Not me. \u00a0I\u2019m behind in work at my day job.<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s a link to a skeptical article at the National Review<\/a>. \u00a0You can follow their link to the original Buzzfeed article. \u00a0Here\u2019s another article, this one by David French<\/a>. \u00a0Am I cherry-picking? \u00a0Do I need to dig into this from a mix of authors? \u00a0Yes, of course. \u00a0But I really, really, need to finish a memo for work, and in the meantime, thought it would be worthwhile to open this up to readers.<\/p>\n

Is this the Cold War all over again? \u00a0A real-life Manchurian Candidate? \u00a0Or a disinformation campaign from the Left, intended to destabilize and prevent Trump from governing in any meaningful way? \u00a0And what next? \u00a0Will Trump let Putin occupy the Baltics, or will he be overly hawkish to prove he\u2019s not beholden to him?<\/p>\n
