President Trump told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that Barack Obama must have known about the efforts to prevent him from winning the 2016 election.

“There was no crime. There was no collusion. The big thing’s collusion. Now, there’s no collusion,” Trump told Stephanopoulos in an interview that aired Sunday. “That means they set — it was a setup, in my opinion, and I think it’s gonna come out,” Trump said slamming FBI lovebirds Peter Strzok and Lisa Page over their “insurance policy.”

Stephanopoulos asked Trump if he thought Obama was involved in Spygate.

“You clearly believe that there was a group of people working against you. Do you think President Obama was behind it?” Stephanopoulos asked Trump.

“I would say that he certainly must have known about it because it went very high up in the chain but you’re gonna find that out. I’m not gonna make that statement quite yet, but I would say President Obama had to know about it.”

Of course Barack Obama knew about the Spygate scandal. Obama wanted his third term (Hillary Clinton) and didn’t want anyone to know about his 8 year crime spree in the White House.

Just weeks before Donald Trump’s inauguration in January of 2017, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Susan Rice, James Comey, Clapper all met in the Oval Office and discussed the phony Steele dossier.

The very next day then-FBI Director James Comey traveled to Trump Tower New York to brief Trump on the salacious parts of the dossier and lied to Trump and told him he had nothing to worry about.

Trump is right. Barack Obama had to have known about the Spygate scandal.
