Napolitano was a judicial analyst, not a reporter. As such, he pulled information from his sources to form a scenario which he should have presented as a scenario and not as fact. I don't think it was his intention to mislead. "It could have happened this way" is a whole lot different than "this is how it happened".
Unfortunately, he misspoke and it came back to bite him. That doesn't eliminate the possibility that a number of people are scrambling to cover their backsides for reasons that we don't know.
Donald J. Trump has been exposed as a delusional pathological liar with his seemingly baseless accusation that former President Obama spied on him. Unless he declassifies top secret and unconstitutional domestic surveillance programs most people around the world are just going to view him as a crazy conspiracy theorist. The ball is in his court. What's he gonna do?
Yes, he should have presented it as a hypothetical.
However, he didn't. He said Fox had three sources that confirmed this. This was news to Fox.
While you may have faith in Napolitano's pure intentions and are eager to forgive him for having "misspoken," the fact is he peddled yet another of his half-baked conspiracy theories as gospel truth.
Trump tweeted it out and is now blaming Fox News for lying to him.
"Don't blame me. I just repeated lies from Fox News," hardly seems like a worthwhile POTUS mantra, now does it?
This may be the most abjectly pathetic statement EVER.
The man has one of the most capable and sophisticated intelligence agencies on the face of the earth at his fingertips.
I truly don't think he grasps the fact that he's president. But then, it was a lot more fun being a candidate...
FBI Director Comey wouldn't be where he is if he couldn't play political poker.
He proved that yesterday during hours of steely testimony in which he stated the FBI had seen no evidence that Obama had wiretapped Trump.
NSA Admiral Rogers, his loyal Sancho Panza, testified that there was not a shred of evidence that the Brits did it either.
Furthermore, there's been an investigation going on into this Russian business since last July. Would not comment on whether any current Trump employees are subjects of the investigation.
Comey says they are going to keep looking until they figure it out because the answers matter.
Who are "you guys" that I suddenly belong to? You don't know me, have NO idea what I've thought in the past about this so don't group me in with any "guys"...
That's the new way of conversing. "You Libs" or "The Left" and "You Cons", etc. The assumptions are ridiculous, as if there are just two set ways of looking at anything and you're in one camp or the other.
Fox has pulled the reporter off the air, every official has debunked the story. There is nothing more that can be done to show the wiretap story was nonsense. Here's your chance Trump Clan. Prove to us that you are in fact capable of admitting your boy was wrong.
It's been over 8 hours since I issued this challenge. The Cult could not go 8 minutes without a post as long as Hillary was the topic. But in 8 hours not one of you had the stones to step up and admit your boy was wrong here.

Absolutely pathetic.
On other threads, they are posting about how Trump knew all along he was being watched and everyone knows Obama was behind it.

I'm not kidding.
Every day we have the right and the left and we don't agree. That's fine. But we are in a new world now, they have seriously lost their minds.
