QAnon believers grapple with doubt, spin new theories as Trump era ends: 'We all got played'
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | Jan. 20, 2021 | Drew Harwell and Craig Timberg

Followers of the extremist ideology QAnon saw their hopes once again dashed Wednesday as President Donald Trump left Washington on the final day of his presidency, without any of the climactic scenes of violence and salvation that the sprawling set of conspiracy theories had preached for years would come.

As Trump boarded Air Force One for his last presidential flight to Florida, many QAnon adherents - some of whom had earlier this month stormed the Capitol in a siege that left at least two QAnon devotees dead and others in jail - began to wonder whether they'd been duped all along.

Also at the time(Before that video) Q had been posting to “follow the White Rabbit”. And just look at what Trump is standing next to in the video.

Trump owns Q. No question about it.

I saw too much of Q’s ‘tricks’ to bother watching this.

Fortunately, a lot of people who bought into it are having the blinders removed from their eyes.

“No other explanation for it.”

Plenty others. Did you know that wasn’t the first time He’d said tip top?

Oct 11, 2017 (several weeks before before Q showed up)

There are other examples, but to claim it’s something DT didn’t say often is incorrect.

Makes as much sense as trusting the GOP, or "the tic toc club" or any government institution.

"Democracy," ...spit ... this outcome is inevitable. Was predicted by the founders.

"We all got played"

No kidding. Riddles and magic eight balls are fun but when you believe they are serious you stopped critical thinking. It was obvious Q was some sort of political operation at least 3 years ago that had zero to do with Trump.

Yes, he was. Others as well. I tried to warn but was treated to that same nastiness. Not going to gloat though. I am sure many are feeling quite lost right now.

At some point it will all come - hopefully.
I’ll hold off on jumping on the Patriot Party bandwagon in the meantime.

I’m very weirded out by all of this.

“You ever hear of Q clearance!!” LOL!

It reminds me of the time DC Insider had a bunch of us fooled that Romney was going to win. That guy disappeared quickly.

I hope next time some anonymous insider starts spinning tales, it will be rejected quickly.

i get that you enjoy throwing a dig at President Trump but that has nothing to do with WHY HRC, BJC, and 0bama are not CHARGED for TREASON or ESPIONAGE as they’ve supplied military tech and funds to America’s enemies. The had committed these crimes LONG before President Trump came on the scene.

try again

Your first paragraph is how I felt about things over the last 2.5 months especially when I was being called a Troll or a Nazi etc. I have appreciated your posts.

thank you

unfortunately, I think a lot of people just had to quit posting what they thought because it was so bad...especially the lawyers. I saw quite a few that appeared to be lawyers who tried to educate people but they got knocked down as well.

The similarities are striking

Old Freepers will remember

Same gibberish

Same disappointment

I am not throwing a dig at President Trump

He did the best he could--I believe that. I am deeply disgusted at the corruption of the Swamp--and I agree it has been there for decades.

If my wife knew how many hours I spent on that Sisyphean effort rather than billing paying clients, I’d end up a permanent couch resident.

Speaking of Sessions—so many Washington insiders wearing masks and I don’t mean covid masks.
