which then brings up the question of "is this attempted intimidation?"
haha is that really a question? Of course it's attempted intimidation, but Jim Comey knew full well that there was no fear of being intimidated...hence the "Lordy" chronicles.

No one said it was, anyway. It was an attempt at it though.
Police and prosecutors do this legally all the time.
And COmey was truthful because he thought there might be evidence if he lied.

Difference:
The police and prosecutors are the ones conducting the (an) investigation. Trump isn't, he's party to the investigation; therefore, intimidation, regardless if he's president.

Trump said Comey was untruthful.
If Comey did tell the truth, tapes would prove Trump is a liar; if Comey lied, tapes would prove Trump correct, and if that were the case you damn well believe Trump would have those tapes first thing to show Comey lied.

COmeys memos are also in question as possible fabrications too since there was no one there to hear what was actually said. Ive done this myself to previous bosses after being fired.

Has Trump called what Comey said under oath "perjury" yet? Of course not. He doesn't dare... because for all he knows, Comey really did record the conversations. Another Trump gambit blows up in his face.

So the head of the FBI can essentially bug the white house for the potus's conversation with him legally?
If legal, why doesn't he release the recording?
