This is freakin' hilarious. CNN and the media are spinning like tops to parse out what Clapper said to help maintain a lie:

Early Wednesday morning, Trump tweeted this about the Clapper interview:

"'Trump should be happy that the FBI was SPYING on his campaign' No, James Clapper, I am not happy. Spying on a campaign would be illegal, and a scandal to boot!"

Then, answering reporters' question on Wednesday afternoon, Trump said this: "I mean if you look at Clapper ... he sort of admitted that they had spies in the campaign yesterday inadvertently. I hope it's not true, but it looks like it is."

NO. HE. DIDN'T.

Uh, yes he did!

Clapper did the exact opposite of what Trump is saying he did. Literally. Clapper said that the FBI didn't spy on the Trump campaign.

Lizard-boy then adds this:

The intellectual dishonesty here is almost beyond calculation.

I agree, Lizard, your and CNN's intellectual dishonesty boggles the imagination...

CNN is doing word contortions as good as any biased Left Wing activist would, but I guess that is what you would expect from a Left Wing activist media outlet losing audience share because they cannot hide their hatred for Trump.

, went on "The View" -- weird, right?

No, not weird at all that the media hand of the "Death to America" continues to wash the swamp creature hand.

***WARNING***

CNN (Counterfeit News Network) – 1st Place in Trump's 2017 First Annual Fake News Winners AKA Biggest Liars of the Lying Leftist Media with FOUR entries in the top ten

Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.

Why not post the TRUTH about the lies? You don't have to use the liar as the source to post a headline that alerts readers to a published lie. Use yourself as the source or a reasonably reliable source that addresses what the Lying Leftist source is saying. That way you have a headline and a source that your readers can reasonably rely on and they go away more informed about the lie AND the truth.

If this story is true and has some redeeming value, at least get the story from a reasonably reliable source, not from a known Lying Leftist operative posing as a “news” organization. You’ve done the Patriotic Right a service. Much better than the mindless repetition of lying sources and their lying headlines.

If we’re told a lie, don’t repeat it. Neutralize the lie by speaking the truth. Lies aren’t defeated by repeating the lie. Lies are defeated by repeating the truth. We should have our eyes on the prize - in this case, politically, what it takes to recover our Free Constitutional Republic. That should be what we major on and focus on.

IMO, if a poster can't be bothered to do that, then they shouldn't post. If they're going to be bothered to post, do it right. We're on a mission here.

If Clapper was trying to gather intelligence about Russia interfering with our election process, he would’ve told Trump what he was doing and why, also he would’ve asked for Trump’s assistance...

He is a lying piece of dog crap....

These folks are still operating under the old rules: "We can just say anything we like, and the media will cover for us, and no one will ever notice how slimey we are."

They catch on slow. The rules of the game have changed.

No one in the MSM has asked why, if this was known to be an external Russian initiative, Trunp wasn’t told, and why Mueller keeps investigating Trump as if it was Trumps idea to collude with Russia.

Can’t have it both ways.

Remember when Bush put spies in Obama’s campaign- to make sure the Russians weren’t “interfering”? Me neither.

But I am glad to see that the liberals are OK with this.

I am sure they won’t mind, then, if Trump packs all the DNC meetings with spies too- just to make sure Russia is not interfering.

Clapper saying that they did not 'spy' on the Trump Campaign while having a paid informant IN the Trump Campaign, is like Willie Sutton saying he's just 'borrowing money' from a bank he just robbed...................

We don't need to see nor read anything from CNN when they employ the maggot infected mediots shown below as their premier Fake News bozos!

Why would any normal and sane person believe any fake news from CNN. Just look at CNN's top Fake News’s maggot/mediots.

Rachael Madkow and Susan Mikula dating since 1999 but still not in a hurry to get married!

CNN anchor Don Lemon stepping out on a Saturday night holding hands with his rumored boyfriend. The 51-year-old veteran journalist attended the star-studded Saturday Night Live after party at Tao Restaurant and Night Club in New York City with Tim Malone. It appears as though Lemon has been dating Malone since at least April, according to a number of photos posted to their respective social media accounts. But this is the first time Lemon has been photographed publicly with Malone, who works as a sales executive in his 30s and graduated from Boston College in 2006, according to his LinkedIn profile.

“Seems pretty straightforward, right? Clapper makes crystal clear that the FBI was not spying on the Trump campaign.”
Yep! Clear as crystal; if you’re so gullible as to believe Clapper, “The Lying Machine”.

If Trump was not notified in advance then they were spying on him and his campaign, NOT “trying to figure out what the Russians were doing.”

And if it’s such a privilege, Hillary Clinton would have clamored to have one assigned to her campaign as well, for her own good.

He should be happy that the FBI is trying to find any evidence it can to impeach him. That’s proof right there that something foul is afoot.

This fake news defies logic, until you realize some day, that the Deep State owns/controls the DNC, the DOJ/FBI/CIA, our media and its fake news/lying mediots.

Using clapper logic, you could justify any crime, just flip the motive.
