    What train of logic led from “Trump is still alive” to “the Clintons must be murdering people”?

      I believe what they mean is “If the Clintons really are having people killed then what the fuck is Trumpleton doing still walking around?” And seriously, if anything righties cook up in their fear-addled minds was remotely true there’d be so many more dead people in both the citizenry and amongst politicians.

        They said that they know it’s a conspiracy, which means they believe that it’s happening.

          I think the word ‘conspiracy’ here is being conflated to mean ‘ridiculous, and false, conspiracy theory’. Conspiracies happen, but the word itself has the association with those who theorize and speculate on the absurd. I can say I don’t know for sure what the original commenter meant, but I think it is implied they meant they ‘know the Clinton’s murdering people isn’t true’.

      I think they mean that if the Clintons were actually murderers, trump wouldn’t be alive post-coup attempt.

      I think they mean that if it were actually true and Republicans could prove it the Clintons would be dead? Not sure it’s a little hard to parse.
