Before a crime is proven, there's usually speculation. Just like people suspected Nixon of being involved in Watergate before there was actual proof. The truth can come slowly.
I agree that we need to follow due process, but it's just as dangerous to categorize any suspicion of criminal activity as "blaming Trump for everything". You're just on the opposite end of the spectrum as people who thinks he's guilty before we have proof.
Evidence takes time, especially with plea bargains where there's incentive to hold out until the evidence against you is overwhelming.
It's best to be somewhere in the middle where you're equally skeptical and open to whatever news and evidence comes out.
- malvosenior 8y agoYou're right, there's obviously a spectrum. I feel it's gone too far in one direction. There's literally no proof on this particular issue that Trump had anything to do with the NE story on Bezos so it seems like quite a leap to start creating conspiracy theories that he used national intelligence agencies to dig up the dirt.
- jandrese 8y agoI would have written it off as conspiracy theory nonsense myself, were it not for Trumps attack tweets a few weeks ago. While I don't think any US intelligence agencies are involved, it's absolutely possible that some foreign partners are providing "voluntary assistance" in the matter.
- YUMad 8y agoYup, just like people suspected Hillary to be involved in Seth Rich's murder?
