Responding to Donald Trump in last week’s presidential debate, Hillary Clinton said, “I have a feeling I’m going to be blamed for everything that’s ever happened.” While Trump’s allegations were at a muted absurdity on Monday night, he has accused the democratic frontrunner of almost everything—from using the ‘woman card’ to partnering with Obama to create ISIS. But despite his eccentricities, Trump isn’t Hillary’s most outlandish critic. Many devout conspiracy theorists have taken to the web to color in the crazy in Trump’s list of charges. Some of the most bizarre ones claim that Hillary is:
1. A Sith Lord
For some, Hillary’s rise to political leadership bears an eerie resemblance to that of a Sith Lord. While the Hillary-Darklord-Theory has been mostly well thought out, there’s still some debate as to which Sith Lord the presidential candidate actually is. If she’s Emperor Palpatine, is Obama then both Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker?
2. A Robot
We may be just a year away from the launch of Genisys A.K.A the fictional A.I bent on exterminating humanity, so it’s somewhat understandable that people are suspicious of technology. But this paranoia and some very weird footage of Hillary moving her eyes in different directions have got some thinking that she may be a robot. But she isn’t the only politician who appears to have time traveled. Amateur photographic experts have also suggested that Putin could be a time traveler. But it’s still unclear whether or not Putin—like fellow sportsman Arnold Schwarzenegger—will defend us during the Robopocalypse.
3. Dying
Hillary’s coughing on stage at a campaign rally and her early departure from the 9/11 memorial last month have lead some to believe that the presidential candidate may be suffering from serious health problems. Although her doctor diagnosed her with only a case ‘walking pneumonia’, others have surmised that she may be suffering from a slew of diseases including ALS, MS, and AIDS which she may have contracted from her licentious husband.
4. A Double
With death fast approaching (according to conspiracy theory number two), Hillary having a body double who could easily take her place when symptoms of her life-threatening diseases surface would be a clever way of assuring the press that she’s fit to run for presidency. But so far Hillary’s double seems to be doing a terrible job of laying low.
5. A Mass Murderer
Less like Ted Bundy and more like Charles Manson. Hillary is believed to be responsible for arranging the murders of more than 40 colleagues. Sanders' endorsement is starting to make a whole lot more sense now.
Whether you believe these theories or not, one thing is certain—making sense of the 2016 presidential campaign is much like trying to decipher the mysteries in “Lost.”
