Following the assassination attempt of Donald Trump, both sides have floated numerous conspiracy theories to explain the events of Saturday afternoon. Progressive conspiracies claim that Donald Trump wasn’t really shot and that he’s milking the cuts from shattered teleprompter glass for political gain. Conservative conspiracies claim that the Biden campaign orchestrated the assassination attempt from start to finish because they know Trump will win in November.
As these conspiracy theories become ubiquitous across both sides and are adopted by well-intentioned people, it’s important to understand why: Good people sleep better at night believing bad people are in charge with a plan rather than realizing incompetent idiots are running the show. Let me explain:
Epic failure by the SS. I'm not Biden (thank God) but if I was I would have immediately fired Cheatle after she publicly stated that the reason there was no security on the roof of that building was because it was a sloped roof. The slope of that roof was marginal at best. I take more risk when I get on my roof to blow leaves off and the only one I have to protect is myself.
Combine Hanlon’s Razor with the Peter Principle and you have the Unified Theory of Government.
