Without disclosing what he and Trump talked about, Comey said that, after his last meeting with Trump, he felt like 'something big is about to happen'. Nobody asked him what that meant, which seems really strange in itself. Could this mean what we hope it means? Was Trump hinting to Comey that he was aware of the pedophile rings?

In his testimony before The Senate, Comey is asked the reasons for documenting his meetings with Trump.
his January 6th meeting in Trump Tower ;
COMEY: " I was honestly concerned he might lie about the nature of our meeting so I thought it important to document."
January 27th dinner, where he said "The president began by asking me whether I wanted to stay on as FBI director.”
COMEY: " he's (Trump's) looking to get something in exchange for granting my request to stay in the job.
Now for the February 14th meeting: "Something big is about to happen"
SENATOR WARNER: February 14th, seems strange, you were in a meeting, and your direct superior the attorney general was in that meeting as well, yet the president asked everyone to leave, including the attorney general to leave, before he brought up the matter of general Flynn. What was your impression of that type of action? Have you ever seen anything like that before?
COMEY: No. My impression was something big is about to happen. I need to remember every single word that is spoken, and again, I could be wrong, I'm 56 years old, I've been, seen a few things, my sense was the attorney general knew he shouldn't be leaving which was why he was leaving and I don't know Kushner well but I think he picked up on the same thing so I knew something was about to happen that I needed to pay very close attention to.
