    Maybe it will, but even if the Clinton's, Obama, Blair etc are as guilty as you claim they are, it doesn't alter the fact that it's been amateur hour all day, every day in the White House since Inauguration Day..

    Well, it's kinda interesting that a secretive organisation who never admit or deny anything, take an unprecedented step and make an exception for Trump. Personally, I think there is still lot's of milage left in this hacking story, it could rumble on for years.

    You find it odd?!
    Has GCHQ ever been publically called out in the international media and accused - by the Whitehouse! - of Election interference by way of phone tapping before?
    I don't think so. So perhaps it is pretty easy to imagine why, in this apparently unprecedented event, they took an apparently unprecedented step.

    I do agree that there is likely plenty more mileage in all of this.
    Whether that mileage leads to the path of enlightenment or up the garden path, we may find out as we plod along.

    There's a ding-dong going on between Trump and some of the American IC. There appears to be forces at play who are desperately trying to remove Trump from office. Meanwhile the DoJ are quite busy also. It's all getting very JFK-ish.

    It was Donald's MSM 'safe-hands' Fox that ran with the story.

    It's a mess, disinformation everywhere, traps being set, etc. I don't even think it's really started yet, these are only the preliminaries.

    After the latest press conference, it looks as though Trump inadertantly got our boys to break with protocol and directly deny a Fox News story!

    And if they hadn't issued a response, would you now be taking the GCHQ side? I doubt it. So, effectively, they are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

    They issued a statement because, for the first time EVER, the UK's major ally, the UK's major trading partner, the UK's main defence co-operator etc etc... has accused the UK of tapping into their President. That is major stuff.

    Trump and his team spend too much time watching tabloid/cable news. Does he do any work at all?

    An interesting story that, if Fox ever did a documentary (yeah, right!) on it would have Trump searching for the little red button.

    Trump or the US government haven't accused anybody of anything, it was a guest on Fox TV News! What has happened is that somebody has jumped the gun, so a more pertinent question to ask would be why?
