WASHINGTON ― Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, on Sunday demanded that if President Donald Trump continues to suggest that he has recordings of his conversations with fired FBI director James Comey, he should either “voluntarily turn them over” or receive a subpoena.

“This is an issue that the president should have cleared up in his press conference,” Collins said on CNN’s State of the Union. “He should give a straight yes or no to the question of whether or not the tapes exist, and he should voluntarily turn them over not only to the Senate Intelligence Committee, but to the special counsel.”

Trump and White House officials have repeatedly refused to confirm or deny whether the tapes exist.

“I’ll tell you about that in the very near future,” Trump said on Friday during a press conference in the White House Rose Garden.

A very subtle and subliminal if tangential element of this curious "tapes" tweet, is that it could
imply that taping has been going on a long time. Were any of Trump's offices, hotels, residences
wired? Was mentioning "tapes" an attempt to warn people there exists "tapes" of their conversations?
It almost begs the question is there evidence of other interactions? 'Your secrets have all
been recorded, can we expect loyalty?'

1. What is she waiting for? She has a say in making him fork the over.

2. If he did they have been long since destroyed.

Could anyone at this point possibly be naive enough to think that those people play under any set of rules but their own?

3. The only tapes Trump has ..

.. are the ones holding together the sleeves of his straitjacket.

4. The way he dangles the possibility of tapes

is just they type of behavior we should expect from a narcissist. It is cruel teasing. Narcissists excel at that behavior. It won't work this time.

5. He is very naive if he thinks Comey

would have perjured himself. If the tapes ever existed, they support Comey's testimony and will therefore never see the light of day.

6. And if he doesn't... he needs to be honest.

Enough with your stupid games, Trump. Grow the fuck up.
