those buzzwords of conspiracy and believe are a pretty strong tell someone has made up their mind way before critical thought.

1) I didn't say its not real. I said that they appear to be talking about how to hypothetically rig an election as opposed to actually rigging an election and the voice overs at key moments instead of a full release of unedited tape make me question the validity of the tape.
For example if we only had the one line from Trumps hot mike take I would likely say that there was context to explain it as only the one line was published.
2) It's not the fact that its a conspiracy that makes it impossible. Its the logistical effort required to make a difference vs the probability of a whistle blower coming forward. My buddy Occam has a saying about this.
3) I want to know if the poster really believes the contents of the video or is it just presented without comment. If a person really believes this I am interested in the discussion if its pure troll or presented as info I'm not that interested in a discussion.
So if the video poster was interested in real debate on issues he would have turned the video over to the police in the relevant states and he would release the unedited tape in its entirety. Until that occurs it isn't worth the time. I will gladly review it when the Rock Bottom music is removed and the tape is complete.
