doesn't care as long as HE WINS.
Many parts of this are disturbing, but for me the most dangerous part is -- what has Trump told/promised Russia?
Do you not think if there was evidence of that we would know it? It would have been revealed long ago. Even the Democrats in Congress have said there is no evidence of that.
This is just your wishful thinking. Were you concerned when Obama said to tell Putin that he would be more flexible after the election? We do have evidence of that.
Our President right now, as demonstrated by this morning's tweetstorm, is coming completely unhinged. He is paranoid, delusional, and saying anything to try to get out the mess he's found himself in.
Two days ago he met with Lavrov, the longtime Russian foreign minister, and, SURPRISE! - Kislyak, the ambassador who apparently is the expert Russian spymaster.
In the oval office.
Alone.
Trump, besides the fact he's in completely over his head, is psychologically very vulnerable to flattery & sympathy. Did you see the pictures the RUSSIAN news service (not ours, because they weren't allowed in) released of the 3 of them yucking it up? These are high government officials of the country that tried to influence our election, just a few months ago. They attacked the bedrock of our democracy - yes, THEY ATTACKED US - and Trump is having a good ole time. And then last night he puts on twitter this "Let's make peace"
