So to answer your first question. Big FAT YES!
The US Government spying on foreign governments is not quite the same thing. Sort of what intelligence services do.

So he has not just suddenly been claiming he was spied upon...

But so far every accusation Obama 'spied' on him has actually been the FBI investigations people other than him on his campaign during the Russian hacking investigation.

There has been not a shred of evidence that:

1) Obama ordered the wiretapping or spying on the targets of the investigation itself

2) That Trump himself had his phoned tapped

What this has amounted to so far is the resentment that anyone close to Trump should be investigated for anything at all.

Proof?
