Lesley Stahl Is Wrong And Trump Is Right: The Obama Administration Spied On The Trump Campaign

Last week, President Trump's team released 38 minutes of unedited video capturing his contentious sit-down with Lesley Stahl of "60 Minutes." Sunday evening, CBS broadcast clips of the interview and amazingly let air proof of Trump's charge that the media is fake news: "60 Minutes" and Stahl falsely reported that it is "Unverified" that the Obama-Biden administration spied on Trump's campaign in 2016.

"60 Minutes" edited out those details of the Biden scandal, but let the television audience hear Trump say of it, "It's the biggest scan" before correcting himself, "The second biggest scandal. The biggest scandal was when they spied on my campaign." The next minutes continued with what would be a comic routine of "Did not," "Did too," did not," if the subject wasn't truly the biggest scandal in American political history.

" Stahl: "Sir." Trump: "They spied on my campaign and they got caught.

Stahl persisted: "No," but so did Trump: "You'll find out. It's been totally verified." "I wish you would interview Joe Biden like you interview me," President Trump says to Lesley Stahl.

Trump Is 100 Percent Correct Nearly a year ago, the 478-page report issued by Inspector General Michael Horowitz verified spying on the Trump campaign.

In questioning Page, Halper quizzed the foreign policy advisor on the Trump campaign's likely "October Surprise." From his acquaintance with Page, Halper moved on to questioning Sam Clovis, the 2016 national co-chair of Trump's campaign, under the guise of potentially helping the Trump team.

We also know Clovis shared Trump's desire not to "Do a traditional campaign," and Clovis also provided "Additional comments about the internal structure, organization, and functioning of the Trump campaign." Additionally, in the recorded conversation, Halper and Clovis discussed "An internal campaign debate about Trump's immigration strategy, efforts to reach out to minority groups and the impact of those efforts, and the campaign's strategies for responding to questions about Trump's decision not to release his tax returns." Halper was also tasked to question a third Trump campaign advisor, George Papadopoulos.
