White House press secretary Sean Spicer said on Tuesday that President Donald Trump is “extremely confident” an investigation will “vindicate” his unsubstantiated claims that President Barack Obama “wiretapped” his phone lines at Trump Tower.
“I think he’s extremely confident,” Spicer said at his daily briefing. “I’ll let the House and Senate and I’ll let the DOJ report this.”
He claimed there was “significant reporting about surveillance techniques” that “existed throughout the 2016 election.”
“I’ll leave it to them to issue their report,” Spicer said. “But I think he feels very confident that will ultimately come to this, will vindicate him.”
Asked about the allegations during his press briefing on Monday, Spicer said that Trump cited news reports in a conversation the two had about Trump’s initial tweets airing the unsubstantiated claim.
Later Monday afternoon, the Department of Justice told the House Intelligence Committee that the department needed more time to respond to the committee’s request for any evidence supporting Trump’s claim.
Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC), the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said the same day that he received a “sufficient” response from the Trump administration about the President’s allegations.
However, he did not say whether that evidence supported Trump’s claims.
Yeah, well, no.
He’ll be vindicated just as soon as they get done fabricating the “truth”…
Trump is also confident that his shit doesn’t stink.
It will turn out to be the microwave they use in Trump Tower to heat up the frozen Taco Bowls made in China.
