So what are the odds Trump has been monitored or bugged? [View all]

I think they are pretty high. Remember that he refused to use a secure phone and wanted to keep his unsecure phone? Why? For Twitter? He strikes me as just the sort of dunce who would think his phone would protect him when he made contact with Russia.

If the FBI has managed to identify his network, then the five eyes network COULD have spied on him. They would, in turn, share with the NSA and through the, the FBI.
