New from me: The viral earpiece conspiracy theory was pushed by coordinated Facebook accounts at the same second this morning.

Then Fox News picked it up. Then, the Trump campaign sent it to your phone.

It's all over the radio, too. Reported as "Biden is insisting on wearing an earpiece". Midnight Writer Sep 2020 #5

Inspect Trump's ears. You have to move that plastic gerbil hair to find them. I would love it. Maraya1969 Sep 2020 #8

So in Trump a supporters’ world the only explanation for Biden doing well is either via drugs or an earpiece. That shows how baffled they are by people who can speak coherently.

BTW, they said the same about Obama. Teleprompter or earpiece.
