2) Watergate
Back in 1972, a lot of people voiced so-called “insane” theories about how some of the highest ranking Republicans were trying to get a political edge by spying on Democrats from the infamous Watergate Hotel. As it turns out, that was actually happening! It took two years for the truth to be revealed to the public. When tape records were leaked, President Richard Nixon was linked to the scandal and eventually resigned.
The lesson? Never trust a man who tells you he’s not a crook.
