Trump said Thursday that he "absolutely" believes there was "unprecedented" spying on his campaign in 2016, a day after Attorney General William Barr made the assertion during testimony on Capitol Hill.
"I think what he said was absolutely true," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office during a meeting with the South Korean president.
"There was absolutely spying into my campaign," he continued. "Ill go a step further. In my opinion it was illegal spying, unprecedented spying and something that should never be allowed to happen in our country again."
The president on Thursday reiterated his call for a probe into the origins of the investigation of his 2016 campaign, calling the alleged surveillance "treason" and suggesting it would be a "disservice to our country" not to look into his claims.

(1,588 posts)Why do you say Trump seizes on Barr's "spying" remark? Barr was agreeing with him. How is this getting twisted around so fast that the accusation of "spying" is coming from Barr? This is getting out of hand.
