Trump has complained for months that Comey leaked classified info — but are his claims credible?


U.S. President Trump has claimed for months that fired FBI director James Comey leaked classified information when he passed a memo of a conversation with Trump to a friend who then spoke to the New York Times about its contents. He leaked CLASSIFIED information, for which he should be prosecuted.”- Trump, in a tweet, April 13Comey “said he gave it (his memo) to a friend and he gave it to a friend to leak classified information. The Justice Department inspector general is conducting an investigation into the classification of the Comey memos, the Wall Street Journal reported. But Trump cannot say that the memo regarding the Feb. 14 meeting — the one memo Comey specifically hoped would reach the news media — contained classified information. The president stretches this further by accusing Comey of committing a crime by releasing an unclassified memo.
