Comey testified under oath that, following a conversation with Trump, he wrote a memo documenting what was said. Last month, he provided that memo to a friend and asked that it be shared with the New York Times.
Trump and his lawyer plan to file a complaint against Comey for that testimony.
 According to Stephen Kohn, partner at a law firm focused on whistleblower protection,“initiating an investigation because you don’t like somebody’s testimony could be considered obstruction. And in the whistleblower context, it’s both evidence of retaliation and, under some laws, could be an adverse retaliatory act itself.” That’s problematic for Trump.
