Because the RUSSIANS ARE WIRETAPPED.

Guess what? It's not illegal to talk to the Russians. It's normal. You know what is illegal, wiretapping members of a rival political party.

Yes, wording matters A LOT.
Trump specifically said that OBAMA bugged his phones, and it was Nixon/Watergate style (that means illegally).
Sean is now try to sphincter-splain it to mean (unproven) FISA approved bugging.

This too is another huge story the alt-left MSM is ignoring...Soooo, the last AG is now calling for blood death and violence...think about it...and why this is not THEE lead story on any 'MSM' 'news' network?
How come she didn't recuse herself from the Clinton email investigation after she was caught in a secret meeting with Bill Clinton? How come no one on the left demanded it?

WASHINGTON — The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, asked the Justice Department this weekend to publicly reject President Trump’s assertion that President Barack Obama ordered the tapping of Mr. Trump’s phones, senior American officials said on Sunday. Mr. Comey has argued that the highly charged claim is false and must be corrected, they said, but the department has not released any such statement.

Mr. Comey made the request on Saturday after Mr. Trump leveled his allegation on Twitter. Mr. Comey has been working to get the Justice Department to knock down Mr. Trump’s claim because there is no evidence to support it and it insinuates that the F.B.I. broke the law, the officials said.
You know things are bad and going seriously off-track when even the FBI director has to communicate through the so-called fake press to try to get the truth out. Weirder by the minute.

Ok, let's dissect this Trump "allegation".

1) So far , all we have are words coming out of Donald Trump's mouth, saying he was wiretapped.

2) Since Donald Trump is a known pathological liar, can we put any credence on anything he says ?

Trump is the little boy who yells wolf too many times, and each time it is found to be false. This is nothing more than his weak attempt to muddy the waters of the investigation into his relationship with Putin.

Trump graduated from the school that says "The best defense is a good offense." He is a master at turning the tables to divert blame and attention from himself. This time, it ain't gonna work.

NOW we are going finally prove it.

The leader of our nation, the Commander in Chief of our military, the man with the nuclear launch codes appears to be off his rocker.

He's the POTUS, for crying out loud. He doesn't need to resort to tweeting out demands for an investigation into whether his condo was wire tapped. He calls those who report to him and asks.

Trump's senior advisor is a man who looks like a unshaven drunk and openly calls for the destruction of our nation and our institutions. What is supposed to eventually replace the burning rubble is still unclear.

With the exception of Mattis and McMaster (thank you, Jesus), each cabinet nominee is more incompetent than the last. Some are admitted swindlers. His Secretary of Commerce co-owns the Bank of Cyprus that works with Deutsch Bank to launder money from Russian oligarchs. His Attorney General, our nation's Top Cop lied under oath in his Senate confirmation hearing.

Trump lies about everything from the size of his inaugural crowd to whether the sun comes out when he speaks, yet is constantly calling the media dishonest. What man in his right mind stands in front of the CIA and lies through his teeth?

His staff is a rotating list of those with questionable Kremlin connections, yet he blathers on about "fake news" when anyone asks what's going on.

He refuses to reveal his tax returns, divest financial conflicts of interest, or come clean on what he owes the Russians.

Yet the RW's big concern is playing gotcha with the last president?

Please. We are way past that.

Dear Lord, the man is off on a tropical beach somewhere sipping tall drinks, and he's still such a menace in your head that you think he has to "hang his hat" on something?

Cheeto Supreme has produced nothing but Infowars-quality drivel, as per usual.

That video is pretty provoking.

Do dems not get it that to further play the victim card, try and take down Trump ect... does nothing to promote the party? In the end - people just sick of the BS will lean right even more. There are many good people that couldn't get behind Trump or Hillary and stayed home. Unfortunately even they are fed up with all the protests, allegations ect.. and think it's time for people to grow up and work together. Welcome Trump for another 4 years as there is no one the Democrats could run now that I could get behind.
