      How could it ever be helpful to make up random guesses about a news article?

        This is an Internet comments section. If you’re expecting everything to be 100% productive discussion, you’re going to have a bad time.

      They actually didn’t “specifically” say that. At all. Until editing their comment an hour after being called out.

        They said “I’m going to bet”. That’s literal speculation.

          Okay so you clearly do not know what the words specific and literal mean. Got it.
