I don’t believe he outed himself just because of ego.
Something else is afoot.
Someone said he gave his computer motherload to China before he left. I believe it's someplace else. Russia is much more likely.
Yes, I think it might be Nationalization kinda like National Socialism that they have in Europe. So a takeover of the NSA and it’s affiliates which would include the lucrative private contractors (some of which are already in tandem with the government or rather vice versa) might be in the works. They’re standardizing the globe one step at a time, for example, Socialized Medicine like the UK. The immigration deal is also important perhaps an effort to Balkanize us like Clinton et al did in Yugoslavia and they’re going to do in the ME - easier to control. I don’t think fusing N America w/ S America is the end plan.
