Obama’s Spying on Trump is Looking Worse Than Anything Nixon Could Have Dreamed Up

Obama officials are already turning on each other as they anticipate disclosures implicating them in potential criminality.

 

Former President Barack Hussein Obama’s illegal surveillance scandal of President Donald Trump is set to put Watergate to shame, as Obama allegedly used spying powers that put Nixon’s Watergate fiasco to shame.

Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 4, 2017

 

After Trump made that tweet shortly after becoming President, he was lambasted by the fake news and liberal establishment. Time has proven him correct, however, as commentator Michael Barone notes in the New York Post.

Barone explains that the likely motive behind the spying operations of Nixon and Obama, and shows why Obama’s actions were far more scandalous:

Both the Watergate wiretap and the Obama appointees’ investigator/spy infiltration were initially inspired amid fears that the upstart opposition might win. The Watergate burglary was planned when Nixon’s re-election was far from assured. A May 1972 Harris Poll showed him with only 48 percent against McGovern. It was only after the Haiphong harbor bombing and Moscow summit in early June made clear that US involvement in Vietnam was ending that Nixon’s numbers surged — just before the June 17 burglary.

In March 2016, it was conventional wisdom that Trump couldn’t be elected president. But his surprising and persistent strength in the Republican primaries left some doubtful, including the FBI lovebirds who instant messaged their desire for an “insurance policy” against that dreaded eventuality.

Their unease may have owed something to their knowledge of how the Obama Justice Department and FBI had fixed the Hillary Clinton emails case. Clinton wasn’t indicted but was left with a disastrously low 32 percent of voters confident of her honesty and trustworthiness.

There are two obvious differences between Watergate and the Obama administration’s infiltration. The Watergate burglars were arrested in flagrante delicto, and their wiretaps never functioned. And neither the FBI nor the CIA fully cooperated with the post-election cover-up.

That’s quite a contrast with the Obama law enforcement and intelligence appointees’ promotion of Christopher Steele’s Clinton campaign-financed dodgy dossier and feeding the mainstream media’s insatiable hunger for Russia collusion stories.

Don’t you love the irony? For almost fifty years the left has been bashing Nixon for Watergate, and now they committed a travesty far worse than the 37th president ever did himself. It’s all unraveling for them, but let’s see which Russiagate underlings gets sacrificed to save the “big dogs” who were involved in all of this!

At this point you’re premature with your way of thinking.

The Trump Tweet is based on The Thach Weave.

Where Trump's wingman is Pilot Officer Truth

The dims are programmed to attack Trump

Wingman Truth circles round and shoots them down

The Thach Weave (also known as a Beam Defense Position) is an aerial combat tactic developed by naval aviator John S. Thach of the United States Navy soon after the United States' entry into World War II.

Thach had heard, from a report published in the 22 September 1941 Fleet Air Tactical Unit Intelligence Bulletin, of the Japanese Mitsubishi Zero's extraordinary maneuverability and climb rate. Before even experiencing it for himself, he began to devise tactics meant to give the slower-turning American F4F Wildcat fighters a chance in combat. Every evening while he was based in San Diego, he would think of different tactics that could overcome the Zero's maneuverability, and tested them in flight the following day.

Working at night with matchsticks on the table, he eventually came up with what he called "Beam Defense Position", but which soon became known as the "Thach Weave". It was executed either by two fighter aircraft side-by-side or by two pairs of fighters flying together. When an enemy aircraft chose one fighter as his target (the "bait" fighter; his wingman being the "hook"), the two wingmen turned in towards each other.

After crossing paths, and once their separation was great enough, they would then repeat the exercise, again turning in towards each other, bringing the enemy plane into the hook's sights. A correctly executed Thach Weave (assuming the bait was taken and followed) left little chance of escape to even the most maneuverable opponent.

According to Victoria Toensing (sp) the spying was on far more than Trump. She says it goes back to 2012. Obama makes Nixon look like junior kindergarten.

Starting to think it’s never going to happen. But I still keep watching the soap opera anyway.

Thanks for posting this.

I’ve already mentioned to some Libs that what Obama has done makes Nixon look like an innocent little baby. LOL

Okay, Okay. Therefore what?
What to do now, other that Tsk-Tsking?

He’s still traveling the world spreading lies about the USA.
He was in Brazil last weekend saying anyone could get any kind of gun via the internet at anytime. All the sheep just lapped it up.

That’s what usually happens before the hammer comes down on people in such matters.

He only reason Nixon skated was Ford pardoned him for any and all crimes that may have been charged. Remember, Ford was on the Warren Commission.

What exactly would you expect from a foreign-born, born muslim? What exactly would you expect from an anti-America, anti-American communist?
