Hey @Sickofleft , no comment on Trump admitting the truth? He can't actually show evidence that Obama wiretapped his campaign? No proof that there was surveillance, other than "people are talking about it"?

It's funny how lefty acts and tries to discredit one of the best Presidents in our lifetime in order to promote an idiot that can't find his ass with a compass.

You think lefty is promoting Trump?

In your opinion he was one of the best...not in mine. He has been the most divisive and dishonest presidents in my lifetime. I provided a link to him accusing Obama of a crime and then admitting he doesn't stand by the accusation.

He had the highest turnover of any administration ever. His own VP will not endorse him and would not run with him again. He is the only president ever to attempt to overturn the election to stay in power. The only one impeached twice. The only one to be indicted...ever.

national debt jan 2017 $19.9 trillion. jan 2021 $29.8 trillion
Dow Jones jan 2017 19872 jan 2021 30,606 now 39,806

You prefer the president who doesn't know his elbow from a hot rock....ask him about "clean coal". He thinks coal companies mine it and then wash it before it is sold.
He also tells us that windmills cause cancer....and the British has an air force in 1776.

Useful idiots are in fact.... well idiots.

They spied on his campaign, they lied to get FISA warrants, the CIA ran a bump and manipulate operation on his campaign associates. The entire thing was all based on a story they made up and they used it to undermine his entire Presidency.

Democrat who are just loathsome ass-oles are proud of this.

The FISA warrant they got on Carter Page allowed them to seize all of his communications and all the communications of the people he communicated with. Which backdoored them into the Trump Campaign in 2016......

The FBI "insurance policy"


Trump is 77 years old, in the 80's and 90's "wiretapping" was a thing, so that is the terminology he used to describe the above. He was mocked for this but the FACTS are the same... THEY SPIED ON HIS CAMPAIGN.

You will continue to lie about this because.... well that is what you do.

 

[Sickofleft]

Useful idiocy 101.

Well, you may be an idiot, but hardly useful.

No...they didn't have a warrant to spy on the Trump campaign. They got a Fisa warrant to spy on a guy who no longer worked for the campaign and had been kicked out...By the way...The application for the warrant was October 21, 2016....By election day November 8, 2016...just how much surveillance do you think had been done? Do you have any evidence at all that there was anything related to communication between Page and the campaign in those two weeks?

How was his presidency "undermined"?

You will continue to lie about this because.... well that is what you do.

Thanks for interpreting the stupid shit Trump said...but it doesn't help much. The IG and the investigation said there was no problem with the first two FISA applications...

 

[Sickofleft]

As predicted, he just keeps lying.

And once again...you call me a liar without even a shred of evidence addressing any part of my post.

As predicted, he just keeps lying.

By the way...while you say wiretapping is old school, what Trump said is that he would not stand by his accusation that his campaign was under surveillance.

Did the British have an air force in 1776?

FISA's "three hop rule" gave them access to his conversations as well as those whom he conversed with, as well as the people the people he conversed with conversed with. Ypu know that because I have told you that...repeatedly. You can say that gave them no access to the communications of people in the campaign, but you'd be lying.

What is the relevance of the date? Are you suggesting they stopped the surveillance once the election was held? That would be a lie as well. The Page warrant was renewed several times deep into 2017. At that point, in all likelihood, they were using them to listen in on Trump administration officials' conversations.

1. After the FISA application...on Oct 21...how many days would it take to actually initiate any kind of surveillance on Carter Page? Maybe a week?
2. No, I did not imply surveillance on Page ended on election day....but the campaign ended on election day. What would be the point of any kind of contact between Page and anyone in the campaign?
3. Is there any evidence that Page was in contact with anyone in the campaign or the administration after he was fired in September?

1. Irrelevant - it wasn't a "campaign" operation, it was a Trump operation.
2. They were friends, perhaps? Associates? I would ordinarily chalk this one up to your rabid pedantry, but in this case, judging by how you post here, I think you actually do believe that there is no reason for people who work together to fraternize. I'm betting you have never been to an office party in your life.
3. Again, it only had to be someone he spoke with who DID have contact with "anyone in the campaign or administration after he was fired in September." I'd bet my life that he did.

I and others have addressed your debunked re-worded talking points constantly.

You just ignore them and keep lying, at this point you are even giving Bugsy (our resident Bagdhad Bob) a run for his money.

The campaign said that they had NO contact with Page after finding out he was (by his own admission) a Kremlin agent. The warrant was clearly used to spy on Russia, not to spy on Trump.

1. What? Surveillance of Carter Page would have taken time to implement.
2. Do you have any evidence that any communication between Page and anyone working on the Trump campaign happened between Oct 21 and election day? If Page went out for a drink with someone who had worked on the Trump campaign...just what did the FBI listen in on? Maybe directional microphones to listen in?
3. Again...where is the evidence that supports your suspicion?

By the way....when challenged, Trump refused to stand behind his statement that there had been surveillance on his campaign...did you miss that in the OP?
