For decades America has tried to maintain the mantle as "Leader of the free world" and now this information is released as we have a businessman in charge, with an interest in profits, who claims, awkwardly, to want to Make America Great Again, but has done nothing short of destabilizing every facet of American life. He has created arbitrage where none used to exist, and arbitrage, for those that catch it, equals great profits. For those that facilitate arbitrage, even greater profit. And of course, insider trading does not affect politicians the same as it does to the private sector.
What I am getting at is there is a reason that this information is being released now, and I have long believed that it's Trump's main goal to relieve America of the responsibility of policing the world.
