Donald Trump contredit Mike Pence au sujet de Comey

Alors que Mike Pence affirmait que le Président avait congédié James Comey selon les recommandations du Département de la justice, Donald Trump a affirmé il y a peu qu'il avait déjà décidé seul de passer à l'action. Une fois de plus il est très difficile d'obtenir une seule version de la part de la Maison-Blanche.

 “Let me be very clear that the president’s decision to accept the recommendation of the deputy attorney general and the attorney general to remove Director Comey as the head of the FBI was based solely and exclusively on his commitment to the best interests of the American people and to ensuring that the FBI has the trust and confidence of the people this nation,” Pence told reporters Wednesday.

 But Trump said in an interview with NBC on Thursday that he’d planned to fire Comey no matter what Rosenstein told him. “I was gonna fire regardless of recommendation,” Trump told Lester Holt. “Regardless of recommendation I was going to fire Comey.”
