One of the requirements for a FISA court to authorize a wiretap...

Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978
(2) any person who—
(A) knowingly engages in clandestine intelligence gathering activities for or on behalf of a foreign power,...

Donald's presidency may be in peril, since a FISA court believed there to be credible information that met (past tense) a requirement for them to authorize surveillance of an individual or individuals in the tRump campaign.

1. Trump is too dumb to realize if he is being used.

And he is too dumb to realize that he might have admitted there was/is probable cause to tap is phone

[ffr]

2. I think he full well knows what he was and is doing. There's a difference

between being dumb about something and wishful thinking, coming from a man who's gotten away with 7 bankruptcies and who has pulled off the biggest election coup in history.

3. I see your point

It also can be that he has repeated the same thing so many times know believes his own lies.

4. couldn't they have been

surveilling the Russians? That's common practice....or is that only at embassies?

[ffr]

5. According to tRump himself

it was wiretapping at Trump Tower.

6. According to Trump, Obama was born in Kenya

There are lots of things Trump says that are less than accurate.

7. yeah but..

if the Russians staying at Trump towers were the targets, Trump would only be caught up in it by his conversations with them.
