This is a devastating accusation. Sincerely doubt Trump would make such an accusation unless the evidence is irrefutable and apparent. The FBI found the evidence when investigating the “leaks” or someone at CIA or NSA confessed and gave up the transcripts. The big question is how effective will the criminal and Congressional investigation be pursued. Will Obama operatives and commissars be willing to do jail time to protect Obama and Clinton? If nothing else it will keep the lowlife Democrats on the defensive.
“This is a devastating accusation.”
We’ve been hearing their BS about Russian interference in the election for months, but they had the phones of the Trump campaign headquarters illegally tapped.
This is too much. I can’t wait to see these hypocrites behind bars.
There is a paper trail thru the FISA courts.
That means that there has to be an individual in charge who now, regrettably, might or might not be the Attorney General because of his recusal on the Russia issue, but it must be a thoroughly reliable and capable law enforcement official who is willing to immediately impanel a grand jury and begin to take testimony. It must be a man who was willing to consider and possibly pursue a RICO case of criminal conspiracy.
It is essential that Trump was advised by some official, hopefully FBI Director Comey, who provided a tangible, written or recorded record of what Trump is alleging in his tweets, so that Trump's allegations concerning Obama are tied to him directly and not just by inference or by connecting dots, and in such a way that Obama's motives are plain to see.
I am sure it is only a matter of hours until more comes out. I question whether it was smart to vent and attack at five o'clock in the morning and whether it might have been much smarter to spend 48 hours consulting with the Department of Justice, the FBI, and explicitly laying out a case in a more coherent manner. This kind of reflexive reaction only makes Trump look erratic and is unnecessary and it, unfortunately, trivializes a potentially grave constitutional crisis.
It is necessary for Trump to mobilize the full power of the federal government on this issue and not to squander the momentum with erratic tweets.
Remember Dem Senator Schiff’s pale look after last week’s Comey briefing? Remember Gowdey’s comments about being careful with leaked information?
You are correct: This is a devastating accusation. Sincerely doubt Trump would make such an accusation unless the evidence is irrefutable and apparent. The FBI found the evidence when investigating the leaks or someone at CIA or NSA confessed and gave up the transcripts.
Trump did this many times during the last election and afterwards.
The liberals across the nation and the pearl grabbers on Fr would wet their Depends and go ballistic. A couple of weeks later, we would find out that Trump’s intel was correct, again.
