I) Think of the ideas, opinions or issues involved in this article you have read.

In my opinion i believe this issue to be a very major issue because of the effects it my have had on Donald Trumps campaign.Although, Donald Trump was elected president of the United States many people were not happy with him being elected.For Donald Trumps team being in contact with the Russians before his campaign could give Hilary or non Donald Trump voters a reason for him being elected.Donald Trumps team being in contact with the Russians was said to have something to do with 'sabotaging' Hilary Clinton's campaign. I do not understand why this information is not effecting Donald Trump as he is now the President Of The united States.Was there not enough proof or evidence for this to be true? And if this was to be true can this effect Donald Trump as president and give justice to Hilary.
'Four current and former US officials told the New York Times'
This conveys how this information is probably true due to coming from a quite high and reliable sources.In my opinion this should be enough evidence to investigate if the campaign between Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton was fair.  What I found interesting was they have more than enough evidence such as 'they had intercepted phone records and phone calls and had found evidence of the repeated communications last year'. I did not understand why this information was not told earlier but after Donald Trump was elected.
'They discovered that Russia had carried out a "campaign of influence" upon the election, posting fake news to sabotage Hillary Clinton's candidacy.'
This clearly shows this was in order for Donald Trump to be elected president and ruin Hilary's Campaign.
'US intelligence officials also did not say how much of the communication with Russia was related to business.' This goes to show how he cma
