Trump is referring to a call in which Russian pranksters claimed to have naked photos of Trump. Schiff told the callers they should give the photos to the FBI, and that he would be contacting the FBI about the call.
"I’ll be in touch with the FBI about this. And we’ll make arrangements with your staff. I think it probably would be best to provide these materials both to our committee and to the FBI." —Adam Schiff, on the recorded call Trump is referring to. rollcall.com/news/politics/…
Again, this isn't in dispute. Schiff is on tape doing exactly what Trump said he didn't do. He was offered naked photos of Trump, and his immediate response was to inform the FBI and pass the materials along to them.
Oh, and when Schiff refers to "our committee"? He's referring to the House Intelligence Committee. Which he sits on, and which, at the time, was controlled by the Republican Party.
So Schiff, offered naked photos of Donald Trump by Russians, told them to give those photos to the FBI and to the Republican leadership of the House Intelligence Committee. And Trump is trying to make this into a scandal.
(PS: Not to be a jerk, but "Ew, gross, Trump naked, how disgusting!" comments aren't really something I find appealing.)
