What was mostly on GWB's watch? The parent doesn't imply that Obama was president when events in the article took place. Also; Trump 2016. Make America Great

  I can't tell if that's a sarcastic Trump endorsement since he's one of the few candidates pledging to expand the surveillance state.. Trump said his position in favor of the NSA data collection had been the same since before last month's terrorist attacks in Paris, which stoked fears of international terrorism and revived debate over government surveillance measures. "I assume when I pick up my telephone people are listening to my conversations anyway, if you want to know the truth," Trump told Hewitt. "It's a pretty sad commentary." [..] Trump said Tuesday that he would be "fine" with restoring provisions of the Patriot Act to allow for the bulk data collection, something candidates such as former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush have also called for that was banned with the passage of the USA Freedom Act, which Cruz supported. "As far as I'm concerned, that would be fine," Trump said. http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/261673-trump-sides-with-rubio-over-cruz-in-nsa-surveillance http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/26167...
