Hypothesis: Trump is secretly behind the renewed push for gun control because he needs a new issue to directly align himself with working class Americans. ( conspiracy )

submitted by organicgangbang

Don't really have much supporting evidence for this, but it's something that occurred to me while watching how strongly Trump has taken up the fight against gun control in the political arena. It's like he was losing momentum over the past few months with middle America, taking lots of heat for comments about Mexicans/etc, and this is the new issue that's going to hit home with millions of average voters. The timing could possibly be entirely coincidental, but if so it's hard to measure how lucky Trump is that this issue has gotten so much attention from the mainstream media during his campaign. It's almost as if this issue was perfectly designed from the ground up to be something that only Trump would or could advocate for. Now we have this climate where anytime gun control is mentioned publicly in the media you also have to talk about Trump and his plans for it, because they are so radically different from what other candidates have said they intend to do.

Would love to hear others thought's on the likelihood of this kind of thing as a possibility. Please fill in the gaps if you see any piece of this puzzle I missed heh.

I think a better conspiracy is Trumps friendship with the Clintons and if he's Establishment.

organicgangbang

Interesting. Are there sources that show ties between Trump and the Clintons? I've never heard that claim before.

Renewed push would imply there hasn't always been a continual push for gun control.

Stretching a wee bit arent we? Gun control has been a issue for years now.

organicgangbang

Gun control as an issue has never come close to the level of attention it's receiving lately. Even immediately after tragedies like Columbine people weren't talking about gun control at the same level they are now.

Unless if the establishment really wants Trump to win.

Do you know what 'hypothesis' means?

a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.

It's the FIRST word of my submission title. Where did I claim that my outlandish idea was factual or concrete?

organicgangbang

I don't think so either, I didn't intend to imply that. I was suggesting that Obama could be serving the purpose of Trump without even being aware that he's being covertly manipulated by someone with ulterior motives.

He's no losing momentum he maybe plateauing tho.

Middle America has been Trump's strongest support since the beginning, and has doubled his percentage from 20 to 40 in the last like three months, he hasn't been stalling, let alone losing momentum.

The logic behind an extremely unpopular attempted gun ban this close to elections is certainly questionable though, it could either be a hail mary attempt because they believe a leftist victory is unlikely or a final fuck you to Hillary from Obama, given their rumored animosity. I don't think Trump controlling the POTUS is likely though, especially considering his proposed policies damage the global elite.

Can you define what exactly is a migrant related disaster? As in a disaster caused by people migrating? I'm not seeing anything that fits such a description being mentioned in the media. The migrations in Syria for example, were caused by a disaster. But the migrants didn't cause new disasters themselves, which is what that term insinuates at first glance.

(BTW, it's poll numbers. "Pole" refers to the furthest north and south points on the globe. Hope that helps.)

It's a subverse about conspiracy theories. Opinions aren't welcome here? I didn't see that on the rules.

Are you retarded? Obama is pushing gun control. Not Trump. So is Obama for Trump? When you post shit like this you make a fool of yourself.

You might want to look up what the word "secretly" means. Then once you understand what it means, read my submission title again. No need to apologize.
