I'm not entirely sure to what degree Trump believes the conspiracy theories, or just uses them for manipulation. He's definitely unstable to be babbling on and on about his crowd size at the CIA and Martin Luther King's bust not being removed from his office at the black history breakfast.

But, is there any doubt that with conspiracy theorists like Bannon & Flynn that see Islam as something inherently evil that with the next terrorist attack, they're going to massively overreact and try to go police state with it? The way they're openly talking about the media being the enemy from day one, how can there not be a Reichstag fire on the horizon?

I think the ACLU should do an ad with Sandy Hook parents exposing InfoWars as the cesspool it is.

He plays up his conspiracy theories in a three ring circus that would make PT Barnum appalled. All the while draining cash from the pockets of his delusional hatred adoring customers.

The left really needs to do more to discredit people like Jones but the problem is in the minds of his minions bringing proof Jones is a fraud only makes his followers MORE devoted to him. It is tough to reason with people that only believe innuendo and are taught that all facts are fabricated lies.

on this piece of garbage until he scurries back into his dark dark corner. Ideas can be dangerous when put into action and his ideas are dangerous to freedom.
