President Trump threw Washington and the news media into a frenzy over the weekend with a series of tweets accusing the Obama administration of wiretapping Trump Tower ahead of the 2016 election.
Americans are divided over whether such a claim could be true.
A new Rasmussen Reports poll shows that while most Republican respondents are in agreement that the wiretapping could have taken place, Americans overall are split on the issue.
Did Obama Wiretap Trump? Voters React
The 50-50 nation marches on. Republicans and Trump supporters in general strongly suspect that the Obama administration was wiretapping the Trump campaign last year; Democrats and Trump opponents strongly disagree. While the director of the FBI has reportedly disputed President Trump’s wiretapping claim, a lot of voters are wondering about the FBI’s impartiality.
