10. Mr. 17 Intelligence Operations used Fox's Napolitano as an excuse.

President Trump on Friday praised Judge Andrew Napolitano in a joint press conference with German chancellor Angela Merkel, days after the Fox News commentator claimed a British intelligence agency had spied on the president at former President Barack Obama's behest.

“We said nothing,” Trump said when asked about Napolitano’s claims regarding the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ). "I didn’t make an opinion on it.”

“All we did was quote a certain very talented legal mind who was the one responsible for saying that on television,” Trump said.


“That was a statement made by a very talented lawyer on Fox [News]. And so you shouldn’t be talking to me, you should be talking to Fox.”
But Fox News host Shepard Smith denied on Friday that his network has information validating Napolitano and Trump’s claims after the president’s remarks.

12. Sean Spicer quoted Fox' Napolitano yday that British were wire tapping Trump

In a lame attempt to explain Trump's Obama wire tapping tweets. British intel people get pissed. Call it Bullshit. Spicer forced to call them early this morning and apologize. (Only now, later today Spicer is saying he didnt apologize to British intel for lying about them)

Then at Todays Presser, Donald himself said, "We (him and his people) didnt say that British intel wire tapped Trump. Said widely respected Fox lawyer did."

In essence Trump and Spicer keep digging themselves into a deeper hole on this. Its now an INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT. AndTeam Trump looks even more foolish today than they did yday.
