Washington – President Donald Trump says his White House shouldn’t be blamed for quoting a Fox News analyst who accused British intelligence of helping former President Barack Obama spy on him.

There is no evidence such spying took place and GCHQ, the British electronic intelligence agency, has called the allegation “utterly ridiculous.”
Trump says during a joint press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel that “we said nothing. All we did was quote a certain very talented legal mind who was the one responsible for saying that on television.”
He says, “you shouldn’t be talking to me, you should be talking to Fox.”
He’s also doubling down on his unproven wiretapping allegation with a reference to 2013 reports that the U.S. listened in on Merkel’s phone calls.
He says that when it comes to wiretapping, “At least we have something in common, perhaps.”
Trump is in urgent need of psychiatric examination and not to have his fingers on the atomic trigger , horrible
Trump ignorance. The German nachrichtendienst is quite efficient and would have prevented iit. Again Trump’s hallucinatiions
Look at Germany now with all the immigrants flooding and all that welfare money flowing out you think she is an efficient leader??? I think Germany is up to its neck in all phases of violence how would she even know?
Can all you Trumpsters and Trumpanzees see that the man is delusional and unfit to serve as POTUS. Imagine that if he has a fit and nukes a state or a foreign nation.
Strange posts here. As if the people commenting do not know about, or don’t believe, the documents leaked by Snowden. And Germany dropped investigating the issue in 2015, like how Israel always drops investigation the issue because the U.S. never, ever spies on the Israeli government, as that is all conspiracy theory.
