Obama Admin wiretapping Trump?

The $64,00 Question (as self evident as it seems):

If Donald Trump was not running for office; would he have still been tapped?

And HRC was not tapped yet she was leaked.

Who had more to hide, yet who was getting more attention?

See post #224

The question is really, "If Donald Trump was not running for office; would his collected SIGINT/ELINT still have been escalated?"

Recent, brief, Interview I heard with John McAfee brought up some interesting points regarding the attribution game being played with the DNC leaks/Podesta e-mails:

1) Russian state h4x0rs are so stupid that they left Cyrillic code behind.
2) Russian States h4x0rs are so stupid, they conducted the hacks during Moscow business hours.

I'm. Not. Buying. It. Either.

There are no accents on the internet.
I agree. It is bogus. They ain't leaving backwards Rs behind

I also have been told by a friend that works at the highest government level on cyber issues for an other country and he said it was not Russians hacking the DNC. But will not give more details as to who it really is.

Bro, I lost it at "backwards Rs".

Nunes: Trump transition members were under surveillance during Obama administration.


“I have seen intelligence reports that clearly show that the president-elect and his team were, I guess, at least monitored,” Nunes told reporters. “It looks to me like it was all legally collected, but it was essentially a lot of information on the president-elect and his transition team and what they were doing.”

Allegedly, if you're one of 300,000 iPhone users, your ass is being wiretapped by Hackers:

Update:

REPORTER: “Do you believe the President appropriately used the word 'wiretapping?' Was it used correctly in his tweets, based on the information that you have seen?”
NUNES: “I think the wiretapping, if you use it generally like the President has said, he clearly used it differently than what I think a lot of people took it which was did Obama actually wiretap the Trump Tower, which we know didn’t happen. I think the President has been pretty clear on that.”
REPORTER: “But the physical act of the wiretapping, do you see anything —“
NUNES: “No, and I said that on day two.”
REPORTER: “Can you rule out the possibility that senior Obama Administration officials were involved in this?”
NUNES: “No, I cannot.”

Nunes has some revelations about some details here that are making Trumps claims look a bit more legit.
