Hard to believe that he isn't somehow involved. It would be contrary to everything we know about him. So easy to imagine his involvement, but to speculate would no doubt cast me as tin foil hat. Yet, the facts are, Putin is all about this kind of misdirection and manipulation.
His absence from recent discussions, makes his presence all the more plausible.

I've wondered if Trump's crazy urgency to get home is because that is where his secret direct communicator to PaPa Putin is stored. !!
PS: 99% joking. I know steroid induced euphoria -- that's what it looks like to me.
