Perhaps, but Trump is not exactly a strategic thinker, he’s going to demand that the Congressional investigation be made public, and once that happens, if the GOP is playing fast and loose with the facts, the Dems will be able to dump additional information.

Plus, let’s keep in mind, if it turns out there was a warrant (which there probably was), that means a court agreed with whoever was investigating that there was substantial evidence to support additional surveillance. If there’s something there, Trump is screwed. If there’s nothing there, he loses what little credibility he has. The only way that Trump “wins” on this, is if there is actual proof that the Obama Administration acted illegally; which is highly unlikely.

Think the 9/11 Commission, that farce of an investigation that the GOP ultimately used to absolve themselves of any guilt. You call for an investigation, then use and abuse the powers of your office to avoid as much actual investigation as possible. Remember that, during said commission, the GOP spent more time blaming the Clinton administration for the rise of Al-Q than it did looking into whether or not the Bush admin had dropped the ball.
