    Nearly 4-in-10 voters believe Donald Trump’s presidential campaign was spied on during the 2016 election, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll.


    Thirty-eight percent of respondents said they believe the Trump campaign was spied on, compared to 28 percent who said they don’t believe the president’s campaign was spied on. More than a third, 35 percent, said they don’t know or have no opinion about it.

    =============================================

    I understand the 35% that say "they don't know or have no opinion", because about that percent simply does not stay informed on a regular basis. But, the 28% of those who don't believe it happened are either brainwashed beyond repair, living in total denial, or simply answering the poll in their partisan way, because they don't care.

    The evidence is not even at question anymore. The DoJ/FBI received FISA Warrants to spy on the Trump team. It happened. There is documentation thanks to FOIA releases. It surveillance was ongoing, involved multiple members of Trump's team and hundreds of people that got caught up contacting those with warrants on them like Carter Page.

    It will be nice when this finally is forced to be reported on by the Mainstream Media to see most of the 35% come around too.

    I have a feeling soon that everyone will know that Trump was spied on.

    Counterintellegence and search warrant are incompatible concepts. This was spying from the onset as all counterintellegence operations are. Worse still 'counterintellegence operations' involve, well, counterintelligence; lying, bribing, manufacturing evidence, threatening, coercion etc.... and we (our government) did this to a political adversary.

    Heads need to roll.

    So it doesn’t matter that it was well justified?

    Wrong Answer.

    Read the OP again and take notice of those that have not decided. Over the next several weeks with the release of the Mueller Report, the Giuliani Response, AG Barr's admission that there was spying, and the Horowitz FISA investigation report in May, the populace will understand (unless they are a lock step lefty) that the Federal Government under Barack Obama spied on the Trump team.

    People are no longer trusting CNN, MSNBC, and tuning out. They are going to get their information without the hardcore Leftist filter and they will learn. Enjoy the Democratic Party demise by a thousand cuts as your lackies attempt to "investigate" Trump's finances.

    You seem to miss the point. It was not only unjustified, but it was approved with the use of opposition research that should have never found its way in front of a FISA Judge. But, we all know you do not care about justice, it's all about ideology to you anymore.

    Beyong the FISA abuses, which are an enormous breach in the first place, comes the massive amounts of unmaskings conducted at a record pace by the Obama Administration. They were spying their asses off and now the populace will know what those that have read the FOIA releases know and it doesn't go well for Democrats. Facts will bury the Democrats. Your empty rhetoric and that of CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, WaPo, ABC, NBC, and CBS has been exposed.

    They told the court the dossier was oppo research, they still approved it....multiple times.
    Your image is a lie. Carter page did not work for trump when they got the warrant. He wasn’t trump staff. Unless you’re saying he was secretly working for the campaign...

    You keep on with being on the wrong side of history. The texts by the FBI/DoJ, the unmaskings, the Lisa Page testimony, the James Comey leaks, the James Baker interviews, the Peter Strzok testimony, the use of un-verified opposition research on a FISA Warrant all tell the story and America will no longer listen to people like you and CNN that forward the lies and propaganda of the Democratic Party and Obama Administration. It's just a short matter of time.

    • John Carlin – Assistant Attorney General – Head of DOJ’s National Security Division - Resigned - FISA Abuses

    • James Comey – FBI Director - Fired
    • Peter Strzok – Deputy Assistant Director of FBI’s - Demoted / Fired
    • Lisa Page – FBI/DOJ Lawyer - Demoted - Resigned
    • James Baker – FBI General Counsel - Demoted - Reassigned
    • James Rybicki – Chief of Staff to FBI Director - Demoted - Resigned
    • Andrew McCabe – Deputy FBI Director - Fired - Charges Recommended
    • Josh Campbell – Special Assistant to James Comey - Resigned
    • Michael Kortan – FBI Asst. Director Public Affairs - Resigned
    • Bill Priestap – Assistant Director – Head of FBI Counterintelligence - Resigned - *Is likely cooperating against the DoJ/FBI in investigations

    Watch List

    • Rod Rosenstein (DOJ) - Deputy Attorney General
    • David Bowditch (FBI) – expected to replace Andrew McCabe as Deputy FBI Director
    • Trisha Anderson (DOJ) – Adviser in the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel
    • Greg Brower (FBI) – Assistant Director for the Office of Congressional Affairs.
    • Sally Moyer (FBI) – Attorney
    • Dana Boente (DOJ/FBI) – Acting Head of DOJ’s National Security Division
    • Edward O’Callaghan (DOJ) – Acting Assistant Attorney General and Acting Head of DOJ’s National Security Division
    NOTE: All are welcome to reuse the above list which I created. Share it to your friends, families, or Leftists that refuse to accept reality.

    Virtually everyone now knows that the MSM lies.

    AOC agrees with Trump: MSM = FAKE NEWS.

    The ones who "stay informed" know that this is nonsense, and that Trump's bellow was false from the very beginning.

    But Trump and the noise machine the blows with him have succeeded in casting doubt on the established facts.

    Which is one of Trump's favorite games. Tell a ridiculous made up lie, and then just keep repeating it (even have your Attorney General repeat it before admitting he has no evidence).

    Most of this was part of Trump's attempts to fire his way through any investigtion.

    Not a single person on that list is a criminal in any way. But they were all victims of Trump's frequent purges.

    I don't think Page ever stopped working for the Trump campaign.

    And I am very curious why the Trump crowd is so obsessed with protecting Page.

    lying to the court to get a warrant is way beyond justified its called fraud on the court
    and yes not providing pertinent information like the Dossier was opposition research paid for by the Clinton campaign and very little if any was verified is a lie by omission a fraud on the court

    Counterintellegence run on an opposition candidate in a "democracy" is antithetical to the entire concept of "We The People." Before we can have a discussion we need to define terms, right? Counterintellegence is force, it is physical conflict; it is not the spirited debate on ideals. It is by definition the silencing one's enemies by any means.

    Cheers

    There was no "court" of any sort you or I would recognize as legitimate that was told anything. It was a Star Chamber, a tool of dictators and monarchs.
