Comey told senators Thursday morning, " Lordy, I hope there are tapes, " in referring to his meetings with President Trump
WASHINGTON — Twitter users have latched on to former FBI Director James Comey’s use of « lordy » during his highly anticipated Capitol Hill testimony about his interactions with President Trump.
Several days after Mr. Trump fired Comey in May, the president tweeted that Comey « better hope that there are no ‘tapes’ of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press! »
Comey told senators Thursday morning, « Lordy, I hope there are tapes, » in referring to his meetings with Mr. Trump.
The term quickly became a trending topic on Twitter. Former New York City U. S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who was also fired by Mr. Trump, echoed Comey’s statemen.
« Captain America » actor Chris Evans quickly weighed in, saying he wanted Comey’s phase on a T-shirt.
For those unaccustomed to hearing the word, dictionary maker Merriam-Webster tweeted a definition and joked Comey still had time use old-fashioned terms like « gadzooks » or « gramercy. »
