Quick question to everyone

Do you think Trump and his team were spied on?

Is the President expected to not be under surveillance, if there is suspicion of wrongdoing is there something to say he should not be investigated by the authorities?
 
Perfect example of damned if he does damned if he doesn't

USA is leading the way in terms of testing, obviously he's going to brag about the efficacy of the testing to show efforts are being made to control the virus. Asking why that's important "when people are still dying" is not journalism, it's not an attempt to draw out more information. It was a veiled attack designed to frame Trump as uncaring. Perfectly legitimate for Trump to refer her back to China who is ultimately responsible for deaths all over the world

Her feigned outrage doesn't make him racist as she quite clearly wanted to paint that picture of him, and his reaction was justified
First off all how can the USA be leading the way in testing while there is a shortage of tests and a large amount of broken tests which do not work. Trump is blaming Obama for that. How can the USA be leading the way while complaining about broken and missing tests? Just how many tests a day do you think the US is doing? Last time I looked the tests per population was pretty much one of the worst. The opposite to leading the way.

2nd Trump is uncaring from what I have seen. Where has he shown real sympathy or real caring about this situation? Every briefing I have watched and I have not watched them all Trump was praising himself, often praising himself for longer then he spends giving out useful information on the virus or showing any signs of caring/sympathy.

3rd Trump is massively handling the outbreak badly. Other counties that got the first official Virus infection on the same date as the US are now at a 90% reduction in new cases, a death rate that has almost gone back to zero and in comparison, to the US have low job losses and low economy damage. That is how a good response works. On the other side of the spectrum in the spot where bad responses are, we have the US.

The US who have had the same amount of time but are now going to break past 100k deaths which is double the death of what was predicted had Trump handled the situation correctly. Now it looks like the future death rate is going to break past 200k more than triple deaths over what was expected. Along with massive job losses and massive economy damage all of which cause have been massively reduced if not for Trump terrible handling of the situation.

There was always going to be death, job loss and economy damage but why is it so hard for you understand that Trumps has made all 3 much worse than was needed. Trump is directly responsible for that. Just like Trump is directly responsible for the missing and broken tests and medial supplies that never got restocked.

Posssibly (in some form - spying is a loose term), and likely for a good reason.

Good thing the FBI didnt publically announce that they were investigating him weeks before the election though isnt!. That might have really scuppered his chances....

Shh, Tang0 is only interested in per capita figures when it's deflecting from the US's deaths figures being the worst in the world, of course absolute numbers of testing should be used when trying to deflect from something else!

Of course he was spied on that's old news. Some people who where being monitored for expected crimes where as I understand it legally wire tapped. When Trump rang them up he was caught on the wiretap hence spied on even though it wasn't aimed at Trump. Its just that Trump has a lot of criminal and corrupt friends.
 
Yeah not sure why she made it about race. Pretty pathetic that a president walks out after an altercation with some reporters over a ‘nasty question’ though. For someone who constantly brags about how tough he is, he sure does run off a lot.

Well, whilst i don't think his China comment yesterday was necessarily directed to her for being of Asian descent, i can totally appreciate her feelings on the matter and why she asked him/confonted him.

This after all is the same reporter who had the virus referred to as "kung Flu" in front of her:


Also, his reply was a complete non sequitur. It made no logical sense in response to her question.

Why are you asking this? If it's to open a reasoned discussion then let us know. Sadly I suspect we all expect it to be for some hocus pocus magic smoke & mirrors act again.

Spied makes it sound like a nefarious act when it wasn't, do i think Trump and his team were investigated for links to foreign governments and/or anything that endanger America and its citizens, damn right i do and rightly so to, anyone running for the highest office in the land, arguably in the world (although not so much of late), should be thoroughly investigated. You'd hope something like that was done long before they even come close to high office to be frank but as Trump had little or no political background the security services probably took little notice of him.

Pretty much why I put it there and last time I looked the the US had moved into the top 10 deaths per capita and was slowing working its way up.
 
Huh?

You are the one that seems to think all research has stopped, i'm the one that said NIH funding has increased, and i'm the one thats saying that there will be many more people other than that guy doing research. I'd hazard a guess that the US government will have info that we are not privy to, like you said, Trump increased his funding last year, so its obviously nothing to do with being anti-science, there is obviously something going on regarding that Wuhan lab which the government are cautious to fund. Constant outrage culture is getting tiresome.

Oh you are getting boring now. Who cares about the NIH? Who even mentioned it other than you again and again? You keep banging on about it like it makes you right. You replied to a post, you were wrong because you didn't watch the video or read the article and now you are desperate to save face. Just let it go and move on as you look more foolish the longer you drag this out. No one said there wasn't other research, however this research is going on exactly where the virus is jumping from bats to other animals. It was ended because Fox News ran a CT piece and of course Trump jumped on it. What is going on at the Wuhan lab? Come on lets hear your CT that you have based on what exactly? This company was from the US but they are working against thew US are they, with the Chinese. You are the one outraged, probably at yourself in this case for being a fool and yes you are tiresome.
 
Was just checking, as I can clearly remember people saying it was a right wing conspiracy, now it’s changed to it was legally predicated

We’re going to find out soon that Flynn was the target of surveillance and probably without a legal basis, and everyone around him were unmasked

Think we’re also going to find out that it went far beyond Trump and team that were spied on, other political “enemies” like Nunes, Cruz and journos like Hannity, Soloman were targeted too
