Grade A bullshit right there.

No way to tell but I wonder how many of the people who mention the Clinton Kill List really believe it versus jokes or trolling? It has to be greater than 0%.

If you say _100%_, people will think it’s a trick.  
If you say _More than 75%_, people will think it’s a statistic.

As to the OP, the Clinton death count is a combination of right-wing fearmongering and people who are bad at math.

This bullshit again?! Instead, let’s talk about the kids who have died in Trump’s children’s prisons along the border. I think those are much more suspicious.

Keep this up for a few years and eventually, you might end up being as funny as late stage cancer.

Another work colleague has gone on record as believing that conditions in the detention facilities are being “exaggerated” by the media. She wouldn’t be pinned down on whether she believed there had been actual deaths, of course.

See I know you’re going for “funny” but all you’re really getting is “boomer”.

Snopes on [Clinton Body Bags](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/clinton-body-bags/). Pure bullshit, but you got to love that title.

Apparently whenever anyone who was ever in contact or even met the Clintons dies, they were killed by the couple because they knew something about them.

I first read that as “boner”.  
(Funny thing is, even with that misreading I still thought “Yeah, that works out.”)

I’m surprised the conspiracy buffs don’t have Clinton on the grassy knoll in Dallas.

Well, he did meet Kennedy once.

My absolute most favorite entry in the list, an entry which will never be topped:

> [@snopes](#):
>
> James Milam — had information on the Ives and Henry deaths. He was decapitated. The coroner ruled death due to natural causes.
> 
> This is my favorite entry. Remember that Arkansas medical examiner, the one I said wasn’t always the most conscientious investigator on God’s green earth? Yep, we’re about to see him again. Fahmy Malak listed James Milam’s cause of death as a perforated ulcer, adding that Milam’s small dog afterwards ate the dead man’s head, accounting for Milam’s headless condition.
> 
> Milam’s daughter-in-law insisted Milam was murdered. She claimed Malak showed her photographs of the headless corpse, and the neck was cut clean. The Milam family has not attempted to legally challenge the ruling because of the expense, so we’ll never know which way the cat jumps, ulcer or murder.
> 
> Whatever killed him, Milam died three months before the Ives and Henry murders. What are we supposed to believe here, that Clinton conspirators knocked off someone who “had information on the Ives and Henry deaths” three months before Ives and Henry actually died? Wow, talk about a preemptive strike!

Well, if you are decapitated, you are NATURALLY going to die, amirite? What’s the problem? 😛
