Trump's Latest Distraction

[Autumnlicious]

If he or his Whitehouse did not order it, then how can he have wiretapped Trump?

Seems like Jon has lent credibility to it not being an Obama plot, which really is the core of Trump's allegation.

Maybe he should find someone more plausible to blame.

‘This is what happens when a target gets buggy’: Analyst says Trump rant about ‘tapping’ is a sign he’s guilty

Dumb-ass motherfucker has been caught.

[vorlon13]

To get a judge to sign off on a wire tapping warrant, there would be some evidence of skullduggery going on in Trump Tower that was presented to the judge that triggered the warrant.

I'm surprised team Trump is copping to this.

Funny.  That's just what Congressman Lieu said.

‘You’re in deep sh*t’: Lawmaker alerts Trump if phones were ‘tapped’ a judge found ‘probable cause of crime’

[ignoramus]

I wouldn't be surprised to discover Trumps phones were tapped. The disctinction is that Obama didn't do it. It's like he only thinks people like Obama and Hillary do things. The rest of the humans are like toes,  or fingers, or liver cells. Not independent. It also explains why he says things like "nobody knew healthcare was so complicated". He really struggles with the idea that other people are creatures with different thoughts than his.

It's a distraction for sure, but I don't think its intentional. He really thinks Obama and Hillary hired the protestors, that Obama personally ordered his phones tapped, that Obama ordered aids that are still in the white house to leak stuff. The protesters and staffers aren't people with their own thoughts, ideas and actions, they are just extensions of real people, you know, the powerful and important ones, like himself or Obama.

I don't believe he's like that at all.
He's a lot more conniving and evil than that....
It's the face he puts on to keep his alien probed peons supporting him.
If the world is not careful, he could very well be the next Hitler.
From memory, the charismatic Hitler had 77% of the support of the German public.
He gained their trust, and they trusted him all the way.
The Trupmster is acting in an eerily similar fashion....

Until it's too late....

And recall the Meese Dictum*:

If you're arrested/indicted/or the subject of a warrant, you are probably guilty


*Ed Meese was the low wattage AG under President Reagan.  I've updated his dictum a tad.  Sue me.

Certainly, its difficult to say for certain.
Personally, it seems to me that he possesses a low animal cunning, an instinct for distraction and manipulation. I dont think it's the brilliant kind you are attributing to him, however. He is no Hitler. Now Steve Bannon, otoh......

His main sources of news are right wing conspiracy sites. Alex Jones, ffs!

What i think is that smart folks on the right have been manipulating certain vulnerable groups, using certain built in biases and information filtering, to think there is a secret world shadow government. This seems to have worked on @20% of the adult population.
Then they took one of those sheep they had made, one with charisma, pers9nality, money and power, but not much brains so hed be easily manipulated, and backed his rise to power.

Trump really is a puppet. Hes utterly dangerous all by himself, but as the face of this large conspiracy movement, his threat to everyone cannot be understated.

Anybody that can't see this man has serious mental issues probably has them too.

To compare people with mental issues to Trump is an insult to people with with mental issues.

I thought the FBI were investigating Trump's connection to Russia? It's not unreasonable for him to think his phones were tapped, but he is just making himself look even more crazy by blaming Obama for it.

It gets even more interesting with this tweet earlier from Obama's former speecwriter, Jon Favreau...

I'd be careful about reporting that Obama said there was no wiretapping. Statement just said that neither he nor the WH ordered it.

I'll wait and see if there's anything to it, first.

Holy crap you're retarded.

And so the cult of Trump goes full Alex Jones

As I understand it, the President has no authority to order a wiretap. It Trump's phones were tapped, it would have to have been done under a warrant requested by law enforcement.

Is that right?
