Beck: Trump Campaign Is Plot To Elect Hillary

Meanwhile, back in the clown car...

http://www.alan.com/2015/12/01/beck-trump-campaign-is-plot-to-elect-hillary/#

Glenn Beck isn’t the only person I know who believes this.

Beck eventually began to speculate that the business mogul’s entire presidential campaign is part of some secret deal to help Hillary Clinton get elected to the White House.

After pointing out that pretty much all of Trump’s stated positions make no sense and often directly contradict his previously stated views, Beck concluded that is is “more logical” to conclude that Trump is running for president in order to launch a third party campaign for the purpose of undermining the Republican Party and benefiting of Hillary Clinton.

“What are the odds that he is a spoiler?” Beck asked. “What are the odds that he got into this because he’s friend with the Clintons and he’ll get massive payback? If Hillary Clinton gets in because he ran third party, do you know the favor they’re going to owe him?”


Tinfoil hats off, please, Beckkk.

I don't believe it -- no matter how much it comports with reality.

Trump loves the limelight, it is a perfect plan when you think about it.

If I am wrong and he manages to steal the WH, we are in big trouble.

encouraged Trump to run. If true, the Big Dog must fall asleep each night grinning from ear to ear.

And, while it may be a bit tinfoily, it's not beyond the realm of reason either. Of course, the lack of evidence (and the target!) means I'm not likely to buy into it, but it's an interesting theory as a thought experiment if nothing else.
