Predsjednik Donald Trump ostaje u ofenzivi oko nove priče koja govori da je FBI Baracka Obame ubacio špijune unutar Trumpove kampanje tijekom predsjedničkih izbora 2016., govoreći da bi to “mogao biti jedan od najvećih političkih skandala u povijesti!”.
SPYGATE could be one of the biggest political scandals in history!

U seriji kasnonoćnih i ranojutarnjih objava na Twitteru, Trump je rekao da ubačeni agenti FBI-a “nikada nisu prijavili dosluh s Rusijom” i da su “bili tamo da špijuniraju iz političkih razloga”. Trump je također naveo “naizgled ogromnu količinu novca” koji je plaćen špijunu.
If the person placed very early into my campaign wasn’t a SPY put there by the previous Administration for political purposes, how come such a seemingly massive amount of money was paid for services rendered – many times higher than normal…

…Follow the money! The spy was there early in the campaign and yet never reported Collusion with Russia, because there was no Collusion. He was only there to spy for political reasons and to help Crooked Hillary win – just like they did to Bernie Sanders, who got duped!

Trump je rekao da više nakon godinu dana istraživanja navodnom dosluha kampanje s Rusima, sve što je otkriveno je “deep state” skandal.
Look how things have turned around on the Criminal Deep State. They go after Phony Collusion with Russia, a made up Scam, and end up getting caught in a major SPY scandal the likes of which this country may never have seen before! What goes around, comes around!

“Trump should be happy that the FBI was SPYING on his campaign” No, James Clapper, I am not happy. Spying on a campaign would be illegal, and a scandal to boot!

Trump je u utorak odgovarao na pitanja novinara i ponovno izrazio bijes zbog činjenice da je FBU špijunirao njegovu kampanju.
“Mnogo ljudi govori da je bilo špijuna u mojoj kampanji. Ako ih je bilo, to je sramota za ovu državu”, rekao je Trump okupljenim novinarima u Bijeloj kući. “To bi bila jedna od najvećih uvreda koju je ikada netko vidio i, osim toga, bilo bi protuzakonito. Vjerojatno bi svaki prošli politički skandal izgledao poput malog krumpira u usporedbi s ovim.”
