Anna Czyzewski - FBI Refutes Trump's Wiretapping Claim

Summary: Recently, Trump claimed that two years ago, President Obama ordered a wiretapping of his phone. The FBI instead, asked the Justice Department to refute the allegations. For one, there was no evidence, and it is illegal for the President to order the wiretapping of a citizens phone, unless he brings it to court to be approved. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer had explained that the allegations were prompted by some type of "reports", but no evidence has surfaced. FBI representatives repeatedly clarified that no wiretapping took place.

Analysis: It's apparent that Trump is either delusional or scheming. Considering the enormous lack of evidence pertaining to this allegation, there is no way that this wiretapping could possibly happen. If there was an investigation, nothing would come up, the FBI would have wasted valuable time and effort that could've been spent working against Russia. Even after he has called so many reports "fake", he's making his own fake news up himself. False allegations have always been a tactic of bringing attention away for bigger and more important news.
