Как бы последовав совету сенатора Шелби "think the unthinkable", известный публицист Джонатан Чаит написал длинную заглавную статью Will Trump Be Meeting With His Counterpart — Or His Handler? в журнале New York, собрав многочисленные факты и свидетельства в пользу гипотезы о Трампе, как агенте и марионетке Кремля.

What is missing from our imagination is the unlikely but possible outcome on the other end: that this is all much worse than we suspect. After all, treating a small probability as if it were nonexistent is the very error much of the news media made in covering the presidential horse race. And while the body of publicly available information about the Russia scandal is already extensive, the way it has been delivered — scoop after scoop of discrete nuggets of information — has been disorienting and difficult to follow. What would it look like if it were reassembled into a single narrative, one that distinguished between fact and speculation but didn’t myopically focus on the most certain conclusions?

Новых для себя фактов я в этом анализе не обнаружил, но их компиляция заслуживает внимания.

That Trump has some sort of unsavory clandestine relationship with the Kremlin (agent-of-influence-like) since at least 1987 is screamingly obvious to anyone versed in FCI & RIS. Nice to see the MSM now join the party. Would have been nice if they noticed a couple years earlier.

В этом и других анализах комментаторы заслуженно обращают внимание на ключевую роль поездки Трампа в Москву в 1987, но упускают из внимания другую точки бифуркации - 2011 год.
