On Thursday night, after taking flight from the moment of the presidential debate, Donald Trump sat in a city corridor assembly with NBC to explain to the United States why he deserves to be re-elected for a moment, while moderator Savannah Guthrie asked him questions. Especially from white supremacy to COVID-19 and its taxes, a specific exchange actually crystallized the face of the selection electorate. At Joe Biden, they would elect a candidate who believes in science, experience and facts and spend his time as president running for everyone. Americans and Trump, they would be four years older than a guy who throws conspiracy theories that, among other things, his political enemies run a pedophile satanic cult.

“Let me ask you about QAnon,” Guthrie said, referring to the far-right, fucked-up, far-fetched conspiracy theory that a clique of Democratic politicians, Hollywood liberal actors and senior officials, who worship Satan, are running a child sex trafficking network. and the conspiracy opposed to Trump, which provides a day of calculation during which thousands of sect members will be arrested. “It’s this theory that Democrats are a satanic network of paedophiles and that you’re the savior. Now, can you simply, once and for all, claim that this is surely not true and disallow QAnon in its entirety?To repeat, what Guthrie was asking the president of the United States to reject was the surely meaningless and baseless claim that his political and other liberal enemies are leading a satanic sect of child sex trafficking. This is not difficult to report, unless (1) you believe it and/or (2) you count on those deeply disturbed Americans to vote for you.

“I don’t know anything about QAnon,” Trump said.
“I told you, ” replied Guthrie.
“I know very little,” insisted the president. “You told me, but what you tell me doesn’t necessarily make it a reality. I hate to say that. I don’t know anything about it. I know they oppose pedophilia. ” “He added, contradicting their claim that they know nothing about the organization and also giving the impression that they are defenders of the human rights of the madmen on the fringes. ” They fight very hard. But I don’t know Array. I know. I know the antifa, and I know the radical left, and I know how violent and petty they are. And I know how they burn towns through Democrats, not Republicans.
Informing him that Republican Senator Ben Sasse recently said, “QAnon is crazy, and genuine leaders call conspiracy theories conspiracies conspiracy theories,” Guthrie insisted on why he “not only says he is far-fetched and false. “And the answer is that the president thinks QAnon might be on to something:
Trump: Can I be honest? [Sasse] may be right. I just don’t know QAnon.
Guthrie: You know.
Trump: I don’t know. No, I don’t know, I don’t know. Tell me everything.
Guthrie: Let me ask you more.
Trump: Let’s waste the whole series. Start with white supremacy. I’m going to turn him in. Start with anything else. Let’s go. Keep asking me those questions. But let me tell you that what I hear is that they strongly oppose pedophilia and I agree with that. I mean, I agree with that and I absolutely agree with him.
Guthrie: But there is no satanic paedophile cult directed through . . .
Trump: I have no idea. I don’t know.
Guthrie: Don’t you know? Everything is fine.
Trump: No, I don’t know.
Of course, the lifestyle of a satanic sect about child sex trafficking is not the only conspiracy theory the president has amplified. “This week,” Guthrie reminded him, “he retwated to his 87 million fans a conspiracy theory orchestrated by Joe Biden for SEAL Team Six, the Navy SEAL Team Six, to be killed to cover up Bin Laden’s false death. Now, why would you send a lie like that to your subscribers?Trump replied that he “knew nothing” about such a rumor, however, he warned that it might be true and that it would depend on his followers that Array “It was a retweet,” he said. I’m going to put it there. People can, by themselves, “come back,” if Joe Biden planned the special forces assassinations to hide the fact that the government didn’t kill the architect on September 11. “I’m not taking a position. “
“I don’t perceive that,” Guthrie said, giving Trump too much credit. “You are the president. You’re not, like, someone’s crazy guy who can just retwite anything. “
“It’s a retweet,” said Trump, who asks Americans to give him four more years at the White House. “And I do a lot of retweets. And, frankly, because the media is so fake and so corrupt, if there were no social mediaArray. . I couldn’t spread the word. “
Similarly, for those who are still undecided, the president argued Friday that he was not only absolutely insane, but was a qualified idiot:
On Friday, President Donald Trump shared a story from a well-known and well-known satirical news website, using the fake report to blow up Twitter’s handling of questionable accusations against Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. Morning was published through Bathroughlon Bee – which is presented online as “the most productive satirical site in the world” – and said Twitter had “closed its entire social network” on Thursday to prevent the dissemination of negative data about Biden.
“Wow, this has never been done in history,” Trump tweeted. Why is Twitter doing this?Pay more attention to Sleepy Joe and Big T. “
