Yeah. Nothing precludes Russia from simply being the enemy of the US and “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”. Of course they’d love Snowden. Doesn’t mean he was a Russian plant from the get go. That’s just conspiracy theory nonsense. I’ll give OP that Russia is probably doing many shady things. But let’s not turn everything that favors them into some grand, all-enconpassing, conspiracy. That’s how you start to become a whack job. Plenty of things are just happenstance.
