Donald Trump has fanned the flames of conspiracy theories surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy after revealing who he thinks fired the fatal shot.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0US<\/a>\u00a0President, 78, made another 80,000 pages of material pertaining to the infamous murder public last Monday (17 March), promising the information would be ‘very interesting’.<\/p>\n

Although a lot of people were hoping for some\u00a0bombshell revelations to emerge<\/a>, most readers thought the declassified documents\u00a0were a bit of a disappointment<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An expert explained that he believes the\u00a0JFK<\/a>\u00a0files had been kept under lock and key for the last 62 years to\u00a0preserve intelligence-gathering systems<\/a>\u00a0employed by the CIA, rather than because of the contents.<\/p>\n

However, one document which people were keeping an eye out for was apparently\u00a0not included in the dump<\/a>, so\u00a0conspiracy theorists<\/a>\u00a0have still had something to run with over the last seven days.<\/p>\n

The official version of events is that on 22 November 1963, JFK was shot in the head while driving through Dallas, Texas in an open-topped car by Lee Harvey Oswald.<\/p>\n

The shooter was arrested after firing three shots in 8.6 seconds from the Texas School Book Depository building at the\u00a0vehicle<\/a>\u00a0which JFK, Jackie Kennedy, Texas Governor John Connally, and his wife Nellie were in, police said.<\/p>\n

But just two days before his trial, Oswald was shot dead by nightclub owner Jack Ruby…which is something that has never sat well with a lot of people.<\/p>\n

Trump<\/a>\u00a0has now shared his personal opinion on the assassination of the 35th president of the United States, who served from 1961 until his death at the age of 46.<\/p>\n

Over the weekend, he sat down with\u00a0OutKick’s\u00a0<\/em>founder Clay Travis onboard Air Force One to chew the fat about current affairs and his thoughts on who killed JFK.<\/p>\n

OutKick<\/em>\u00a0is a US\u00a0sports<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0political<\/a>\u00a0commentary website owned by Fox Corporation which is part of the Trump administration’s ‘new media’ scheme.<\/p>\n

When asked if he believed that Oswald pulled the trigger, the President\u00a0replied<\/a>: “I do and I\u2019ve always felt that.<\/p>\n

Trump then added: “But of course, was he helped?”<\/p>\n

There’s a host of conspiracy theories surrounding the assassination, including allegations that the mafia and the CIA were somehow involved.<\/p>\n

However, all the evidence points to Oswald, 24, acting alone – despite him telling police he was ‘just a patsy’ before he was also shot dead.<\/p>\n

It seemed US officials hoped that releasing the files would finally put all of the speculation surrounding JFK’s murder to bed, but it appears as though it’s only piqued people’s interest even more.<\/p>\n

Trump told Travis that he thought the newly released files ‘turned out to be somewhat unspectacular’, adding: “And maybe that’s a good thing.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
