Notice how the conspiracy theory on the Russia investigation by the right keeps changing?

The previous one was that Ore's wife worked for Fusion Gps. Ore was working on the investigation. Therefore the dossier was made up by Christopher Steele and Fussion GPS. After Glenn Simpson's testimony was released, we have a new one. Without the initiation of an investigation, the unverified and sketchy dossier was taken to the FISA court and a warrant was issued. Now, to believe this one would have to accept that the judge or judges haphazardly issued the warrant, and that an investigation had not been opened after receiving the dossier or any other information form other sources.None of them really stand up to any scrutiny, which is why they keep changing.

The person who believes it sets their mind that X must be true.

Now whatever facts come to light they use them to manufacture or adjust whatever may be leading up to X in their mind.

If something comes up that doesn’t fit the theory they either adjust the theory to fit it or they find a reason to not believe it.
