Anyone remember when there was a conspiracy theory that Trump was sent by Clinton to win the primaries and make her president?

I never thought Trump could win, and this theory was always sitting in the back of my head...

Yes, it just seemed so perfect at the time. Here this buffoon was, seemingly tearing the GOP apart, making scandal after scandal non-stop through election day. I think it is fair to say that much of America's political prognosticator class underestimated just how much Americans would put up with from a politician. Though, I still think Trump was only seen as viable by many people because Hillary was somehow viewed equally as terrible.

Suffice to say that if at some point in the future it comes to light that that conspiracy is true, even I'll have a laugh.

This isn't exactly the same conspiracy, but wasn't there a similar effort by the DNC to prop up pied piper candidates like Trump and Carson as a way of handicapping the GOP?
