Trump says there was an attempted 'coup' on his administration: 'It's far bigger than Watergate'
Washington President Donald Trump called 2016 texts between former FBI officials evidence of an attempted"coup" after a news report showed they were discussing people inside the Trump administration who they could"develop for potential relationships."
Trump was responding to a Fox News report about the texts exchanged between former FBI lawyer Lisa Page and former FBI agent Peter Strzok. The President immediately claimed the text messages were evidence of a plot against him, but the Fox News report notes that it"was not clear from the messages whether Strzok and Page merely sought to build bridges with the incoming administration, or wanted to engineer the briefings to investigate Trump and his associates.
