Trump has been coy about whether any recordings exist of his private conversations with Comey, who was sacked by the president in May. "That was an excuse by the Democrats, who lost an election they shouldn't have lost", he said.

Donald Trump appears to be "100 percent" ready to commit a federal crime: The president said Friday that he is willing to say, under oath, that James Comey gave false testimony to the Senate. No, I didn't say that and I didn't say the other.

As a result of that episode, a special counsel was appointed to lead an independent investigation into the Trump campaign's potential ties to the Kremlin.

Trump has scheduled a joint news conference for Friday afternoon with visiting Romanian President Klaus Iohannis.

"I hardly know the man [Mr Comey]", he said. Mr Trump wrote in an early morning tweet on Friday, the day after the Senate hearing. "He [Comey]'s a leaker but we want to get back to running our great country".

Trump first alluded to the so-called "tapes" in a May 12 tweet, following Comey's claim of written memos on his personal meetings with the president. He also told reporters that he will talk about the tapes he allegedly has of him and Comey "sometime in the very near future".

"Now, is it possible under some unusual scenario that since Jim Comey has left an investigation has started? I'll tell you over a very short period of time", he said - suggesting he's maybe going to give an exclusive interview to Fox News Channel on the subject.

Comey delivered congressional testimony on Thursday that Trump asked the FBI chief to end an investigation into a top aide and demanded a pledge of loyalty - claims disputed by Trump.

Mr Trump added he would be happy to testify under oath in front of special prosecutor Robert Mueller.

Trump declined to say whether recordings of his conversations with Comey exist, saying he would have more to say on the matter soon.

Reed says "there's a real question of the propriety" of Sessions' involvement in Comey's dismissal, since Sessions had recused himself from the federal probe into contacts between Russian Federation and the Trump campaign.

President Trump did not ask Comey to drop the FBI Investigation into Russian involvement in the 2016 election, nor did any member of his administration. "Who would ask a man to pledge allegiance under oath?"

The U.S. Secret Service says it has no recordings of any conversations in President Trump's White House.

Mr Comey told the Senate panel he took meticulous notes of each meeting or conversation he had with Mr Trump because "I was honestly concerned that he might lie about the nature of our meeting, and so I thought it really important to document".
