Aren’t you contradicting your previous comment to the effect that conspiracy theorists wont be reassured so why should the government bother to speak out? That was basically what you were saying. So is the government speaking out on this or not bothering to? Which one is it?
Certain politicians have already made statements, obviously, because Louis Gohmert is referenced as doing so in the article (Ted Cruz did too).
The point is, it doesn’t matter. Conspiracy kooks don’t form their beliefs rationally, so you can’t reason them out of them. There isn’t any point to catering to them, you won’t change their minds anyway.
