Comey swipes at Trump: 'Lordy, this time there will be a tape'

Former FBI Director James Comey, preparing for the rollout of his new tell-all book, took a swipe at President Donald Trump on Tuesday.

Tweeting an image of himself seated while recording the audio version of the book, Comey poked fun at Trump’s former claim that conversations between the two men may have been recorded.

“Lordy, this time there will be a tape,” Comey wrote. “Audio book almost finished.”

After firing Comey last May, Trump tweeted that Comey “better hope that there are no ‘tapes’ of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press!”

The tweet sparked intense debate across the political spectrum, and Congress eventually demanded that any recordings be turned over.

"I’ve seen the tweet about tapes. Lordy, I hope there are tapes," Comey said when asked about the president’s warning during the course of a June Senate Intelligence Committee hearing.
