Suppose no one should be at this point. And yet, here we are.

In case you missed the news, Donald Trump — despite calling himself his “primary consultant” on foreign policy — finally revealed his foreign policy team to the Washington Post. Here’s one of his picks:

Papadopoulos, a 2009 graduate of DePaul University, directs an international energy center at the London Center of International Law Practice. He previously advised the presidential campaign of Ben Carson and worked as a research fellow at the Hudson Institute, a conservative think tank in Washington. According to his LinkedIn profile, he has had meetings with the president of Cyprus and the prime minister of the United Arab Emirates. He obtained a masters’s degree from the University of London in 2010.

A biography on Carson’s website says Papadopoulos “designed the first ever project in Washington, D.C. think-tank history on U.S., Greece, Cyprus and Israel relations at a symposium entitled ‘Power Shifts in the Eastern Mediterranean: The Emerging Strategic Relationship of Israel, Greece and Cyprus.’”

…

Papadopoulos confirmed on Monday that he was an adviser to Trump but declined further comment.
