British intelligence has blasted as “nonsense” an accusation leveled by White House spokesman Sean Spicer that former President Barack Obama used U.K. spies to wiretap Donald Trump.
Spicer’s comments were surprising and risked antagonizing a key American ally.
British Member of Parliament Tim Farron blasted Spicer’s comments as “shameful.” Trump is “compromising the vital UK-US security relationship to try to cover his own embarrassment ,” the Liberal Democrat leader told The Telegraph. “This harms our and U.S. security.”
Go ahead and burn bridges Rump, and see where that will leads us.
Trump claimed today that he is not an isolationist, yet every one of his other statements and promises concerning trade and foreign policy gives the lie to that. I honestly don't know if he is even capable of telling the truth.
When they had their first photo op of the day this morning a reporter asked Trump and Merkel if they were going to shake hands for the camera. Merkel asked Trump if they should shake hands and Trump ignored her, even though it was extremely obvious that he had heard both the reporter and the question from Merkel. He is an embarrassment to America. A boorish clown. His rudeness knows no bounds. If it were Putin there he'd drop to his knees and and suck his...well....toes....yeah....uh....toes...
He is pissing off one ally after another, yet embracing the biggest threat to America, Vladimir Putin. He is the most un-American and anti-American person ever to sit in the White House, including visitors from other countries.
The White House is already trying to cover their ass on that accusation.
Pretty typical of the ''foot in the mouth gang''.

Also the Brits are still pissed and are upset that the White House has not apologized. As well they should be.
No. 10 has been assured by Mr Spicer he would not repeat the claims, which he cited from US TV channel Fox News.
Former foreign secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind said it was not enough to promise not to repeat the allegation.
"That's not the same as saying it was rubbish in the first place," he told the BBC.

I hadn't heard that yet, so had to go look.
He is an idiot...
