...Trump told House Republicans on Friday that the July 25 call was "perfect" and that he did nothing wrong, but that he had been reluctant to make the call, Axios reported, citing three sources who were on Friday's call.
"Not a lot of people know this but, I didn't even want to make the call," Trump reportedly said, according to one source who recalled the comments. "The only reason I made the call was because Rick asked me to. Something about an LNG [liquified natural gas] plant."
Another source on the call told Axios that Trump warned that "more of this will be coming out in the next few days."
The news comes shortly after reports emerged that Perry was set to announce his resignation by the end of November.

Day 1. It never happened.
Day 2. Maybe it happened.
Day 3. It wasn't me.
Day 4. Yes, it was me but it wasn't wrong.
Day 5. I'd do it again, and ask China too.
Day 6. Rick Perry made me do it.
