My guess is that his thought process went something like this.

    1. The government is spying on people in some technological way that at first blush I don't understand.

    2. This must mean the telephone, because that's the technological way that I understand, and I understand everything.

    3. I am super important.

    4. Ergo, the government must have been spying on me.

    5. I'm the most important person in the government.

    6. Before I was here, the person in this same office was Obama.

    7. Ergo, it was Obama's decision to do this.

    8. QED (read: TO TWITTER).
