Why The Donald Trump Conspiracy Theory Might Be Real

Hi. It's me. Talking about Donald Trump again.

Despite it having been several months since Donald Trump started his mission to offend every single marginalized group on the planet, I still can't believe the garbage that he perpetuates. Here's the thing, though; I think, or at least I want to believe, he doesn't believe it either.

There's a debatable claim that Trump once called Republicans, "the dumbest group of voters" (no offense to Republicans, it's not my opinion) in a People Magazine interview. While there's no real proof of this quote, there is proof of Trump's liberal past and support for the Democratic Party. Despite endless insults he throws Hillary Clinton's way, the two actually have a long-standing friendship. Though friendship, of course, can come with political disagreement, Trump also has a history of donating to the Clinton Foundation, along with previous Clinton campaigns. Along with that, Trump has also donated to campaigns for Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

This, of course, isn't so to say that people can't change their political opinions, but changing them into drastically extreme racist and sexist ideals, all of the sudden does not seem quite as plausible. With an anti-Republican quote following him, in which he claims that he could "say whatever he wants and his numbers would be huge" (pronounced yuge, probably), he could possibly be playing on an old idea to manipulate voters into his presidency. More specifically, though, the theory is that Donald Trump is secretly working for Hillary Clinton and the Democrats.

It's a far-fetched idea, of course, yet it is a theory that has been floating around the internet with an actually decent amount of evidence backing it. Though the claim against Republicans that he could "say whatever he wanted and his numbers would be huge" (pronounced yuge, probably), is one that is not for sure a factual quote, it plays in with his current very specific campaign and slander against Hillary Clinton. Along with that, the quote dates back to 1998, long before he ever considered running for president. So far, that quote hasn't been entirely wrong; as he continues to make harmful remarks, his numbers rise as shown in the early primaries.

Considering his past friendship with Clinton making such a sudden change, and Clinton not seeming to sweat him too much, perhaps Trump is secretly working for her. Perhaps he is running such a slanderous campaign tactically, so that by misrepresenting himself, he can attempt a guaranteed win for the Democratic Party. Perhaps this campaign is nothing more than secret operation in the works for Hillary Clinton so Trump can help his friend.

Or not. Really, I'm just trying to restore my faith in humanity, here.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
