Trump Accuses Obama of Wiretapping Trump Tower During Campaign
by Eoghan Macguire and Kasie Hunt


Donald Trump alleged in a tweet storm early Saturday that former President Barack Obama had wiretapped Trump Tower before his election victory.

Trump did not provide any evidence for the claims, which followed an interview on Fox News where the allegations came up.

"Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!" Trump wrote as part of a series of tweets Saturday morning.

He added: "Is it legal for a sitting President to be "wire tapping" a race for president prior to an election? Turned down by court earlier. A NEW LOW!"

NBC News reached out to former Obama administration officials and the White House for comment and clarification but had not heard back.

On Friday, Fox's Brett Baier asked House Speaker Paul Ryan whether he was concerned "that the Obama Administration may have been surveilling members of the Trump campaign in a pretty detailed investigation during the election?"

Ryan responded by saying: "I don't think that's the case."

There was no "interview on Fox News where the allegations came up."

Accounting to the investigating reporters Eoghan Macguire and Kasie Hunt, Trump did not provide any evidence for the claims, which followed an interview on Fox News where the allegations came up.

Now if you got proof that this report is false, bring that forth.

If you've got proof of this interview where is it. The whole thing if you don't mind, not just a soundbite.

This was breaking news early this morning of Trump allegations of Obamas wiretaps. In this report, you can see Trumps early morning activities.

There is more about this report in the link.

The fact is these allegations were made months ago by anonymous sources and the very dishonest liberal press.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, March 6th 2017 at 7:59PM

Sorry Steven, the powers that be has taken this exchange off the air.
