Goldstone(intel asset?) tries to lure Trump to Russia
The roots of the meeting go back all the way to July 2015, one month after Trump announced he was running for president. That month, Goldstone, who had first become acquainted with the Trumps through the Agalarovs and the Miss Universe Pageant in 2013, emailed Trump’s assistant asking whether Trump “would welcome a meeting with President Putin.” According to The Washington Post, “there is no indication that Trump or his assistant followed up on Goldstone’s offer,”
You replied on that same day, stating, in part, "I totally understand re: Moscow, unless maybe he would welcome meeting with President Putin , which Emin would set up."

WW Intel (14 eyes) started spying on Trump campaign from day 1
Even before American intelligence agencies began investigating the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, European intelligence agencies were sounding the alarm. According to The Guardian, European intelligence officials first intercepted communications between Trump associates and Russian operatives as early as August 2015. The intercepts were reportedly so concerning that the head of the British intelligence service Robert Hannigan passed the intelligence directly to CIA chief John Brennan.
Over the next several months, intelligence agencies in several countries, including the United Kingdom, Germany, Estonia, Poland, and Australia, passed information to the U.S. regarding interactions between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives. Though the precise nature of much of this intelligence remains unknown, the Australian intelligence may have concerned Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos’s drunken boast to the Australian ambassador to the United Kingdom regarding his conversations with the Maltese professor and alleged Russian operative Joseph Mifsud. Additionally, according to the BBC, in April 2016, “an intelligence agency of one of the Baltic States” provided Brennan with “a tape recording of a conversation about money from the Kremlin going into the US presidential campaign.”

Over the next six months, until summer 2016, a number of western agencies shared further information on contacts between Trump’s inner circle and Russians, sources said.
The European countries that passed on electronic intelligence – known as sigint – included Germany, Estonia and Poland. Australia, a member of the “Five Eyes” spying alliance that also includes the US, UK, Canada and New Zealand, also relayed material, one source said.
The alleged conversations were picked up by chance as part of routine surveillance of Russian intelligence assets.
According to one account, GCHQ’s then head, Robert Hannigan, passed material in summer 2016 to the CIA chief, John Brennan. The matter was deemed so sensitive it was handled at “director level”. After an initially slow start, Brennan used GCHQ information and intelligence from other partners to launch a major inter-agency investigation
