It really is that simple.

Trump threw out some awfully strong accusations. McCain is simply saying Trump needs to put his money where his mouth (twitter) is and prove it.

How could any reasonable person not agree with that?

McCain is about to get a lot more relevant if Trump doesn't support his allegations.

Obama's attorneys would be ill advised to threaten Trump with a lawsuit, given what Obama is currently engaged in, which could easily be called, "sedition." Obama could wind up in prison, if they want to go down that path. Frankly, I hope he does wind up in prison, for treason.
When is Trump gonna present all this evidence?

A perfectly common sense and reasonable statement. Make an accusation, back it up.

Why are his supporters so adverse to this?

Well, we know why, because deep down even they know he is a pathological liar and the odds are there is no evidence because it's untrue. Because really, if they thought Trump was telling the truth they would be right at the front of the line, salivating to see the proof that would bring down Obama.

The fact that they're not interested in seeing the evidence of such a mind blowing accusation tells us even they don't believe the so-called president. There can be no other explanation.

You're the one who's going to need a binkie 'when you're crying yourself to sleep at night after Trump takes away your health coverage.

I see our country is going to be very damaged by Clinton's affair with Lewinsky...

The orange buffoon lied about almost every single thing including petty things about his inauguration's crowd size and takes credit for the recent job #s when he thought it was all fake before...

The only reason why he isn't lying under oath yet is because we got Republicans w/o ballz running Congress who still thinks he can be used. He's lying everywhere else - on TV, twitter, etc. but i guess that's ok to you like all alternative facts are....
Clinton lied under oath and got disbarred because of it. This coming from a guy that voted for him and thinks in total he did a fairly good job.

Keep in mind that he's also the president that off-shored lots of jobs via NAFTA and also pardoned billionaire tax evader Marc Rich...whose wife paid millions to the DNC and then gave up citizen ship to avoid paying tens of millions in taxes.

You seem young idealistic and ill-informed.

I might not like Trump but he's not that much different from other presidents at this point and that's not a compliment.

They impeached Clinton for lying, specifically, UNDER OATH. Trump hasn't lied under oath since taking the oath of office.

Edit: My post is essentially redundant. First paragraph of previous post = Mathguy beat me to it by one minute.

The fact that you don't know that perjury is a crime kind of destroys anything you have to say on this topic.

So, America loves a LIAR! Something to really take pride in, huh?

And if he doesn't retract the statement, Obama's attorneys should threaten him with a lawsuit.

McCain: Trump Must Prove Wiretapping or Retract Claims





Hah!




That's ****ing hilarious!




On what grounds would Obama sue?




Did Trump sully Obama's spotless reputation for not spying on heads of state, news reporters and ordinary citizens?




Or did Trump malign Obama's character by suggesting that he interfered with an election?






Oh!


And while we're on the subject (military service aside), **** McCain!


It's time for his ass to retire.

It's like you live in some alternate universe where your ilk didn't criticize Obama for every little thing....

The mental gymnastics folks like you have to go through on a daily basis is crazy.
