The FBI says Donald Trump's would-be assassin acted alone; the CIA denies any association with him. But experts say the complex reasons for belief in conspiracies will likely keep people believing.

    Don’t needlessly increase entities.

      You’re the one who thinks this shit is complicated and not easy. Next thing you’ll be saying Trump wouldn’t accept someone else dying for his personal gain!

        There’s nothing complicated about a would be presidential assasin who acted alone.

        History is literally riddled with them.

        But your ideas of comic book level conspiracies? Occam’s razor says no.

            I mean, I definitely believe that Trump would stage an assassination for political points. In fact, I bet he’s goons could pull it off. I just don’t see any evidence to make that seem more likely than “it was just some kid, and the secret service was slacking that day”.

            Your conclusion is shit.

            You just want to believe in whatever you think feels best, instead of what is most likely.

                I knew you wouldn’t recognise Occam’s razor in that form. You’re a moron who doesn’t understand reality. I don’t care about your opinion in the slightest.

                You’re clearly offended. Too bad. I’m not. :)
