Let see.
  • Obama accuses Trump of Colluding with Russians, but No Proof - This is OK with Trump's detractors.
  • Trump says that Obama Illegally tapped his phones - Trump Detractors - Where's the Proof.
Double standard for sure.

You needed a 3rd category, 'I do not know whether I believe the wiretapping happened.'

That's why I said "what do you think?". Thank you for your opinion.

It's a double standard and both sides have acted childish and stupid. Trump is no better then Obama, so you did manage to get something right.

Never made that claim. But we do know that Trump beat Obama 2.0 aka Hillary Clinton. It was a stunning blow too.

The Trump win was a sharp rebuke of Obama's failed legacy as President. And now we see how he acts behind the scenes.

Obama has often been being "More incompetent that Carter, more corrupt than Nixon". Seems as if that's the case.

Can Trump really be so dumb to not know that if his phones were tapped there was probable cause? I wouldn't be announcing to the world that my integrity was in question.

Yes, well Hillary sucks. Obama sucks. And Trump may be a smidgen better, but I don't trust him at all. I would take it with a grain of salt what he tweets and says.

Nothing more than a ridiculous witch hunt as a BO spokesman has completely denied this stupid allegation by the Tweeter in Chief.

Stop tweeting lies Donny and start acting and governing like a real President - oh I forgot you're not, and you can't!
