28. Disappointing how stupid they are

I have been reading the book and am a bit disappointed that they are probably too damn stupid to have been fully aware of their collusion with Russia, or at least that it wasn't business as usual. I at least wanted them to be smart enough to be aware of what they did!

It is hard for anyone to claim the gist of Wolff's book isn't true when so much of the chaos he writes about has been leaking out all over the place for the past year.
