Conspiracy theorist? edit

What conspiracy theories has Butler promoted? I could be mistaken but I don't see any mention of this in the article, however Butler is included in the category American conspiracy theorists. I am removing CT category for now. Yodabyte (talk) 01:36, 10 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

That is probably a reference to the Business Plot which is described in the article.Historian932 (talk) 17:30, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Actually it looks like he was surpassed by Chesty Puller.Historian932 (talk) 17:32, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
