It really doesn’t matter whether or not. Brezenski (Clinton admin) and Steven Hadley (GWB admin) were discussing this on PBS last night, and the consensus is that it is foolish for diplomats to NOT gather as much info as they can. It’s not the shocker it’s made out to be.
Hey stranger :) Good to see you!
I always assumed there was a lot of back and forth snooping that went on- but it surely seems to have people in an uproar- whether for show or not it’s hard to tell.
Of course Dick Morris ascribes more sinister motives saying he’s sure it’s for blackmail purposes.
Whatever the case- it’s sure an interesting show- though not without consequence.
