The documents released Thursday, which were obtained by the media, match what Comey has said publicly and in previous testimony, including that Trump demanded a loyalty pledge and asked him to end an investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

“The guy has serious judgment issues,” Trump said of Flynn, according to the memos.

At a Feb. 8 meeting, Trump denied the salacious rumors involving Russian prostitutes in a Moscow hotel room, though Comey wrote: “the President says ‘the hookers thing’ is nonsense, but that Putin had told him ‘we have some of the most beautiful hookers in the world.’ (He did not say when Putin told him this).”
