Sean Spicer says Trump is 'extremely confident' that DOJ will find evidence of wiretapping

Extremely confident that there will be evidence of wire tapping by the Obama admin, or so says Spicer.

White House press secretary Sean Spicer said on Tuesday that President Donald Trump was "extremely confident" the Department of Justice would find evidence that the Obama administration wiretapped him before the election.

Spicer made the comment during Tuesday's press briefing when he was asked whether Trump was confident that any evidence would surface to support Trump's unsubstantiated claims of surveillance.

Spicer also clarified Trump's assertions that Obama was running general surveillance on Trump. Not specifically wiretapping him.

Spicer claimed that Trump had accused Obama of generally surveilling him, rather than of specifically wiretapping Trump's phones. Spicer argued that since Trump had put quotation marks around "wire tapping" in two of his four tweets, he was indicating the term should not be taken literally.

"I think there's no question that the Obama administration, that there were actions about surveillance and other activities that occurred in the 2016 election," Spicer said. "That is a widely reported activity that occurred back then."

The justice dept needs more time to sort out this mess and provide any evidence to The House intel committee. Time will tell on this.

On Monday, the Justice Department said it had asked for more time to respond to a request from members of the House Intelligence Committee to provide any evidence of the Obama administration's wiretapping of Trump.

No presidential candidate has ever boarded Air Force One until Obama had Hillary do that in the 2016 election. I believe something is definitely there. All they have to do is look.

What they have done to Trump is an abomination.

Why do they need to Find it???

He made the claim as a fact. Which means whatever they're looking for he already has or knows. That is how it works. You can't state something is a fact then look for the poof to make it so. You have the proof first then make that statement.

If they're looking to validate his statement then that means he lied when stating it was a fact and is now hoping someone will be able to prove him right.

That is called a lie. Plain and simple.

If you are going to go after a former pres, you better have your poop in a group. That's why they want time.

So, Breitbart and Levin aren't good enough?

a reply to: Phage

No, this is for realzees.

There is going to be a whole lot of covering ones ass in this. If there is a fraction of a percent of doubt, nothing will be found.

Then will Trump say he made it up?

Do you have a link to an article on this? I had never heard of this until just now.

If President Trump produced evidence I doubt you and other Trump haters would find it meritorious. Instead the congressional investigations will supeana witnesses to testify under oath and produce admissible evidence proving the Obama administration at least had knowledge of a wiretap on Trump Tower and thus Trump himself. The result will prove Trumps claim by people other than the Trump administration and will prove the media and liberal narrative regarding this issue, and by circumstance most other issues they carry, are false or misleading.

Seriously !

Patience is required when dealing with these sorts of things.

Patience to hear Trump say he made it up?

Nah, that would take immortality. Even that wouldn't be long enough.

Double dohhhh

Is it really that hard to believe that there was a wire tap? Like Ron Paul was saying in another thread, they don't need any fancy paperwork or signatures and they've pretty much got one on all of us.

No.

Actually, they do need signatures.

And the Trump needs to produce evidence that Obama committed a very serious crime while in office.


Maybe it was the Russians who tapped his phone.

You are getting ahead of yourself and the story. But if you want to dabble in fiction, be my guest.

Though Trump was using common figures of speech (metonymy, perhaps catachresis, hyperbole, and especially, parrhesia), try explaining that to a literal-minded press and public who are inured to the politicians who put public relations before bluntness. That's Spicer's task.

If there was "wire tapping" is it a classified tech? Are we even going to be allowed to be told if there was any dirty dancing going on?
