JUST IN: Trump accuses Obama of wiretapping Trump Tower during the election

President Trump accused his predecessor, Barack Obama, of wiretapping Trump Tower during the campaign in October, in a series of tweets Saturday morning

"Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!", Trump first tweeted. Then the president sent out a tweet about the 22 times the Russian ambassador reportedly visited the White House, including four times last year.

Obama, the 44th president, left the White House in January. He has supported and campaigned for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Trump's next tweet compared the "scarry" wiretap to the Watergate scandal that led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon.

"How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!", Trump tweeted.
