Trump radio silence

President Donald Trump has spent less than 15 minutes in the same room as reporters since he claimed on Twitter over the weekend, without evidence, that his campaign offices were wiretapped by his predecessor.
The upshot: He has yet to answer a single question about the accusation he made Saturday that former President Barack Obama had his “wires tapped” at Trump Tower, where he lived and worked during the presidential campaign.
A president can’t legally order a wiretap unilaterally, and Obama’s office flatly denied the charge.
Trump has offered no reason for his accusation, or any proof, and his allies on Capitol Hill were flummoxed by it, with many saying they have seen no evidence to support the president’s charge against Obama. White House press secretary Sean Spicer, faced with demands for evidence of the wiretapping, ultimately said the “tweets speak for themselves.”

Well, the evidence is actually overwhelming that he was tapped.
Where did the Post get transcripts of Flynn's calls from?
Well, from intercepted calls.
The NY Times in, 3 or 4 articles, referred to "wiretapping." Anybody can read the front page Times article from 1/20/17 headlined "Wiretap Data Used in Inquiry of Trump Aides.
Obama wiretapped Israel, France, Germany, Italy, James Rosen, Sheryl Atkisson, etc.
Who didn't he wiretap?

Pelosi has accused Trump of releasing "top classified information" when he tweeted Obama had wire tapped him. Even Pelosi knows Obama ordered the wire tap.
Notice Obama isn't saying shit other than his spokesperson saying "Obama didn't personally order the wire tap" Of course not, Obama just instructed his minions to obtain a wiretap warrant on Trump, once that was obtained the person with the warrant ordered it be conducted.

Everybody knows Trump was wiretapped.
The non-denial denial from Obama's people was hilarious, and you haven't heard Loretta deny it.
Look, even Left Wing newspapers like the Guardian and the NY Times were speaking routinely of wiretapping just a few months ago in hopes of halting Trump from being sworn in.
They apparently offered to pay Steele for that "dossier" of nonsense, which was a last ditch effort to stop Trump, but the Russian hooker stuff was so over the top that people just rolled their eyes.

Proof?
Oh wait...
Baghdad Bob claimed earlier in the day that Trump really didn't mean that...Obama "personally" wiretapped Trump?

Elkin, be honest for a second.
The Left has not one iota of proof that there was any connection of Trump to Russia, but they pounded that drum for months.
Actually, the proof which has emerged is that it was Hillary who had the Russia link (e.g., the uranium deal).
As to wiretapping, even liberal Dennis Kucinich was wiretapped by Barry's DNI.
Barry wiretapped Israel, France, Germany, Italy, James Rosen, Sheryl Atkisson....
As to Trump, they were looking for a connection between 2 Russia banks and Trump, so his server was tapped in October for less than 2 weeks and they found no pings.
There was also a FISA warrant in October, according to reports from Left-leaning outlets such as the Guardian, BBC, McClatchey, etc.
