I understand Travis is selling books. More power to him. Hope he sells a lot.

But no way I am listening to Alex Jones.

He is no friend to Conservatism or to this forum.

I strongly disagree that he is not a friend. Tell that to Ted Neugent, Jerome Corsi, Matt Bracken, Matt Drudge, etc....

I think you just want to censor him which is not conservative.

Actually, his books have been out for several years, so he's on there more as a SME than an author hawking books.

Further, Jones may not be much of a friend to conservatism, but he is a friend to free speech. He runs one of the few high volume outlets that don't "vet" their guests to make sure they won't go "off script," if you know what I mean.

Sure, the guy has a bit of a believability problem, but it's certainly no worse, and arguably less destructive, than the CREDIBILITY problem that has so recently been proven of ALL the mainstream sources.

“He is no friend to Conservatism or to this forum.”

You’re kidding, right? AJ is definitely “interesting” to say the least, and some of what he says is out there. Yet here are some basic AJ principles: free market (true free market); small government; and very Christian and pro-life. Moreover, AJ was an early supporter of Trump, having Trump on his show when most others were not taking Trump seriously.

When I talk to my kids and their conservative friends, they mention things like reddit-the Donald (whatever that is, I don’t do reddit) and Alex Jones on YouTube. I think AJ was one piece of the coalition that gave us President Trump instead of President Clinton.
