And "yes"...wiretapping has ALWAYS been slang for surveillance in general. It was the way that the FBI took down the mafia and was used in movie after movie and news report after news report since the day the first phone was ever "tapped" because all phones were land lines.

Trump is 70 years old. He speaks in language that was used for the majority of his lifetime.
So do I.

No, teenagers and young 20 somethings would never call it "wire tapping" because they don't use anything with "wires".

But I immediately understood it as did millions of other people.
And those "reporters" know it damn well too.

No matter how you want to parse words or spin it...Trump was being SPIED on by the Feds. That's the fact. And Trump revealed that in his Tweet and the media instantly proclaimed him to be wrong.
Just like they have over so many other things he has said...and he just keeps making them look dumb.
No the fuck they did not lie, quit Making bullshit claims. They were asked if Trump was being wire tapped. He wasn't being wiretapped.

They have even said "Tump" as being the unmarked person. They specifically said it was people in Trump's transition team and they were not the target of any wire tap but rather were recorded because they talked to someone who was the target...

You "hear" what "you" want to hear..
