House Intelligence Chair Doesn’t Think Trump Tower Was Wiretapped


Well yeah. I think anyone could have told you that…

From NPR

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes says he doesn’t believe “there was an actual tap of Trump Tower,” contrary to claims made by President Trump.

And the top Democrat on the House committee, Adam Schiff, told NPR’s All Things Considered “there’s no evidence” to support Trump’s claim.

Trump alleged that his predecessor, President Barack Obama, tapped his phone at Trump Tower in a pair of tweets earlier this month.

Trump has not produced any evidence to back his assertion.

He hasn’t produced any evidence because there is no evidence. Trump Tower wasn’t wiretapped. Drumpf wasn’t wiretapped. The whole thing is just more bullshit.

Schiff says the question will remain: “Why would the president do this? And that’s a question the president will have to answer.”

In a Fox News interview to air Wednesday night, Trump seemed to equivocate somewhat, saying “wiretap covers a lot of different things.” Trump also says in the interview that he expects “some very interesting items coming to the forefront over the next two weeks.”

Speaking at a Capitol Hill news conference, Nunes, a Republican from California, said:

“President Obama wouldn’t physically go over and wiretap Trump Tower. So now you have to decide, as I mentioned to [the press] last week, are you going to take the tweets literally? And if you are then clearly the president was wrong. But if you’re not going to take the tweets literally and there is a concern that the president has about other people, other surveillance activities looking at him and his associates — either appropriately or inappropriately — we want to find that out.”

Oh come on, Nunes! Agent Orange wasn’t being literal?

Wow. They really have to bend and twist in impossible ways to justify his lies, don’t they?

He lied.

It’s that fucking simple. Just admit that your party is backing a fucking liar, who currently occupies the White House.
