Re: Susan Rice Requested Unmasking of Incoming Trump Administration Officials
Trump definitely meant the word wiretap(p). I know he tried to spin it by saying he really meant "surveillance", but that's just horsecrap. If he didn't mean wiretap, then why did he mention Watergate?
Sure he did. Because the idea that the intel agencies could be weaponized against an incoming president is pretty scandalous. Thats exactly the word that was used in several stories way back when. NYT being one. It is intellectually dishonest to claim that word does not mean surveilled in this day and age and could include many formats of surveillance. Still have your rotary phone?
But all that is way besides the issue.

SAME NY Times Reporter Said Trump Team Was Wiretapped In Jan., But Said TRUMP Lacked Evidence In March
"This is the ultimate in liberal media bias. In January Michael S. Schmidt perpetuated the rumor that team Trump had Russian connections, and to support his point he said that Trump’s people were wiretapped. However when President Trump claimed his people were wiretapped, the same guy, Michael S. Schmidt said there was no evidence.
Either the Times editors and Mr. Schmidt are trying to skew the story, or they are all suffering from a form of dementia and have no memory."
"These people at the New York Times write in January that Trump was wiretapped and that’s why we know he was working with the Russians. A month and a half later, Trump claims Obama wiretapped him, and the New York Times writer says, “There’s no evidence of that.” Well, was there no evidence when you wrote about it in January or did you forget what you wrote in January? Is it your raw hatred for Trump, your raw resentment at having lost, is that what’s causing you to lose every ounce of credibility, morality, authority, and credibility that you’ve got?
It’s not Trump who has some explaining to do. It’s not you who voted for Trump who have some explaining to do. You don’t need to justify yourselves, nor does Trump. But the people running this silent coup, the people in the media trying to unseat, trying to damage, trying to sabotage Trump,
they have a lot of explaining to do."
Too easy but people will potshot the messenger every time.
