The question was
Did the Russians collude with Trump or people in his team
To check this, Obama ordered elaborate set of wiretaps against key T officials. The most prominent were Paul Manafort, former campaign manager and Michael Flynn, the soon to be national security advisor

This ultimately also lead to the the high level Mueller probe, whether Trump himself was involved

HOMELAND much!
