Valid point.
"It's been said" that such connections between a political campaign and a foreign country would be common. Did Micheal Flynn call the ambassador from China during the campaign? During the transition period? What about our closest ally, the United Kingdom? France? Germany? Canada? Mexico? No. ALL of the connections were with Russia.
Did Erik Prince hold secret meetings on tropical islands with anyone from China? Why not?
All the Trump Administration did was done in secret, and all with Russia. All they had to do was pick up the phone and call the State Department and say "I want to meet with the Russian ambassador". Perfectly legal, perfectly acceptable, and easy to understand. They intentionally avoided the State Department, and continue to do so:

Why?
The State Department does not decide policy; It advises the president. They work for the President. Trump seems to believe himself and a handful of close advisers can handle foreign policy. They can't. There are nearly two hundred different countries, all with their own little problems, wants, and needs. Four people cannot manage this.
Why is our government suddenly doing things in secret?
