Wiretapping 3-18-2017

Once again, Mr. Trump seems to be peddling more inflammatory nonsense in a desperate attempt to deflect attention away from the ongoing investigation linking his election team’s possible collusion with Russia.

The former president, the former director of national intelligence, the FBI director, the speaker of the House and the chairmen of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees — all deny that Obama tapped Trump’s phone.  

FBI director, Comey asked the Justice Department to repudiate the claim. Comey’s unprecedented action may be an effort to ingratiate himself with Clinton and her supporters who hold him responsible for gifting the election to Donald Trump.

Mr. Trump’s latest accusation is much like his earlier racial taunts that President Obama was born in Africa. Last year he repeated a bizarre accusation from his guru, Mark Levin, that Ted Cruz’s father played an active role in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

The White House press secretary insisted that Obama had used Britain’s spy agency, GCHQ, to eavesdrop on Trump which was vehemently denied by the British government.

It is time Trump offers an unconditional apology to President Obama failing which Obama should seek justice and compensation through the courts. POTUS is not above the law of the land.
