President Trump has slammed Barack Obama and his lawless administration for spying on his presidential campaign, claiming that the surveillance abuse committed by Obama, John Brennan and James Clapper may be considered treason,, according to audio tapes obtained by the Daily Mail.
According to President Trump, Barack Obama was fully aware his appointed CIA chief John Brennan and director of national intelligence (DNI) James Clapper were conducting surveillance on citizens, specifically members of his campaign.
Personally, I think he knew. Yeah. Just remember what they did.
Let me put it this way: if the shoe were on the other foot, and the same thing happened to him, it would be treason and theyd be locked up for 100 years, said President Trump.

Let er Rip President Trump!
President Trump is right...
No, I think Trump is wrong.
Treason involves an external enemy. I think sedition.. which is conspiring or encouraging overthrow of the government is probably a more accurate charge. But, he’s right in that it should be considered as very serious.
Newspunch?
Never heard of them
I wasn’t a crime, as log as, Hitlery won.
It is not only lawful
but also, it is justified !!
It's time for lawful justice to prevail !
Dunno about treason, but it’s certainly criminal.
Hussein’s abuses of Presidential power made Nixon look like a Bot Scout.
Treason is the wrong crime. No enemy action.
But using the government resources to spy on political opponents IS a serious crime.
Trump needs to find proof on this.....he has been talking about this since March 2017.
Suburban white women aren’t buying it.
He needs to find evidence PRONTO.
Republicans should HAVE NOT lost Johnson County, Kansas and Henry Hyde’s old district, classical bastion DuPage.
Mr. President, find the evidence NOW and bring it out. Or else, don’t rant like this, you’re losing suburban women, and they are the key to winning again in 2020.
I know. I’m dating one in Jersey. Republicans shouldn’t have lost Frelinghuysen-Christie’s district.
Get on with it, Mr. President.
Treason. One of the few words almost as over-used as racist.
That’s like the difference between electronic surveillance and wiretapping.
Such as enlisting a foreign power like the U.K.?
Treason!
While they are not enemies per se, Australia and the UK are involved (Five Eyes). I believe he is right.
Yes.
Since Islam has been at war with the rest of the world from the beginning you could make the claim that Clinton and Obama are both guilty.
What about Steele and the Australian official?
Why do you think UK is screaming he should not declassify the FISA?
And slip in the part about Obama not being a US citizen . . .
I trust that Trump has been calculating the timing of these releases, but I hope he is not waiting for the Mueller investigation to end before he does. It will just serve as an incentive to drag the Mueller investigation out even further. The general public has been swallowing the Dem's Big Lie. Over 60% of Dems believe that the Russians altered the vote tallies, something that no one in power has ever asserted. The longer this goes on, the harder it will be to get perceptions changed.
