trump said that Comey was asking him at the dinner if he would be staying on. This too is a

lie. Comey's tenure was for 10 years and has only served 4 of them if I recall correctly. That means he has 6 more years. Why would he be asking to stay on?

Trump had been pretty vocal about Comey during the campaign, both positive and negative.

This dinner apparently happened in January, and it would make sense that Comey would express his desire to stay in the job at that time.
