The US President unleashed a string of tweets slamming his predecessor

DONALD Trump has claimed Barack Obama had his “wires tapped” in Trump Tower during the US election.

The US President claimed his predecessor had tapped his phones during the “very sacred election process”, slamming it as a “Nixon/Watergate” scandal.

In a series of Tweets, Donald Trump made the claim, slamming it as a “new low”. He then appeared to brand Obama a “bad (or sick) guy”.

The property tycoon turned politician wrote: “How low has President Obama gone to tap my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!”

Watergate refers the early 1970s political scandal which forced the resignation of Republican President Richard Nixon when it emerged that the Democratic party’s headquarters had been broken into.

He also tweeted: “Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my “wires tapped” in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!”

Not such a wild claim by Trump:

Also, if obama could use the IRS to target opposition, my guess is that he could use the FBI, NSA, and CIA for corrupt actions too.

Yep, put nothing past obama’s behavior prior to, during and after his presidency. Illegal should be his middle name, in word and deed. And he’s not finished.Remember, he’s a community activist to the core, and he has thousands of remaining sycophants and fellow travelers in the Federal Government, happy to oblige his every whim. This is going to be a protracted cold war to get these traitors out of the Fed. A long and bitter war. Trump better get reelected so he can continue the sanitation.

Not such a wild claim by Trump: Its a proven fact that Obama used the IRS to target opposition. He's a hustler, a con man, an individual desperate for power. He's not above using the FBI, NSA, and CIA for corrupt actions, too.

Trump is in a position now to where all he has to do is go ask people in the intelligence community if this is true. My guess is that some would be willing to tell the truth.

I am okay if obama goes to jail forever. I would also be okay if he was dumped in the ocean and fed to sharks.

Barky never showed much knowledge or respect for the law. This might not prove to be true but it sure SOUNDS TRUE.

The USA owes Richard Nixon an apology. Barack Obama made what Nixon did look like child’s play. Further, how many died as a result of Nixon’s malfeasance?
