Anther tin-hat theory: the GOP scorched-earth policy.
Honestly, sometimes I think I need to go to Costco and get a truckload of their aluminum foil.
But reading about some of the stuff the GOP has wanted to do over the past few years, I can't help but think they are actually setting up the country to totally disintegrate in the near future. And most of them don't need to worry about it: they're wealthy as it is, and an influx of tax-free rubles will take care of them and their descendants for a long time. IF -- big IF -- they even decide to stay here.
Which, of course, points to our friend Vladimir Vladimirovich.
If someone were to die and make me king, I would set up an investigation of the big players in the GOP and whether they could be charged with treason. I would want it to be fair and aboveboard and handled by honest and able investigators and all, and I would accept the results, but I would definitely want an investigation.
As Marcellus said to Horatio in Hamlet I 4, "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark."
