Day 44 of 100


In a morning tweetstorm, Trump accuses then-president Barack Obama of wiretapping him at Trump Tower prior to the November election: "Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my 'wires tapped' in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!" the president tweets. An Obama spokesman rejects the accusation as "simply false." Meanwhile, thousands of Trump supporters convene near Trump Tower and in other cities around the U.S. in what organizers bill as "March 4 Trump" demonstrations on behalf of the president.
