Donald Trump accuses Barack Obama of phone tapping him
The Republican tweeted that the former US president had tapped his phones during the election before likening it to Nixon and Watergate and calling the Democrat a ‘bad (or sick) guy’.
In subsequent tweets set between 3am and 4am in the morning, he also claimed the tapping took place in October before the November 8 election.
In the first he wrote: ‘Terrible! Just found out Obama had my “wires tapped” in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!’
In a later tweet he added: ‘How low has President Obama gone to tapp [sic] my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!’
Despite making the claims, the president has provided no further information to substantiate his claims.
It is also not clear what information the tweet could have been based on.
