That's a deflection if I've ever seen one. The New York Times can report something and be wrong later. The President of the United States can not.

Who uses the verbage "wiretapped data"? This whole thing just sucks, we are just watching the media and the president beat off into each others face.

they are just agreeing with the right on the issue that MSM is Fake News.

And Trump is using that fake news from the failing nyt to source allegations of major crimes against the former POTUS.

Notice how the story makes no claims that Obama ordered any wiretapping? Hell, it doesn't even mention Trump Tower or Trump himself being wiretapped

Maybe not, but he was the idiot who just throws stuff out there without checking it. You know leader of the free world. Who has more access to true information than anyone on the planet.

There is some nuance missing here. The US tapping the Russian Ambassador and then a campaign aid calling that Ambassador isn't the same as tapping Trump Tower phonelines, which the president was saying Obama had illegally ordered

Why in the world is the President of the United States hysterically tweeting something on a Saturday morning from the New York Times six weeks before without checking if it is true or not?

That is utterly stupid and there's no way to spin it.

I hope he will finally learn from this, but since he has zero impulse control when it comes to conspiracy theories, my guess is he won't. But, for the good of the country, put the phone down.

They 100% did say this.


And Trump did not. He publicly accused Obama, by name, of wiretapping his phones. Where did Trump read that?
