Trump backs down

[Roudy]

It was joke. All Spicer said was that Trump didn't think Obama tapped his phone personally. As in snuck into Trump Tower with a screwdriver. That's how I took it.

He went waaaay beyond that. He said Trump did not mean "wiretapping" when he said "wiretapping".

Why don't you ask the liberal whackjob NY Times and WAPO what they meant in their several Trump hit pieces in the past, when they referred to wiretaps on Trump campaign and aids?

Chickenshit Trump send out Spicer to back down from his wire tap claim. The spineless orange wonder did have the guts to do it himself.

In the crazy Bizarro universe of Trump,
Spicer: You Can Trust Whatever Trump Says 'If He's Not Joking'

1.Trump made a completely false and possibly libelous claim without evidence.
2. He demanded an investigation (into nothing)

and now his minions are

1) claiming there must be something there because "there's an investigation into it"
and
2) claiming he never really meant it in the first place.

Or what? What does he have to fear? Liberals need no evidence for their claims, why does he?

ummm.... because it's not only bullshit but libel?

What do I win?

Like I said there's plenty of evidence, many many articles by NY Times and WAPO alluding to confidential sources that claim wiretapping. Look it up, dipweed.

Now the fake news is not fake because they said the word wiretap before so that means Trump tower was wiretapped. See how that works?

well it was tapped ask flynn.

I'm asking you.

Good thing Obama just had a really long, relaxing vacation. All he did was roll his eyes.

Here is your support for lying.

A president should not behave like that. The president's words carry a lot of weight world wide. Things like that diminish his presidency and his credibility.

Kind of like that quote: with great power comes great responsibility

Yet it's OK to tell bold faced lies about our health insurance or red lines in Syria? Selective outrage gets a big yawn from me.

There's a difference between baseless allegations directed at others, that are easily refuted - and what you call "lies" from politicians.

Did he lie about health insurance? Shade the truth? Or, did he state what he believed at the time? In fact, none of it was an out an out lie - many people did get to keep their plan or their insurance provided them with a new one. It's a complicated issue and you can legitimately argue the truth and veracity from both sides.

But Trump accusing a former president of a felony with ZERO evidence goes way beyond that. In fact, I'm willing to bet if Obama had done that you wouldn't be so blaise.

At what point do you stop defending the indefensible and start saying WTF when Trump comes up with these things?

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said today that Donald Trump did not mean the Trump Tower was wiretapped when he said it had been wiretapped.

"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. "The President used the word wiretaps in quotes to mean, broadly, surveillance and other activities."

Spicer: Trump didn't mean wiretapping when he tweeted about wiretapping - CNNPolitics.com

Translating Trump's words: "Congress asked me for evidence and I didn't have anything because I made it up, so I'm gonna say wiretap doesn't mean wiretap".

CNN = fake news

duh

Whataboutism!

Ask him to defend any position and the response will always be "what about this other thing?"

I guess Trump also said:

"Mexico will pay for the Wall"

and

"Lock her up"

In quotes, it's just make-believe !!!!!!!!!

Saying trump backed down is polite. Trump got *****-slapped and kicked in the balls.

James Okeefe has the goods on Obama....

"Lies" from politicians? How how you dismiss it? Words that effect my life in many ways mean nothing to you but Trump giving them the same treatment he got is an outrage.

We have different values.

But nothing rammed up his butt? Are you sure? Did you look closely enough?

Perfect thread to illustrate leftwing hypocrisy.
