The Ridiculous Conspiracy Theories People Fell For In 2016

Donald Trump Is a Democratic Plant

Many from both sides of the political spectrum couldn’t believe that Donald Trump was running for office. Some even suggested that he was a democratic plant sent to sabotage the Republican party. Many pointed to such things as his criticism of John McCain, stating that he was a hero because he was a prisoner of war.

Trump said, “He’s not a war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” Others point to his former friendship with Hillary and Bill Clinton, although Bill has said they weren’t that close, they were definitely photographed together. Trump even complimented Hillary in the past.
