Mr Trump tweeted: "Despite so many false statements and lies, total and complete vindication". "I can definitely say the President is not a liar", White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters Thursday.
Comey told the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday that Trump's response wasn't accurate.
Yesterday, Fox & Friends attempted to justify Trump demanding loyalty from Comey.
"What struck me is that it is completely unacceptable for the president to ask the FBI director to be personally loyal to him and to ask the FBI director to drop it with regards to an ongoing investigation into his former national security adviser", said Sen. Comey told senators he believed Trump fired him because of the Russian Federation investigation.
The only way to find out whether recordings exist may be through a request by Robert Mueller, the special counsel looking into the matter.
Comey described how he had documented his conversations with Trump, in which he said the president asked for his "loyalty" and for him to end the inquiry into Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who resigned in February over discrepancies in his explanations for contacts with Russia's ambassador. The president's new at this.
Former FBI Director James Comey has laid bare months of White House distrust in highly anticipated testimony before Congress.
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley said Comey's testimony "left many questions unanswered" and Grassley said it "even raised some new questions" about how Comey handled "politically-charged investigations".

"No, no. Next question", the president said.
Kasowitz also said Comey lied about his meetings with Trump in which the President allegedly asked for loyalty multiple times.
Many Democrats still blame Comey for Clinton's loss, leading Trump to apparently believe they would applaud him for firing Comey.
He was referencing Comey's acknowledgment during his testimony that following a meeting with Trump, he had given a written memo to a friend and asked him to pass it along to a reporter. "He never said it in form and he never said it in substance". He also said that any other explanations that have come from the White House were "lies, plain and simple", as Jessica reports.
"I don't think it's for me to say whether the conversation I had with the president was an effort to obstruct", Comey testified.
In his public testimony, Comey did not disclose any links between Trump advisers and alleged Russian attempts to meddle in the 2016 USA presidential election, an issue that has distracted from White House policy goals such as overhauling the US healthcare system and cutting taxes.
Comey took down his versions of the conversations in memos he said he wrote immediately afterward.
"My judgment was I need to get that out into the public square", he said.
