I don't think they had a choice. They needed someone utterly lacking in character and integrity, and insecure yet consumed by self-regard that would render him completely susceptible to systematic flattery. So much so that he would shrug off the consequences of playing footsie with a major geopolitical foe of the U.S. Who else fits those criteria besides Trump?
That may have been good advice when LinkedIn was new, but at some point they decided they should be the next Facebook where you have a thousand "friends" but can't remember if you actually know them or just needed more neighbors in FarmVille. And the skills rec thing is ridiculous; I keep having to go in and clear Perl out of it from former coworkers who really should know better.
I know, right? You'd think that they would have done their homework better. Though given the financial leverage they probably - allegedly - have over him you'd think they already knew who - and what - they were dealing with.
Then we'll start getting flooded with comment like "Hey, you site very funny I want to laugh, but Putin is best and strong and you don't want children to be orphan, хахаха"
Yeah, everything smells bad in situ... I'll never get over that first case of gangrene I encountered in an ER between college and grad school. Anaerobic organisms were always the worst for me.
I really don't think if I was going to assassinate someone I'd pick bacterial. MAYBE a nice, juicy MRSA, but even then there are a lot of factors that have to go right for a kill (was going to say "clean" kill, but there is nothing clean about dying from infection). Seems like a nice botulinum toxin, or good ol' polonium would be the way to go. The classics are classic for a reason.
I'm sure you know there's a specific reason for pseudomonas smell, the production of methyl ketones that smell rancid but yes, they would be a poor choice for assassination unless the victim was post stem cell transplant or had CLL, etc. The old commando/mafia move of sticking the knife in human stool would be far more efficient.
A friend from college who became hugely fat and Wall Street wealthy has almost exclusively those "models" as FB friends. Occasionally, he will travel to the cities where they live and post pictures of himself with them. I assume some kind of sugar-baby/daddy soft-prostitution thing is going on.
I refuse them all, and while they are less frequent, they haven't stopped. I assume I am in their sweet-spot target audience, being a middle-aged guy with a wife and kids, and presumably ripe for making some terrible mid-life decisions.
Purty far, but I do have hope nonetheless.

Naw thanks anyway. I get enough right wing hate from Twitter, Facebook and my brother to cover me.
I would assume Russian Facebook just has a huge picture of Putins face with people leaving comments about what a handsome strong leader he is.
I certainly am serious, and stop calling me Shirley... uh, I mean Abby!

Real life not the internet or social media.
but darn it smells bad growing on a wound dressing. I credit that smell with steering me away from surgery as a third year student.

Thank you. It was a wonder to observe.

They were looking for a "useful idiot," but looks like they got a "utterly useless idiot."
