Ether he knew or it is one hell of a lucky guess in ether case it is a cause for concern on one hand if it was just a political hit job then the corruption is quite deep

If it was a legitimate search then i will let the implications speak for themselves

Wait so Obama the president who had world leaders wire tapped also wire tapped the opponent of his good friend Hillary whom he wanted to succeed him? Shocker.

Check the news



The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday accused U.S. spy agencies of abusing their surveillance powers by gathering and sharing information about President Trump and his transition team, an unproven charge that was quickly embraced by the White House but threatened to derail the committee’s investigation of possible Trump campaign ties to Russia.

Literally the first sentence. I really hope you're not old enough to vote.

In an interview the president said he was using the term wiretapping as a general statement for surveillance, not just phone monitoring. While they are still looking into it, it would make sense if he was being monitored. Obama's administration gave permission to NSA to tap Angela Merkel in 2010. Those intelligence departments (CIA, DIA, FBI, NSA) have conducted surveillance on many people including celebrities like John Lennon over the years. It would not be a big leap to think Obama would want to monitor his political adversary. When you look at leaked information from whistle-blowers you learn to "appreciate" how little privacy the average person has.

Honestly, even if they do not find evidence that does not mean it didn't happen. If I was the incumbent president, and conducting surveillance on the succeeding president, I would destroy any of that information before they took office knowing that they will have full access to all branches of intelligence.

No, he wasn't.

Also, nothing in the link you provided says he was wiretapped. Maybe you should reread your source.

So do say how would they gain any info without wiretapping or getting into his accounts any agency worth their salt would do it if not then they are very incompetent at their job for failing to do so its quite obvious something along those lines happened

I did vote and i didnt vote for nether side but believe what you want

Believe what I want? You mean the facts that are stated within the first sentence of the article you provided?

Yeah, I think I will believe what I want.

Trump has claimed that Obama illegally wiretapped him. What you are describing is legal wiretapping. It really doesn't matter if he did or not, because it would have been well within the legality of the law, in that situation, regardless.

Legality is in question because the president cannot order a wiretap without a warrant from Department of Justice seeking surveillance for a person under federal investigation. A federal judge would only have approved a warrant to wiretap Trump's phones if he or she had found probable cause that Trump had committed a federal crime or was a foreign agent. So the claim is that the proper channels were not followed by the white house; thus illegal. Time will tell.

I know?

What I'm saying is that the claim that Obama illegally wiretapped trump is absurd. We know that the DoJ can and has initiated surveillance on suspected high-ranking officials, so why would anyone, especially Obama illegally set up surveillance like this?

He's the president and you're not. As president, he's the smartest and most honest person in America. It's impossible for him to be wrong because he has so much access to intelligence.
