Trump Is the Godfather of the Conspiracy Right

0:00Just because Donald Trump has a transactional relationship with Israel doesn't mean that he isn't just as anti-Semitic as Tucker Carlson or Candace Owens or Nick Fuentes. The only reason that Trump loves Israel so much is because Benjamin Netanyahu, like many other world leaders, knows that they can get whatever they want out of Trump by simply kissing his ass. Countries are calling us up, kissing my ass. They are dying to make a deal. Please, please, sir, make a deal. I'll do anything. I'll do anything, sir. Just look at some of the things that Trump has said about Jewish people in public. He's repeatedly leaned on some of the most anti-Semitic tropes in the book.

0:43He said that Jewish Americans who vote for Democrats are disloyal and hate Israel and their religion, basically reducing Jewish identity to a political loyalty test because Trump only likes pro-Trump Jews. I wasn't treated properly by the voters who happen to be Jewish. I don't know, do they know what the hell is happening? If I don't win this election, and the Jewish people would really have a lot to do with that if that happens, because at 40%, that means 60 % of the people are voting for the enemy. Israel, in my opinion, will cease to exist within two years, and I believe I'm 100 % right. He's even suggested the Jews are primarily driven by money and power, as if nobody else on the planet is, and praised himself for being good for the Jews because of business and even used terms like Shylock to describe financiers.

1:36He hosted Nick Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago for crying out loud, a holocaust-denying Mexican white supremacist, and refused, refused to denounce Tucker Carlson when he was given the chance. What role do you think Tucker Carlson should play in the Republican Party and the conservative moving forward? Well, I found him to be good. I mean, he's said good things about me over the years. I think he's good. We've had some good interviews, but you can't tell him who to interview. I mean, if he wants to interview Nick Fuentes, I don't know much about him, but if he wants to do it, get the word out. It should be absolutely clear that Trump is one of them.

2:13Because without these neo-Nazi wannabe conspiracy whack jobs, Trump wouldn't be president and he knows it better than anybody. These are Trump's useful idiots. and if you think that he's a moron like I do, just you wait and see what kind of chaos and insanity his evil demon spawn are capable of going into 2026 midterms and the 2028 general election for president of the United States. Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Nick Puentes, Megyn Kelly, Alex Jones, Steve Bannon, the list goes on forever. Elon Musk with his double Nazi salute at Trump's inauguration for crying out loud.

2:52This is Trump's core team, and they all dabble in blaming the Jews from the crucifixion of Christ to September 11th and the COVID pandemic and beyond. Why don't you go talk about Jewish space lasers? And really, why don't you f*** off? How about that? Marjorie Taylor Greene is another perfect example of Trump's political children who openly subscribes to Jewish conspiracy theories. Marjorie Taylor Greene loved talking about everything from Jewish space lasers starting the 2018 California wildfires to becoming the keynote speaker at an event hosted by Mexican white supremacist Nick Fuentes. These are all Trump's people.

3:29Well, I mean, except for Marjorie Taylor Greene and Elon Musk. These two clowns alone have cost Donald Trump more headaches in 2025 than any other Democrat could have ever hoped for in their wettest and wildest socialist dreams. Precisely as I said in my op-ed at Newsweek over two weeks ago, Elon was the first to tell us that Trump was on the Epstein list. And Marjorie Taylor Greene turned on Trump for the exact same reason. Republican Thomas Massey has also done much more to damage Trump than any Democrat by leading the way on the Epstein front. Yet Trump continues to call it a Democrat hoax.

4:04Even the late Charlie Kirk was calling for the Epstein files to be released. That was, you know, until Trump told him to back off, which he did. The dark truth of the matter is that a lot of these people who peddle mainstream conservative conspiracy theory brain rot believe that Jeffrey Epstein was working on behalf of Mossad and the Israeli government, running a global blackmail operation to control powerful Americans like Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, all to give leaders like Benjamin Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin leverage on the West. It's a story that would make for an absolutely epic screenplay, but unfortunately the real world isn't governed by fantasy.

4:40Conspiracy culture is. That brings us to Laura Loomer for a second, a conspiracy nutjob in her own right. Just one who happens to brand herself as aggressively pro-Israel. Because Laura Loomer spends endless energy distancing herself from Marjorie Taylor Greene and the conspiracy fringe, even as she defends Donald Trump with near religious devotion. Her conspiracy theory of choice is that Qatar has secretly bankrolled the conspiracy right, yet somehow she conveniently looks past Trump accepting a luxury 747 jet from Qatar and green-lighting Qatari training operations at an American Air Force base in Idaho.

5:16To her, the conspiracy only matters when it's pointing away from Trump. When it points directly at him, it evaporates into willful ignorance. This is how Trump built his perpetually crumbling empire. By simply weaponizing his own corrupt, dishonest, and ignorant instincts, he created an entire movement based on paranoia, scapegoating, and greed that's beginning to turn on him like Frankenstein's monster. He's old, he's frail, he's shrinking, he's increasingly incompetent due to his old age, and MAGA can sense the weakness, probably consciously and subconsciously, whether they want to admit it or not.

5:50They're realizing that they don't need him anymore, that his loyalty has always been transactional and conditional. it works both ways and that the same conspiratorial thinking that elevated him to the highest office in the world is eating him alive before our very own eyes. Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? There was a time when conspiracy theories were just as American as apple pie on the 4th of July with fireworks and hot dogs and cold beer. But today, conspiracy theories can get you killed. Just look at that woman who stormed the Capitol building on January 6th, Ashley Babbitt, shot by a U.S.

6:23Capitol police officer. How about 30-year-old Brian Cole Jr. arrested in December of 25 on charges that he planted two pipe bombs outside the Republican and Democratic National Committee headquarters in D.C.? He told investigators that he did it because he thought the 2020 election had been stolen. Gee, I wonder where he got a dumb idea like that. If you count the legal votes, I easily win. If you count the illegal votes, they can try to steal the election from us. This brain rot is eating us from within, and our terrible president is to blame for all of it. And don't forget, it was conspiracy theories about Obama's birth certificate that Trump weaponized into his platform to secure the GOP nomination in 2016.

7:08He is one of them. And the sooner the diehard MAGA hat Republicans realize it, the better.
