President Donald Trump claimed Thursday that former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper had admitted that the FBI spied on his presidential campaign, further escalating his attacks on the law enforcement and intelligence communities charged with probing possible collusion with Russia.
"Clapper has now admitted that there was Spying in my campaign," Trump tweeted, referring to an interview Clapper did Tuesday on ABC's "The View."
But that's false Clapper did not say that. Responding to a direct question from one of the hosts, Joy Behar "Was the FBI spying on Trump's campaign?" Clapper said, "No, they were not."
He went on to explain that the purpose of the FBI's reported use of an informant, which is different from a "spy," was to determine what the Russians were doing.

Notice the detailed discussion of wiretaps on members of the Trump team.
You didnt? Me neither. In any case I think I would tap Russian phones if I wanted to know what the Russians were up to. And the same goes for the Trump team.
Scratching to support a made up story was never likely to turn up anything from the Trump Team or the Russians. And it didnt.
Likewise, there is no such thing as a “heart attack”; its proper name is myocardial infarction. We must be precise! /s

So they had someone in Hillary’s campaign?
Seems to me, they would have informed Trump if he wasn’t the target.
Liars. Their voters are so brainwashed and stupid they think they can get away with this.
Of course, they’ve gotten away with their treason for decades.
Clapper later went on Tapper to “clarify”, and danced around like a clown. It was nauseating. Clapper is a lying weasel, period.
James Clapper did NOT say what Donald Trump keeps saying he said
The media has to do contortions to try to mislead people and obfuscate. The fact is, they embedded a spy in the Trump campaign, they don't want to argue that.
Maybe instead of infiltrating the trump campaign the feds should have infiltrated the House Democrats to figure out what the Pakistanis were doing running their server...
And maybe should have been watching the Pakistani embassy to prevent the loss of that Iranian nuclear scientist who ended up getting executed when he as returned to Iran.
And should have discovered all that late night money laundering the Obama admin was doing to get around sanctions on Iran.
Clapper is one dumb a@@hole. All the way back to being asked about “what happened in London” (the major muzzie bombing) to which he replied “what happened in London?” The idiot did. not. know— and he was the Director of National Intelligence. Obviously not paying attention.
Clapper is stupid, Brennan is a major fraudulant communist (and muzzie convert from Irish Catholicism- imagine that potential?), and Comey make the Tribunal of criminal espionage for the DNC and particularly for the well paying Clintons, at the direction of mr. obamaumao. This is as plain as the cooperation of the totally compromised CORPORATE media like Comcast/NBC (formerly, RCA/NBC, and later General Electric/NBC).
Clapper is simply lying. He’s a simpleton who began as a radio spook in C-47s over Laos and Vietnam. Zero imagination, focused monolithic “mission” idiocy, and the classic democrat liberal “colonel” found through out Army intel particularly. A human drone, droning on, self righteously. Imagine he headed up all these agencies as a coordinator and also took active part in FALSE warrants sought from the FISA courts. Corrupt to his core.
John Dean’s wife, Maureen-— was one of those “special women” whose photo was in the call girl book at the DNC headquarters, when the burglers broke in. His entire “control” by the DNC in turning evidence against the “set up” Richard Nixon (whose mistake was being loyal to the idiots who did the burglary)— was because the democrats dangled the potential outing of his “former” whore wife— who was still in the book. This is not conjecture— it is fact.
So, not surprising the dems would return to another whore, and her attorney to try to make BS crapola “stick” to a much sharper shrewd businessman President (who is also a serious anti-communist, as Nixon was. Nixon was never forgiven by the lib-commie Deep State for outing and convicting Alger Hiss, the button down lying proven Soviet agent who steered FDR right into the hands of Stalin, and Truman’s admin as well- played by the Stalinist KGB). The ORIGINAL democrat preference-— to COLLUDE with Soviets/Russians, just as Teddy made overtures to Brezhnev to influence/help in the 1984 elections to defeat Reagan.

Burglar: “I only broke into their house to protect them from the Russians.”

How can the Democrats claim that Mueller’s investigation is about finding out about the Russia/Trump Campaign collusion, while at the same time say that they put a spy into the Trump Campaign to see if the Russians were trying to infiltrate the Trump Campaign?!?
If they were colluding together, then why would the Russians need to “infiltrate” the Trump Campaign?!?
They can’t keep their lies and stories straight! This is how coups are toppled - loose lips since ships!!
Nbc, lying again. It’s on RECORD that clapper the flapper, flapped his lips about the FBI spying on Trump.
They are Grubering again - relying on the stupidity of the American people.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
The real purpose of going to the moon was to get a sample of green cheese.
Of collusion vs raprochement with Iran
