WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 22: U.S. President Donald Trump (C) shakes hands with James Comey, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), during an Inaugural Law Enforcement Officers and First Responders Reception in the Blue Room of the White House on January 22, 2017 in Washington, DC. Trump today mocked protesters who gathered for large demonstrations across the U.S. and the world on Saturday to signal discontent with his leadership, but later offered a more conciliatory tone, saying he recognized such marches as a "hallmark of our democracy."

Following his announcement via Twitter on Thursday that Trump did not tape his conversations with former FBI Director James Comey, he revealed why he wanted Comey to think he had.

Trump gave his explanation during an interview with Fox News, and said he wanted to keep Comey honest.

Check it out (via Free Beacon):

“When he found out that I, you know, that there may be tapes out there, whether it’s governmental tapes or anything else, and who knows, I think his story may have changed,” Trump said. “I mean, you’ll have to take a look at that.”

“My story didn’t change, my story was always a straight story,” Trump added. “My story was always the truth, but you’ll have to determine for yourself whether or not his story changed.”

He continued:

Trump suggested that some “investigative reporting” would be needed to determine if Comey had indeed changed his story based off of Trump’s initial claims on their conversations.

Fox host Ainsley Earhardt praised it as a “smart way” to make sure Comey stayed honest in the hearing.

“It wasn’t very stupid, I can tell you that,” Trump said.
