Great fun. Utter tosh, obviously, motivated by Elizabethan endeavours toblay claim to parts of the Nee World beyond the reach of Spain!
The Charlemagne or Arthurian links? If the latter, Dee seems to have been working with earlier materials that perhaps stretch back to the late 12thC, I'd suggest, that follow classic pattern of 'borrowing' the deeds of others and ascribing to the "historical" Arthur :)
The Arthurian, for sure, which - given that the figure & tales of Arthur are amalgams of real kings & emperors such as Magnus Maximus, Urien of Rheged, ao - makes the whole proposition seem like a house of cards built on dry sand in a gale!! 
Absolutely! Although I fear I'm with Oliver Padel in seeing the figure of Arthur as originally a folkloric hero+protector who was historicized, with the 'historical' borrowings & the 'historical Arthur's in general being only a limited element within tradition before the 12thC :)
I don’t disagree on any particular point!
