Trump’s Support for QAnon
As preposterous as it might seem, the Trump administration has helped to prop up this conspiracy theory by endorsing its proponents and amplifying their messages.
The President has retweeted QAnon supporters, perhaps unwittingly, dozens of times. On one such recent occasion, he shared a video critical of the Transportation Security Administration that originated from a Twitter account called Deep State Exposed that is operated by a QAnon follower. More recently, the President retweeted two accounts that promote the conspiracy theory in order to share allegations against Democrats related to election security and voter fraud. The Washington Post’s headline itself blared, “Trump shares Twitter accounts linked to conspiracy theory QAnon.” QAnon supporters are “overjoyed when Trump does retweet, believing it’s evidence he supports their movement,” according to responses reviewed by the Post.
Perhaps more significant is the President’s eagerness to engage personally with individuals who advance the conspiracy theory. For instance, right wing media personality Bill Mitchell “has regularly used his radio show and Twitter account to boost and legitimize ‘Q,’ the central figure of the QAnon conspiracy theory, sometimes hosting major QAnon believers,” according to Alex Kaplan at Media Matters. Mitchell was among the extremists invited to the White House for its recent Social Media Summit. Another QAnon supporter and conspiracy theorist, Michael Lebron, was photographed with Donald Trump in the Oval Office last summer, according to CNN. The news outlet headline also amplified the encounter, “QAnon-believing ‘conspiracy analyst’ meets Trump in the White House.” ... What can be done? One step, of course, would be for those close to the President to try to prevail upon him to lay off the promotion of QAnon. Members of the media should also press the President on where he stands. This is the time for him to disavow if not condemn QAnon.
I think for myself that Q is poo.
Eric Clanton got three years probation. What you see in the video above is just ONE of the 7 attacks he was FOUND GUILTY OF.
Trump can fire him. Although, the last time he fired an FBI Director, he was on the receiving end of a media crap storm, and a $32 Million rectal exam in the form of a "Special Counsel" that tried to destroy him, his business associates, his loyal staff, and his family.
There has been violence against Trump at almost every event and from everything he has said since he started his original campaign. When he got real to the libs/socialists is when they decided to fight back, literally. He doesn’t have to provoke them, just exist. This is how responsible liberal supporters act. They use idiotic attack tactics. They don’t seem to know any better as while they are performing their trained monkey act for the powers they appear just as moronic as advertised because of it. It ain’t cute, campy, intelligent, or legal. It’s just stupid, like them.
And since they will attack people for their right of the free speech of supporting Trump while demanding theirs, it should be made a hate crime and tack years on to the sentencing rather than just misdemeanor assault. It falls under the criteria of “social group.”

If you’re the FBI, I think you have so much more to worry about before you’d even begin to consider the danger of Q people. Boo!
Don’t forget Media Matters is the propaganda arm of hildabeast/DNC
You are proof that pricks are not just on the outside of porcupines.
I wonder if the SES had anything to do with his being appointed.
Jim, what happened to the “keep Q in the Q thread” rule?
I am not sharing anything pro or anti Q. But I an sharing this as an important news story of the FBI labeling certain people as a threat, and showing how liberal writers agree in such censorship.
<<< “Using similar logic.... “>>>. Great post, Clutch!
Using similar logic, The Boston Tea Party was a “conspiracy”.
We’ve learned the language of tyrants a long time ago, and it’s use to marginalize those patriots with Hope, who simply arm themselves with research and knowledge.
Q CONSPIRES TO EDUCATE -> Using Open Sources = PATRIOT INTEL
FULL STOP.
Otherwise, we lose more than our POTUS, we lose it All.
OK! So the new rule is we can talk about Q, but not anything from 8Chan. Q References on Twitter, etc. are OK.
Don’t worry. It’s okay to post against Q, if you’re depressed, scared and aren’t in to Q researching yourself. The happy hopefuls who Q research are more confined to Chat, I think it is.
It’s okay. Besides, wasn’t it you who gave me a martini tip, years ago? (I could be wrong.)
Looks like this is a q thread by definition, and it’s now in chat/conspiracy. Thanks.
My Martini tip is to use the Vermouth cap to measure the Vermouth. If that was the tip, then I’m your guy.
Thanks, Jim.
