CNN’s James Clapper has finally let the cat out of the bag. There were more than one spy in the Trump campaign of 2016. It wasn’t just Stefan Halper, but who knows how many others. Anyone want to guess how many spies were in the campaign? Anyone want to guess names?

Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper declined to rule out whether intelligence agencies sent additional informants to spy on members of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
“Well, there could have been,” he said when asked by CNN host Jake Tapper on Wednesday about the possibility of other informants. “Never say never, but I’m not aware.”Clapper has stated that he does not like to use the term “spy” to refer to civilian informants for intelligence agencies.
The idea of additional spies was first raised by former Trump campaign advisor Michael Caputo in an interview on Fox News, reacting to the revelation of the identity of FBI informant Stefan Halper, who spied on Trump campaign advisors.
“He’s not the only person that came at the campaign and the FBI is not the only Obama agency that came at the campaign,” Caputo said.
