Probably true, which makes Trump in a International Power position even more unnerving.
Trump is a train wreck in progress.
No doubt, and an understatement. Statistical probability is growing that Trump is a Russian mole, bent on reorganizing the national security apparatus to Putin's liking. There are several other possibilities in that sieve, and most of them are not good. That is, as a search-tree of evidence and fact unfolds, each step increase the chances of several possible paths that lie ahead of it. Contrast my world view here with the lemmings who bought the whole line about Clinton and Benghazi, Clinton and her e-mails and what couldn't be found in a search path that would ordinarily have terminated early but for the fact that it was a desperate witch-hunt.
People are somehow mystified by a confusion of "hacking" and an election-season psy-war campaign. If you asked the average chucklehead if he knows what psy-war is, high probability that he'd be clueless. The hacking gathered information used in the psy-war campaign.
What scares me as much is the panic over "NSA and mah cell-phone privacy," or the view some hold that Ed Snowden was some kind of hero.
The playbook for all this was first defined by Goebbels and the Reich, then by CIA -- who "rescued" sociologists and psychologists from post-war Germany like NASA grabbed Werner von Braun and colleagues. But that detour doesn't describe the nature of CIA today, or what it does for us and the country, just as NSA protects communications infrastructure, breaks codes, and could assist with meta-data in tracking terrorists who are also moles -- already insinuated about Trump.
And I think we wouldn't be at this point and status of affairs except that Snowden had to realize his little "Bourne Legacy" flight-and-pursuit fantasy. Raising Russian awareness to a different view of Cold War history, possibly compromising the crown jewels of NSA to the Kremlin -- that's (probabilistically) Snowden's likely legacy.
Traitor One? We now introduce Traitor Two. And there's a wide segment -- many millennials who may have better political instincts today than some of their elders -- who worship one or the other.
This could be one of the great historical dramas in "The Deterioration of the Nation-State." Even the KGB had predicted, some five years ago, that the US would balkanize into two or three separate parts.
