trump has and does use imprecise language in his extemporaneous talks and tweets
people, at least those who care to understand, know this and know what he really means. He knows what he means.
I have, over the last several days, constantly heard in the news and from talking heads on tv, that trump has claimed that Obama ordered the wiretapping. even a few who were in essence saying the substance of trump's claim is correct, have misstated trump's claim.
no where has trump ever said Obama "ordered" it
when trump says obama in his tweets, he means the government under obama's reign
obama's spokesman's statement in response to trump's tweets uses misdirection as well. it states, neither president obama nor any white house official ever
ORDERED.........
trump never says obama ordered anything nor did he "suggest" it
Obama's spokesman doesn't say it never happened only that obama didn't order it, a response to a claim never made
now, is it believable that Loretta lynch or some other "agency" did order it? and that with a wink and a nod, Obama knew and approved? hell yeah. its not believable obama didnt know of it
the tweets and the response:
How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!

I'd bet a good lawyer could make a great case out of the fact that President Obama was tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!

"Neither President Obama nor any White House official ever ordered surveillance on any U.S. citizen. Any suggestion otherwise is simply false,"
