Namely, White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Trump wasn't referring to wiretapping when he tweeted about wiretapping.

And CNN doesn’t mean “understand” when they pretend not to understand.

CNN states this, and I could not give a crap. Guaranteed it is another hit piece by the propaganda wing of the champagne socialist party.

This whole wiretapping affair, regardless of how we look at it, is not part of winning and does not MAGA.

Did the NYT mean wiretapping when they reported wiretapping?

The MSM is so f’ing stupid. Does it really matter if it was wiretapping or some other method of surveillance? Why don’t they focus on the fact that somebody, at the direction of Obama &/or his administration was spying on Trump & his people??

The media again overplaying their hand in trying to “gotcha” Trump, and they make themselves look petty & stupid.

Trump didn't mean wiretapping when he tweeted about wiretapping ...

Some of us knew this as soon as we read his Twitter message.

He put "wiretapping" in quotes for a reason.

What a coincidence. The NYT didn’t mean wiretap either when they reported wiretap.

All I have to say is, they better release what they have, and have it iron clad the truth.

My first question to these media boobs is, the Obama AG obtained a FISA order for wire tapping/surveillance. So, the question is why did they?

They did so for their own political reasons.

That was the only reason for any attempt at a FISA warrant.

A story by the National Enquirer having JFK alive today in a nursing home is more believable than this crap.

I'll take “spying” too.
What ever.
Their definition of “reporting” is probably different from my definition of “reporting” too.
Disingenuous word parsing partisan bastards.
