Trump is certain he will be proven right over his allegations that the Obama administration ordered a wire-tap on Trump Tower, according to one of his golfing buddies.

The President made the allegations over Twitter on Saturday, adding yet another twist to an election already known as one of the dirtiest of all time.

Questions have been raised over the validity of the claims, but friend and confidant Chris Ruddy said that Trump told him at the weekend that he will be 'proven right'.

Chris Ruddy, pictured with Donald Trump, claims that he met the President at Mar-a-Lago. Trump told him he was certain he would be 'proven right' on allegations that Obama's administration ordered a wire-tap on Trump Tower, Ruddy claims

Trump accused Barack Obama of wire-tapping his phones at Trump Tower in New York before the election last year, which was already marred by claims of Russian interference

Ruddy, CEO of conservative news websiteNewsmax, said: 'I spoke with the President twice yesterday about the wiretap story. I haven’t seen him this p****d off in a long time. When I mentioned Obama “denials” about the wiretaps, he shot back: "This will be investigated, it will all come out. I will be proven right".'

Ruddy, who spoke to Trump at his golf resort in Mar-a-Lago, Florida over the weekend, also talked of his shock that the unprecedented step was not lampooned by the national press.

He added: 'Instead the press focused on the rather narrow denial that Obama himself never ordered such a wiretap. Wouldn’t it strain belief that a major presidential candidate’s offices were wiretapped and the president was never informed?'

CNN reporter Brian Stelter said Ruddy admitted that Trump did not disclose his sources when he talked of the wire tap.

Since the allegation, FBI Director James Comey has allegedly called on the Justice Department to publicly refute the claims that he believes falsely insinuate that the FBI broke the law.

His supposed call for action was only revealed by senior US officials talking to the New York Times and Trump aide Kellyanne Conway has now called on Comey to speak on the record if he wishes to discredit the President.

Trump's explosive claims come at a time when he is said to be frustrated with the early days of his presidency, compared to Obama's, a close adviser told the Washington Post.

In the midst of a massive recession, Obama enacted a financial stimulus bill, as well as other massive bills that were passed by the House.

By contrast, Trump has faced heavy opposition and a court defeat over his executive order to ban nationals from a number of countries from entering the US.

The policy, which has faced international criticism, was blocked by a federal appeals court and his administration is now making new plans in order to re-enact it.

Another flagship policy, one of his key issues during the election race, is the reversal of Obamacare, which will be his staff's main priority.

The wiretap allegations could distract from Trump's early opposition, as well as allegations that he colluded with the Russians to win the election, which have marred his tenure so far.

A declassified intelligence report concluded that Russia interfered with the election, with the aim of undermining faith in the democratic process, and a clear preference for Trump.

But Trump has dismissed the report, ordered by President Obama, as a reaction to their unexpected election loss.

In response to the wire-tapping allegations, James Clapper, Obama's Director of Intelligence, denied that they ordered a wire-tap, but also admitted there was no evidence Trump had colluded with the Russians.

Ruddy, who saw the Clapper interview on Meet The Press, also criticized light media coverage of the president's wire-tapping allegations compared to constant comment on the Russian collusion claims.

He added: 'Despite Clapper and others saying there is no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion, the media is continually trying to create such a narrative.'

Ruddy is no stranger to commenting on policy and last month criticized White House chief of staff Reince Priebus after a rocky first three weeks in office.

The comments came after a meeting with Trump, leading to speculation that they reflected the President's own concerns.

But within days Ruddy was again praising the White House operation after meetings with the President and his son-in-law Jared Kushner.
