Alec Baldwin, who plays Trump on “Saturday Night Live,” seems one of the unconvinced. Yes, he took to Instagram to pose in a “Make America Great Again” hat.
The words, however, were in Russian.
The intelligence agencies appear to stand with the actor, rather than the reality TV star. On Friday, they insisted that Putin instigated a hacking campaign in an attempt to sway the US election. That isn’t quite the sort of thing friends do to friends.
It may take years before there’s complete consensus about who is a fool and who is merely “stupid” about Russia’s large, hairy hand of friendship.
I leave you with the words of famous Trump predecessor Abraham Lincoln: “Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.”
