Here is just a thought.
The Republicans are using Conspiracy theories, but, they don't care if people actually believe them or not.
Most people do not. Not even the Republicans. The Republicans do not care if they are true or not. They use them for rallying cries.
And even though no one really believes them, it is a way for them to publicly just ignore the true facts, create fear, create chaos, create doubt, create anarchy, use them as distractions, use them to create more hatred towards their political arch rivals.
So they just go along with them, and repeat them, thinking this is their way to own the Democrats by keeping them feeling like their whole political chances are hopeless with so much resistance towards them and reality by the Conspiracy theorists.
It's all strategically planned, calculated, typical for them, easily predictable, and expected. THIS IS WHO THE REPUBLICANS ARE NOW!
It is a Conspiracy Theory led Rebellion, by the most deplorable and dishonest morally inept people in this country, who only care about themselves and the power they can accumulate to force their ways on others.
operation crossfire hurricane is no conspiracy theory.

Crossfire Hurricane was the code name for the counterintelligence investigation undertaken by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) from July 31, 2016, to May 17, 2017, into myriad links between Trump associates and Russian officials and spies and "whether individuals associated with [Trump's] presidential campaign were coordinating, wittingly or unwittingly, with the Russian government's efforts to interfere in the 2016 U.S. presidential election".[1] Trump was not personally under investigation until May 2017, when his firing of FBI director James Comey raised suspicions of obstruction of justice, which triggered the Mueller investigation.[2]
The investigation was officially opened on July 31, 2016, initially due to information on Trump campaign member George Papadopoulos's early assertions of Russians having damaging material on Trump's rival candidate Hillary Clinton which the Russians offered to anonymously release as assistance to the Trump campaign. From late July to November 2016, the joint effort between the FBI, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and the National Security Agency (NSA) examined evidence of Russian meddling in the presidential election. The FBI's team enjoyed a large degree of autonomy within the broader interagency probe.
The FBI's work was taken over on May 17, 2017, by the Special Counsel investigation of 2017–2019, which eventually resulted in the Mueller Report. Mueller concluded that Russian interference occurred in a "sweeping and systematic fashion" and that there were substantial links between Russians and the Trump campaign, but the evidence available to investigators did not establish that the Trump campaign had "conspired or coordinated" with the Russian government.
Trump and his allies repeatedly alleged that the Crossfire Hurricane investigation was opened on false pretenses for political purposes.[3] A subsequent review done by Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz, released in redacted form in December 2019, found no evidence that political bias against Trump tainted the initiation of the investigation,[4][5][6][7][8][9] but did find that the FBI made 17 errors or omissions in its FISA warrant applications to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA Court) for surveillance of former Trump aide Carter Page.[3][10]
On January 23, 2020, two of the four FISA warrants were declared invalid by the Department of Justice.[11] James E. Boasberg, a Washington D.C. federal judge, also said that surveillance collected against Page lacked a legal basis.[12] As a result of this and other issues that raised questions about the origins of Crossfire Hurricane, Attorney General William Barr assigned John Durham, the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, to lead an investigation into Crossfire Hurricane.[13] On August 19, 2020, a former FBI attorney pleaded guilty to making a false statement stemming from his alteration of an email connected to one of the FISA warrant applications.[14][15] On October 19, 2020, Barr appointed Durham to be a Special Counsel, elevating the form of the investigation, in this probe.[16][17] Upon release of his final report, Durham did not recommend charges against any new individuals or recommend wholesale changes to how the FBI conducts controversial investigations. However, he criticized the FBI and Justice Department, stating that they "failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activities described in this report" and argued that a full investigation never should have been launched, at odds with a 2019 Justice Department inspector general investigation.
