Am I the only person who worries that the events of the last six months were not coincidental? I am not normally a conspiracy theorist. However, it seems to me that, with the U.S. government’s insinuation into a number of induatries, the election of a novice as POTUS, and the series of events around the globe, we may be seeing too many events falling in one direction to be accidental.

Wretchard, could we please have a thread that deals with this. I am anxious to be disabused of this suspicion. However, right now, I am unable to rule it out. If the outstanding contributors on this blog can help me with this, I will be most appreciative.
