The President of the United States just accused the former President of the United States of committing a crime, and said this is a scandal of Watergate proportions.

Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump · 3h3 hours ago "Is it legal for a sitting President to be ‘wire tapping’ a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!"

There are two possibilities:
1. Trump is wrong, exaggerating, or lying
2. Obama is a traitor and a criminal
In either case, this is so serious that it requires an in-depth, far reaching, and immediate investigation.
Tell you what: if Sessions takes concrete action and informs Congress and the American people that the Justice Department is launching a criminal probe into whether or not Obama and his henchmen committed a crime against Trump and his family, and Sessions does so within the next critical 48 hours, I will say I was wrong, and dance in the streets.
If Sessions does not, then he is a do-nothing man who does not deserve to hold the position of Attorney General of the United States.
