Conspiracy theories have always been part of Trump’s political game plan. Starting with the ‘birtherism’ to the ‘Deep State,’ to ‘Hilary Clinton’s pedophile ring,’ Trump used it to rile up his base. Now, the Epstein files are one conspiracy he can’t control.
On his MSNBC show, Ali Velshi illustrated how Trump’ “carefully cultivated an alliance with America’s conspiracy-minded fringe.”
“Even his most loyal supporters are seeing Trump for what he has always been,” Velshi said. “Just another rich guy in power now, protecting himself.”
Now that Trump is angrily trashing some of his most loyal supporters — calling them ‘weaklings’, ‘stupid’ and ‘foolish’ because they’re pressing him on releasing the Epstein files, he’s causing further damage to his base.
Even usually outspoken MAGA loyalists such as Joe Rogan have turned on the President over the Epstein files.
