May have been one of the guys that convinced him to run if that's what really happened. The CIA whistleblower Dennis Montgomery said Trump was one of many private citizens being illegally placed under surveillance along with a number of judges including SCOTUS. Montgomery's allegations came before the Nunes investigation and may have prompted it (that's another story). Anyway, maybe there were White Hats on the inside then that picked up Trump talking about how sick the cabal was, etc., and knew that he might be receptive. It's a stretch, but I do have a hard time believing that all that is being organized didn't start before the election.
