May 23, 2018Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper appeared on “The View” Tuesday and uttered, quite possibly, the lamest take of all time.
He thinks Trump should be happy his campaign was spied on. ‘Cause you see, no one was spying on him or his people. They were looking out for meddling Russians. Duh!
“With the informant business, well, the point here is the Russians,” Clapper said. “Not spying on the campaign but what are the Russians doing? And in a sense, unfortunately, what they were trying to do is protect our political system and protect the campaign.”
Since we’re on the subject, why weren’t they interested in what the Russians were doing with the DNC and Hillary Clinton campaign as well?
“But the FBI started to look into Trump’s ties to Russia in the summer of 2016. Trump tweeted that this spring — this spying, rather, this spying that he claims is spying, other people say it’s a whistleblower or informant. He says it’s spying, it’s bigger than Watergate. So I ask you, was the FBI spying on Trump’s campaign?” Joy Behar asked.
“No, they were not,” Clapper said. “They were spying on, a term I don’t particularly like, but on what the Russians were doing. Trying to understand were the Russians infiltrating, trying to gain access, trying to gain leverage or influence which is what they do.”
See? They definitely weren’t spying on Trump. They just wanted to know what the Russians were doing.
“Well, why doesn’t like that? He should be happy,” Behar said.
“He should be,” Clapper said.
These people are so thick.
Trump responded.
If the person placed very early into my campaign wasn’t a SPY put there by the previous Administration for political purposes, how come such a seemingly massive amount of money was paid for services rendered – many times higher than normal…

…Follow the money! The spy was there early in the campaign and yet never reported Collusion with Russia, because there was no Collusion. He was only there to spy for political reasons and to help Crooked Hillary win – just like they did to Bernie Sanders, who got duped!

Look how things have turned around on the Criminal Deep State. They go after Phony Collusion with Russia, a made up Scam, and end up getting caught in a major SPY scandal the likes of which this country may never have seen before! What goes around, comes around!

He is NOT HAPPY Clapper.
“Trump should be happy that the FBI was SPYING on his campaign” No, James Clapper, I am not happy. Spying on a campaign would be illegal, and a scandal to boot!

SPYGATE could be one of the biggest political scandals in history!

Yep. That’s what we’re calling it now. SPYGATE.
