We’re only ONE WEEK away from the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election being over, and it’s been one hell of a ride thus far. We’ve seen some wild conspiracy theories tossed around since day 1, theories suggesting that Donald Trump was never seriously running and was only in the race to serve as a distraction so that Hillary could skate through to the White House. In fact, one of our bloggers got high as hell a few months back and went through each of the most outlandish conspiracy theories, and you can read his experience of doing that here.
The one we’re talking about today, though, this one takes the cake. People are suggesting Russian government spies have flipped Donald Trump into an asset because they possess a sex tape of Donald Trump in a wild orgy:
In intel circles, the story goes FSB filmed Trump in an orgy while in Russia. Yes,this all ends in a Trump sex tape. https://t.co/h5EXta5tRe

A former senior intelligence officer, who specialised in Russian counterintelligence, told Mother Jones he has provided the FBI with information gathered from Russian sources which contends the Russian Government has attempted for years to cultivate or compromise Donald Trump into an asset.
There are also rumours, not substantiated, that Russia has pretty hefty blackmail material on Trump.
The ex-spy, who has more than two decades of experience in matters of Russian intelligence, said looking into Trump, ‘started off as a fairly general inquiry’.
Adding: ‘There was an established exchange of information between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin of mutual benefit.’
Already, everyone on Twitter is jumping in with their hot takes:

Not sure if orgy footage would hurt Trump at this stage.

It seems like trolls from both camps have come out their hardest in attempts to either make this #TrumpSexTape trending hashtag into a joke or prove the validity of it. With both sides pointing fingers are the others for trashing the hashtag.
Anyways, I’ve already voted. I voted early last week, and it felt SO FUCKING GOOD to just vote and be done with this nonsense. I suggest you bros all go do the same if you can, you’ll feel like a gigantic weight has been lifted off of your chest.
