YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSince a gunman attacked Donald Trump at a rally, conspiracy theories have flourished on social media: The attack was a false flag, Trump had a gel pack on his ear, Trump went golfing the next day. These are the latest additions to a growing collection of anti-Trump conspiracy theories referred to as "Blue Anon."
I discuss the rise of conspiracies from anti Trump influencers with Mike Rothschild, author of "The Storm Is Upon Us: How QAnon Became a Movement, Cult, and Conspiracy Theory of Everything."
Later, Zach and I disucuss the shooter's "Demolition Ranch" YouTuber T-shirt, the RNC influencers tasked with making the GOP look cool, and other news of the week.
