In the background CIA Director Brennan was running an international operation against peripheral figures within the Trump campaign since March. The goal was to create the appearances needed to generate surveillance, and launch the FBI counterintelligence operation.
Through the use of Five-Eyes allies in Australia and the U.K, by July 31st the Brennan op had successfully created suspicious appearances for Paul Manafort, George Papadopolous, Michael Flynn and Carter Page; Brennan turns the EC over to James Comey and Andrew McCabe. Crossfire Hurricane, led by FBI Agent Peter Strzok is off and running. Things are going according to plan.
I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andys office -that theres no way he gets elected- but Im afraid we cant take that risk. Its like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before youre 40.
Heres where Carter Page is about to come in; but first more context
Crossfire Hurricane is actually a surveillance operation and counterintelligence operation against the Trump campaign based on the originating EC from Brennan. Crossfire Hurricane is also part of the background Russian conspiracy narrative being pushed by the Clinton campaign. However, Crossfire Hurricane is also mostly invisible except for leaks. Leaks can be risky; and they dont want to tip-off the Trump campaign.
Meanwhile, despite their earnest efforts Fusion-GPS and Christopher Steele are not getting much media traction on their dossier. The media whispers are louder, most of them know about it, but no real traction on pushing specific stories.
On August 25th Hillary Clinton gives a speech in Reno Nevada where she outlines how the Alt Right and Russian agents/bots are behind an effort to destroy her campaign. To many people the speech just seemed goofy and paranoid. She was mocked for it.
Mysteriously Clinton disappeared for almost two weeks after that Alt Right speech, and resurfaced on September 11th in New York for a 9/11 event. This is when she had that mysterious collapsing episode, and was thrown in the van like a sack of potatoes. With each cough and stumble the possibility and risk of a Trump victory increases.
On September 29th, 2016, the FBI received word from New York that new Clinton emails were uncovered in the Weiner/Abedin laptop. Andrew McCabe and Peter Strzok buried the issue, assuming (hoping) that Clinton would win the election. The laptop would be avoided by the FBI until October 27th. [backstory] Undoubtedly the Clinton campaign team was notified.
On October 19th Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump square off in their final debate. During the debate Clinton calls Trump a puppet of Putin. Clinton suggested that Trump would be a puppet for Putin, who has a very clear favorite in this race. No, youre the puppet! Trump responded.

This CTH article has an amazing analysis and timeline of the events in the attempted coup. Originally, it was to keep Trump from winning and probably to ruin him and his family after the election. When he won, it was to try to get him out of office. Short of that, it was to cripple his administration. This criminal counterintelligence investigation did help lose the House to the Dems.
