This is the perfect response.

Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) suggested that the president may want to" lawyer up."

“Mr. President: If there was a wiretap at Trump Tower, that means a fed judge found probable cause of crime which means you are in deep ****,”

Or

Lieu took it a step further.

“Either @realDonaldTrump is paranoid like Nixon, or judge found probable cause of crime for #wiretap. Either way our President is in trouble,”

Sorry to bust your idealistic bubble view of the world but we don't live in a textbook world anymore. We have a corrupt system up and down the lines. I think steven H framed it best:

Some feel this topic can best be discussed/addressed aboard a jet in private on a tarmac. Ahhhh.....well......actually nothing but talk about golf and the grandkids of course.

That's really really bad for Trump.


I'm still annoyed that Trump worshippers are still defending him on this board. Can't they go run away to 4chan or whatever Russian cesspool they came from?
They should be posting recipes on how to prepare crow

These are all Trump statements, all ABSURD and all are made with NO EVIDENCE.

FYI: Just because Trump has not provided evidence (yet), does NOT mean it did not occur. You should become more familiar with our new president. He does not tip his hand and reveal to the general public. He is a smart strategist and only reveals when he is ready, only then will he show what his evidence consists of, and not on your time frame but his own. Perhaps there will be some liberals eating crow pretty soon here...

The president is unhinged, just like anyone repeating this garbage as truth. He's desperate to distract the public away from the oncoming Russian/election tsunami.

This sounds more like political back stabbing. Some are calling it Obamagate.

What do you think?
If he did that and if Obama did not get Congressional approval to wage a low intensity war against Syria, and if Putin did get approval from Russia's equivalent of Congress, then the United States is all the more ridiculous in its narratives.

Next, the US will be claiming it has low gun violence and railing against the political leaders of Japan for turning Japan into a gun warzone.
