        out that Obama had my `wires tapped' in Trump Tower just before

        on March 4, 2017, at 3:52 a.m.: ``I'd bet a good lawyer could 
        make a great case out of the fact that President Obama was 
        tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!''.

        gone to tapp [sic] my phones during the very sacred election 
        process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!''.
