Joe S said that there was this conspiracy

theory that Bill Clinton urged Trump to run. Then he tried to say Trump has always been a Democrat and that it is like he is trying to throw it and ruin the party. The panel would not touch that one with a 10 ft pole. 😂😂😂😂 Joe S. And Mika need to own it! They have a part in this too. They kissed Trump's butt during the primary.

Clinton said he should do it. Point B seems to stem from the idea that historically Trump supported women's choice and gave money to Dems.

Don't have links to back this up, but I do know I read them both here on DU.

I don't believe this "theory," but I admit that Trump is SUCH a terrible candidate that I think he must either be mentally ill or a plant.
