Physical or literal it is still “tapping” (spying). The media does this sh*t all the time with words to make conservatives look stupid. Libtards eat it up. This is their Alinsky tactic at work. They attach out of context or fragmented quote and push it to a main headline in a news cycle with a heavily edited video which in turn shapes narrative.

The “journalists” at the WSJ are not RINOs. They are Democrats.

LOL, insult to injury...

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving group either.

You’re right on target.

These days, with phones in large buildings being VOIP (i.e., digital), wire tapping and digital surveillance are the same thing.

The old days of wired analog phones and alligator clipped taps, or even magnetic pickups are long gone.

Let’s also bash President Trump for saying he taped a TV show, or dialed a number.

My wife uses verbal commands with her smart phone “to Dial” her friends and family members!

I use my mouse to text and “dial” phone #’s everyday.

Admitting Obama did not personally connect the circuit wires by hand to tap into Trump’s rotary phone is considered by the fifth-column media to be backtracking.

Because they’re unhinged and will attack Trump over absolutely anything. If it were Obama the media would be falling over themselves to “clarify” the POTUS comments. They’d say,”Obama, using the word ‘wiretap’ to refer to general surveillance, is right to be concerned this is being done in our Republic!!”. ...but no, its Trump, so it HAS to be literal.

Then why didn’t he say Lynch in the tweet? And why did Spicer recuse Obama today?

I believe they were conducting “surveillance” on the Russian embassy, and Kelly’s conversations with the ambassador got swept in. This I believe is quite legal. The leak itself was manifestly illegal.
