“I’m very worried that our president is suggesting the former president has done something illegal,” Graham said at a town hall in Clemson, S.C., reports The Hill.
“I’d be very worried if in fact the Obama administration was able to obtain a warrant lawfully about Trump campaign activity with foreign governments," said Graham. "It’s my job as United States senator to get to the bottom of this."
And if Obama had been able to legally obtain a warrant for the wiretaps, "it would be the biggest scandal since Watergate," said Graham.
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif, the ranking Democrat on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said Saturday Trump had leveled a "spectacularly reckless allegation" against his predecessor, and pushed back at Trump's description of Obama as a "bad (or sick) guy."
"If there is something bad or sick going on, it is the willingness of the nation's chief executive to make the most outlandish and destructive claims without providing a scintilla of evidence to support them," Schiff said in a statement.
“It’s the seriesness of the Charge!” - Rat Hacks of yore....
Obama, the guy who committed multiple acts of treason while Congress sat on its hands. Yes, WHYYY would he ever tap Trump?
So that is where that statement was made. It appears he draws a rather large contingent of Democrats to his town hall events considering all of the cheering going on as he did his little standup comic routine in clear support of Obama as he trashed Trump. The man is disgusting.
Remember Trump won that state by 14% over Clinton.
I really feel that this goes back to 2012...
Barky was worried that Sheriff Joe and Trump had the goods on him over his Birth Certificate, so he had some ‘wire tapping’ going on...
First it was denied, then they cooked up this Russia thing and was allowed to do it, knowing that the ‘bugs’ were already in place, they just had the media keep the RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA thing going to cover their tracks, knowing if certain people found out about why Barky was worried about Trump they would either make him stop or indict him for illegal wire tapping...
And how did Al Franken know just how to phrase that question to Jeff Sessions if he didn’t know Trump was being ‘wire tapped’???
Oh my WATERGATE 2.0
Why does Newsmax run dog manure from the Asspress?
Im shocked that Lindsey Graham was able to speak since his lips are always so firmly pressed on Obama’s backside..imagine for one second, if George W Bush had done this, wiretapped Obama’s phones during the 2008 campaign..then after Obama won, moved TWO BLOCKS AWAY to have some Shadow Govt..how the media would have reacted
It seems simple - who requested the warrant for the wiretap?
Can anyone help me understand Obama’s claim of innocence in light of the tap of James Rose and his parents?
You mean like the entire Democrat Party has done, along with their complicit presstitudes, with a sitting President and not a scintilla of proof to back up theirs exhortations?
What if this were changed just a bit?
...neither President Obama nor any White House official ever requested surveillance on any U.S. citizen.
This will go one of two ways
1) Trump is innocent and backfires against 0bummer thus Trump becomes oneof the best and most supported Presidents behind Reagan.
Or
2) Trump is innocent and 0bummer gets Trump impeached causing massive rioting and civil unrest bringing on The United States 2nd Civil War.
Now we know what the Russia meme is really about.
It is about covering for a criminal conspiracy by the previous administration that far exceeds anything Nixon did.
So far, EVERYTHING Trump’s enemies have thrown at him has backfired FAILED bigly.
Hope this leads to some orange jumpsuit perp walks. If so, I may make posters of them to hang on my wall.
The fact that it’s mixed shows that there’s truth to it. Bottom line is that Trump would NEVER tweet this without having rock solid evidence. It explains WHY the left and the media has been trying to push the russian angle so much...they want to use it to justify why they were wiretapping trump for political purposes. They wanted to dig up dirt to use against him in the election.
