Bill Clinton: The Conspiracy
Introduction
Clinton's Character
Thirty four people connected to the Clinton family all died leading to much conspiracy about the true nature of their deaths (Matthews). Were the Clintons responsible for the deaths? Was it purely coincidence? The former impeached president, Bill Clinton, and his family is rumored to be involved with these deaths. There are multiple theories about this situation including: The deaths were all coincident and were sincerely heart attacks, plane crashes, and suicides. The deaths were planned by the Clinton family. Let’s explore the mysterious circumstances around the deaths of the thirty four people supposedly connected with the Clinton family.
Bill Clinton, the 42nd president of the United States, is widely known as an immoral person. Senator Joe Lieberman said that he “was disappointed because the president of the United States had just confessed to engaging in an extramarital affair with a young woman in his employ and to willfully deceiving the nation about his conduct” (Blitzer). Clinton’s unethical behavior continued through his creation of “a steady stream of ‘scandals,’ from the firing of White House travel office employees to an imbroglio over Hillary Clinton’s legal billing records to Vince Foster’s unfortunate suicide to the Holy Grail of them all, Whitewater, the land deal on which the Clintons lost money” (Freedlander). These are some of the most well-known examples of President Clinton as an immoral individual; him lying to the public about affairs he was involved in.
Another attribute that Bill Clinton was known for is his determination. According to PBS, after “earning a second place in the New Hamphire primary, Bill earned a new nickname: ‘The Comeback Kid’” after recovering from severe accusations (“Bill Clinton”). Clinton did not quit, although “had Mr. Clinton resigned, he would have given in to that campaign. That’s why he didn’t quit” (Freedlander). This shows how President Clinton’s determination was a big part of his life and his constant refusal to back down.
A big contribution to Clinton’s career was his charisma and empathy. In a post about psychology and Clinton, Ph.D. Stephanie Sarkis explained how “a man said that even when he just briefly met with Clinton, Clinton made him feel as if he was the only person in the room.” óThe man went on to explain that “he looks at you like you are the most important person he’s talked to that day. Even though you know you’re not, you still feel like you are.” (Sarkis). In a PennState article, the author explained how they “generally have a short attention span and can begin to daydream: however, President Bill Clinton was one of the most charismatic speakers that [they] have ever listened to” (“President Bill Clinton – Transformational Leader”). These articles all show the charisma that President Clinton had in both crowds and individual interactions with people in his life.
Bill Clinton has been described as many things including immoral, determined, and charismatic, although seemingly contradictory. His immorality was defined through his creation of “a steady stream of ‘scandals,’” referring to his many scandalous actions and accusations that Clinton was involved in (Freedlander). Although accused of much, his determination greatly impacted his future, earning him “a new nickname: The Comeback Kid,” inspiring many to take action with or against Clinton (“Bill Clinton”). Lastly, Clinton’s charisma seemingly ties everything together through his ability to make a person feel “like you are the most important person he’s talked to that day” (Sarkis). Even through all of the conflicting events in his life, Bill Clinton manages to be the center of a major conspiracy theory today.
The Conspiracy Theory
How truthful are people when put under pressure? This question can be explored thoroughly in the case of Bill Clinton and his family. There are two conspiracy theories surrounding the Clinton body count. The first theory addresses the possibility of the thirty-four deaths, seemingly connected to the Clintons, ruled as natural causes and coincidence. In contrast, many people have suspected the Clintons of foul play, and accuse them of being responsible for all of the deaths.
A common theory around the mysterious circumstances of the Clinton body count is that all thirty-four people who mysteriously died simply died of natural causes, and the situation is purely coincidental. According to the Tampa Bay Times, the lack of evidence suggests that common conspiracy theories against the Clintons remain false. For example, in reference to one of the most popular victims of the conspiracy theory, "Clinton denied knowing anything about Epstein's alleged crimes and said in the statement that he hasn't spoken to Epstein in well over a decade. Prosecutors and other officials have not linked the former president to the accusations against Epstein. ("Politifact: There's No Evidence...)" This shows how if Clinton told the truth, he was not even in contact with Epstein, and was not responsible for his death. Although, this theory may be invalid due to the lack of credibility brought by Bill Clinton’s word. It has been proven that he perjured himself, or lied under oath, during federal court proceedings. This lack of honesty from Clinton’s past presents questions of what other information is false or fabricated.
In contrast to the coincidental theory, the more popular theory is that the Clintons were responsible for the thirty-four deaths under suspicion. President Bill Clinton, already known as an immoral and dishonest character, was put under suspicion regarding the deaths. According to a The Washington Post article by Maegan Vazquez, in a video posted by Donald Trump, the "implication of the video shared by Trump... is that the Clintons were somehow involved. (Vazquez)" Trump has also “called Foster’s 1993 death ‘very fishy’ and said he thinks he was murdered” (Vazquez). This shows how even nowadays, the conspiracy theory still remains strong and demands recognition in the political spectrum. Even a big political figure, the current President of the United States, expresses his belief that this conspiracy theory is in fact true. Although it is all up for speculation, this theory becomes more believable when thinking of the probability of this many natural deaths. It is extremely unlikely that thirty-four people mysteriously pass away, especially when they all connect back to a famous political family.
Although never officially solved, the Clintons continue to be under massive speculation and suspicion regarding these deaths. Even though it is up for interpretation, each theory has its flaws but provides some answers. Both are plausible theories, but the one that would be more likely is that the deaths were set up by the Clintons. This is because it answers more of the questions in the air, and Bill Clinton is already known as a dishonest person.
Currently, the theories and speculation still remain, with no evidence accusing the Clintons. People and political figures, like Donald Trump, support the theory and blame the Clintons, while others still believe that no one is responsible and they had nothing to do with the deaths.
Conclusion
Throughout politics, one of the hottest topics has been the conspiracy behind Bill Clinton and the Clinton Body Count. Two main theories surround this conspiracy. The first theory is that all of the thirty-four deaths connected with the Clintons were purely coincidental and accidental (“Bill Clinton”). The second, and more widely believed theory is that the Clintons were behind the deaths and should be held accountable. To this day, although no evidence has been found that proves the Clintons responsible for these deaths, the conspiracy remains present and unsolved.
