LOL, no there wasn't, the person was no spy it was a person on trumps own staff.
What is your source for that?
What the NYT, and WaPo were reporting is that it wasn't Trump's staff, it was a person that has a long history of working with the FBI, and CIA (Stefan Halper).

This was released earlier this week and I have mentioned it a couple of times in threads.
It doesn't seem to bother Trump supporters at all.
For me -- the fear of being caught in a lie suggests that Trump may have something to lie about. I always thought there was nothing to lie about it. I guess there is more to it than I thought.
His supporters don't care about his lies. On another post, sometime brought up the over three thousand lies. The supporter's response was like, meh, look at how he has fulfilled his campaign promises.
”Truth is relative.” Rudy Giuliani articulates the Trump credo in three words. I'm old enough to remember when conservatives/Republicans argued against those who espoused relativism. Now they embrace it. The corrupting effects of Trump are boundless.

Republican Senator Marco Rubio, who sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee, explained in an "acid-etched interview "that he has seen “no evidence” that the FBI spied on the Trump campaign.
“What I have seen is evidence that they were investigating individuals with a history of links to Russia that were concerning,”
“It appears that there was an investigation not of the campaign, but of certain individuals who have a history that we should be suspicious of, that predate the presidential campaign of 2015, 2016. And when individuals like that are in the orbit of a major political campaign in America, the FBI, who is in charge of counterintelligence investigations, should look at people like that.”

There is no denying that there was widespread surveillance of the Trump campaign, not just some individuals.
There is no doubt that when all the information comes out we will learn that they were capturing every communication of the Trump campaign, including every detail of the daily operation of the campaign.
The Obama administration leaked highly classified information to undermine Trump, there is ever reason to believe that there were giving details of the Trump campaign to Hillary.

That simply, is not true, no matter how many times you say it.
As for “the Deep State” that is supposedly undermining Trump:
General Michael Hayden on whether a “Deep State”actually exists:
Quote:
”Not in the United States. I understand the term, I’ve seen it elsewhere, Turkey comes to mind. Pakistan comes to mind. There is not a Deep State. And look, I get it, I’ve tried to change federal bureaucracies. It’s really hard to do. There’s opposition, all right? But that’s the human condition, not secret anti-democratic forces plotting against the will of the people. That which some in the administration call the Deep State? I refer to as career professionals doing their best under the rule of law.”
