Trump claims Obama had his 'wires tapped'

The Trump admin has found out the Obama had Trump Towers WIRETAPPED around election time. The MSM made a big deal out of the non news the Sessions talked to some Russians. Now how much coverage will they give this news? What Fed judge did they go to for permission to wire tap, and what reason did they give to do so. Or did they just commit a criminal act, and by pass judges.

 

Is a credible link too much to ask?

Thanks Chris.

From that link: Mr Trump did not offer any evidence to support his claims, while Mr Obama has not responded.

I think a change in the thread's title is in order. The article itself is titled "Trump claims Obama had his 'wires tapped' ", which seems better.

 

Were you after an FBI press release?

 

Look folks, nothing to see here, no Pence private email use, no Sessions lies to congress, no ongoing concerns about Russia connections, no botched immigration ban, no business conflicts of interest...

BUT OBAAAMAAA......

 

A bit of evidence, like the report of a specialist, would have been fine... It's not like Trump can't afford these services, right?

 

Congress should demand a special investigator.

 

OP: When did you make up this story. Did Faux News or Alex Jones make it up?

 

Right now it's an allegation. Without evidence all this amounts to is more baseless accusations.

 

He said a credible link.

 

The very definition of FAKE NEWS, right here. Trump just loves manipulating his little cult of brain dead followers, doesn't he?

 

Well, the link is as credible and objective as can be, from a journalistic POV - it correctly report a claim Trump made, presents the evidences about it (in this case, Trump's tweets) then presents a short resume of Mccarthyism, which subject was present in those tweets.

So far, so good.

 

I came across this: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...rolling-leftist-groups.html?intcmp=latestnews One would assume Obama would have curry much favor within the DOJ by providing substancial, unregulated "discretionary" funds. Sessions of course would be an integral part of this inquiry. This rabbit hole runs deep, and persons brave enough to explore it's depths, seem to do so at their own peril. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/09/06/omb-obama-would-veto-gop-anti-slush-fund-bill.html

 

I think this is what trump is talking about.

https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/01/us/politics/fbi-russia-election-donald-trump.html

Specifically -

"F.B.I. officials spent weeks examining computer data showing an odd stream of activity to a Trump Organization server and Alfa Bank. Computer logs obtained by The New York Times show that two servers at Alfa Bank sent more than 2,700 “look-up” messages — a first step for one system’s computers to talk to another — to a Trump-connected server beginning in the spring. But the F.B.I. ultimately concluded that there could be an innocuous explanation, like a marketing email or spam, for the computer contacts."

 

Looks like Barry and Hillary will be sharing adjacent cells.

 

Evidence of Trump's senility and paranoia?

 

If there is any firm evidence as DJT implies, he should go for the jugular and cut the head off the snake. As simple as that. I guess some people who dutifully served Obama switched the sides. Interesting times. Leaks go both ways now.

Trump accuses Obama of wiretapping Trump Tower

http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/322337-trump-accuses-obama-of-wiretapping-trump-tower

President Trump on Saturday claimed President Obama had his “wired tapped” in Trump Tower before Election Day, tweeting the accusation without offering evidence.

“Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!” he wrote.

“Is it legal for a sitting President to be "wire tapping" a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!” he added in subsequent tweets. “I'd bet a good lawyer could make a great case out of the fact that President Obama was tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!”

How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!

It was not immediately clear whether Trump had any proof or was referencing a report. Breitbart News on Friday reported on conservative radio host Mark Levin’s claim that Obama executed a “silent coup” of Trump via “police state” tactics. White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon was the executive chair of Breitbart before joining Trump’s team.

 

Would it really surprise anyone?

 

The stores about it were all over the place back at the end of October. Alfa Bank? The Feds were poking around in Trumps system. I think maybe Trump didnt know they were doing it, and somebody just explaind to him like he was 5 what it ment.

 

That senile, paranoid man is POTUS and has the power to jail the ex-president for sedition.

Barry down the drain with Hillary, Pelosi, Schumer, et al.

 

Very serious charges, it wouldn't surprise me if they are true. Hell the government is tapping all of us all the time anyway, has been for years. Trump does have a flair for sensationalism so I'll wait for more information.

 

Any wiretap leaves evidence, this is just another BS tweet from Trump that his worshippers jump on and try to make truth. Likely another way to distract from actual stuff he is afraid of and the TrumpHumpers run with it.

 

Trump made the accusation... Let's see his proof.

 

It's still amusing to watch people underestimate him. Even after he dismantled the Republican, Democratic, and Clinton machines.
