    I wouldn't put it past him to be so inarticulate and egotistical that he meant "Somebody associated with me, Donald Trump, who built the beautiful Trump Tower, which has the best phones."

    Stop trying to confuse them with nuanced facts.

    Check the dates. Manafort was not a part of the campaign when the wiretap was re-initiated. Clapper's statement is not incorrect.

    Read those tweets

    notice a trend? Trump Campaign

    Manafort falls under the umbrella at this time of the Trump campaign, since he was essentially leading the Trump campaign team

    This is a good question if the "Clairvoyant Trump was right... yay" crowd's theory is actually right-

    I would be hypocrite if I believed a CNN report without question so I hope more comes out. If it is true, it is very disturbing because so many important folks denied it before.

    As much as I dislike CNN, it's good to see that they can be accurate like in all of the headlines you posted.

    Only to someone who is so confused on the subject that they think that Manafort being surveilled under a FISA warrant is equivalent to Obama wiretapping Trump Tower.
