You know the old saying: "Who benefits?" [View all]

When trying to solve a murder or other crime.

The way Trump *immediately* jumped on the Kirk killing, just seemed so unlike him--since when does he care this much about anyone besides himself?!? It just stinks. Sure, he's a depraved opportunistic jackal, looking to exploit anything for his own benefit, but this whole thing just feels too perfectly constructed.

But I can't figure out how they might have gotten this kid to do their bidding. So, most likely they just took advantage of the opportunity. But it feels so very off, I can't shake it.
