Or any other perceived wrongdoing by the Obama administration for that matter.

If this is true, and he has the evidence he claims to, then he needs to make it public. Otherwise bringing this up, true or not, is not beneficial and in fact counterproductive. It only serves to give those who oppose him more ammunition and makes him look like a liar (again). If Barack Obama had true dirt on Bush trying to thwart his campaign using his Presidential authority, we'd have known every intimate detail in January 2009.

Talking points are out. Second thread on this. Why should he declassify his personal phone calls? He is the victim. You lefties are intolerable.

True. Until he provides actual evidence, it's just baseless claims and the ravings of a mad man

Is a FISA warrant evidence?

It's becoming quite clear his goal was to give his followers false ammunition to rally behind, it distracts from the truth.

Props to Trump

Yes, the one Clapper said doesn't exist.

I've been thinking this exact thing. He may be purposely slow-playing his hand to 1) get more of the media and Dems to expose themselves as frauds, and/or 2) allow the PR side to become a frenzy before laying out the winning hand.

Or, he could be totally winging it without any sort of plan.

Because it would land him tremendous public support. I would also do more to hurt Obama's legacy and ultimately provide ammo to reverse his course than anything prior.

If he doesn't present the evidence, I can only logically assume it does not exist or it incriminates him in some way.

It's hilarious isn't it? I've literally never voted for a democrat in a national election but routinely get called a liberal by this board

All speculation until the dust settles.

We know the story, now we wait for the FISA documents (hopefully, if any), the information in those documents, what was surveyed and if it went above the court order.

Yeah, because Clapper doesn't have a history of lying about this sort of stuff or anything...

Has he even claimed to have any evidence? The main objective has already been achieved just by having people talk about it using words like "potentially"

We know for a fact that wire taps were done. There is no doubt about that that. So Clapper is either lying or they've got a bigger problem on their hands for not getting a FISA warrant prior to the wire tapping.
