President Trump: The great Jim Jordan, how good is Jim? Where’s Jim? Where is Jim? I love — come here Jim. Don’t ever wrestle him even if you’re bigger than him, don’t wrestle him. You know people don’t know this about Jim, he was one of the best wrestlers ever in college wrestling and when you see the way he fights — every time I watch him, I say to my wife, look at that guy that is tough. He lost one match in three years of college, what happened in the fourth year by the way? 
He then thanks Jim Jordan.

According to the Washington Examiner President Trump might be referencing an article that was posted @ Real Clear Investigations that states, “In fact, a technical glitch prevented FBI technicians from accurately comparing the new emails with the old emails. Only 3,077 of the 694,000 emails were directly reviewed for classified or incriminating information. Three FBI officials completed that work in a single 12-hour spurt the day before Comey again cleared Clinton of criminal charges.”
