No, this is a literal conspiracy.
So is Trump threatening these journalists somehow, or paying them off perhaps?
As I recall, journalists had no difficulties being critical of him before, during, and after his presidency, writing countless of hit pieces without suffering any sort of consequences.
To my knowledge, none of them have been disappeared, sued, or otherwise silenced, the worst that would happen to them was Trump tweeting something mean about them in retaliation.
Why would they be afraid all of a sudden to be critical of him?
One person cannot form a conspiracy. Of course, it only takes one person to invent a conspiracy theory.
And you're the only one to mention Trump in this particular thread.
