"Trump falsely accuses Obama of wiretapping his phone"

A little to the left and slightly out of focus.

On the unfortunate occasions when I hear Trump
speak, I often think..... I wonder what he means?
He's not one I take literally.
It's certainly tough to discern his meaning. Sometimes I wonder if he truly knows himself? Anyway, that is another topic.

Did I say you should believe Trump's claim?
The revelation that there were wiretaps just
appeared to give his claim possible merit.
Its public record FBI already having had surveillance there. You said it's an open question, he could be wrong, or IOW could be right? No because I won't give merit to just whatever millions of things I hear about Obama, birth certificates, Muslim affiliations, illegal wiretapping, it's all ridiculous until their is substantial evidence. Let's hear some more of Trumps private blunders lol.

Obama really did step in it though when he referred to his "Muslim faith"
during an interview. Millions of true believers were chortling, "See! I told you!".
It suddenly got more difficult to convince them he was just a Xian like them.

At least he didn't Freudian slip being atheist, then he really would have been under the noose.

Not even close. The wiretap reported by CNN was of Manafort, not Trump, not Trump Tower. The wiretap reported by CNN was ordered by the FISA court, not Obama, who doesn't have the power to order wiretaps. Obama almost certainly didn't know about about the order to wiretap Manafort. The wiretap of Manafort was authorized sometime between 2014 and early 2016 (Manafort Urges Justice Department to Release Any Wiretaps of Him), not "just before the victory," as Trump claimed.

Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory.​

While your bashing anti trumpets I went for the actual politician in question.
Ah, but you did not make that clear did you. One must watch what one writes must one. I sort of assumed you meant that, but just thought I would pull your chain.
