   No. As you can see from what you quoted below.

   NB: That's an allegation of spying on Trump, in Trump Tower.

   No, they are not.

   So, Trumps' associates were caught in collaboration with the evil   
   Ruskies. No doubt, a bit of SigInt, as it came from GCHQ. No bugging of   
   Trump Towers involved.   
      
   Your grasp of simple facts seems a bit tenuous.

   Do you have any evidence for ill-gotten? Any evidence for when this was   
   shared?
