There is no evidence that the administration was actually sharing information with the Clinton campaign. This may have happened, but I would not put it past Obama to have his own private reasons for this type of surveillance with no intention of cutting Hillary in on the info.
Nixon apparently planned to blackmail his Democrat counterparts with exposure (50 points for anyone who knows the “goods” Nixon expected to find at the Watergate Hotel, after all, the MSM of the time never mentioned what the juicy details were supposed to be!). I wouldn’t be surprised at all to find that (1) Obama expected to gather information which could be used to pressure Trump, should he become POTUS, and (2) Obama may have had similar wire taps on Clinton for the same purpose.
After all, a “shadow government” was probably the plan no matter who won.
Well, except Hillary's tweet just before the election:
Democrat hookers, specifically one of the opposing side's wives, I believe. 😀
I don't have time to re-check. Got to go participate in a Twitter artillery barrage. :)
Nixon’s associates broke into the Watergate to gather information about Democrat candidates that had associations with a certain professional group of Ladies of the Evening. They were also on the prowl for planned Democrat campaign information, as a secondary target. The Ledgers were the main target, to see if the Ladies were paid with campaign cash.
“the goods
Prostitutes?
It’s not just a question of Obie’s actions. How many gov employees were in the know about the info and leaked it to Hillary?
