There seems to be a lot of confusion in this election as to how Trump was able to surpass so many of his running mates to become the republican candidate. Something seems to be a bit hairy about the whole situation (and I'm not talking about Trump's toupee).

There are some theories out there that have a striking amount of evidence to back them up. One of the most popular ideas as to how Trump trumped others is that Hillary and Bill Clinton have teamed up with Donald Trump to rig the election. It wouldn't be the first time that there is speculation of Hillary rigging anything, but there actually seems to be a lot of signs pointing towards this modern conspiracy theory. Hear me out.

1. Trump was a democrat for 30+ years.

This one is not as big of a deal. People switch their political opinions all the time. When he registered to vote, he was a democrat. Then he switched in 1987 to be republican. Then he switched again in 2001 to be a democrat. In 2004, though, he tossed around the idea of running for president as a democrat. It does raise a red flag that he could have thought to run in elections as a democrat when he is now running as a republican.

2. Trump donated money to some of the democratic party's non-profits.

It was reported that Trump donated a decent chunk of change to Bill Clinton's non-profit, the Clinton Foundation. The organization claims that Trump has donated about $100,000. Also, he donated $25,000 to Democratic Campaign Committees. According to some sources, Trump had ultimately donated more money to the democratic party than the republican party until 2011. Now, he solely donates to the republican party.

3. Trump and the Clintons are buddy buddy.

The Clintons were invited to Trump's 2005 wedding to his current wife, Melania Knauss Trump. Bill Clinton and Donald Trump have gone golfing together, and Bill Clinton was reported saying that Donald is "uncommonly nice" to the Clinton family.

4. Bill Clinton talked politics with Donald Trump just weeks before his presumptive nomination.

There have been five inside sources stating that Trump and Clinton had an exchange shortly before Trump announced his true intention to run. This phone call has been deemed private, so no one is able to discuss anything specific, but there is a short article that highlights all the important pieces. The four sources close to Trump say that Clinton never encouraged Trump to run, but they did discuss Trump's plan.

So even though this could simply be a myth, we can never truly know until we see what happens. Many believe that Trump will find the whole thing to be too boring to follow through or that he isn't likeable enough to truly win. There are so many people who doubt Trump's ability to lead the country, including white collar republicans. It seems hard to believe that he is actually going through with this. So the theory is that it might be possible Trump could have been used in this election as a piece of Hillary's game. What do you think?
