    I don’t know about that. You should listen to the Knowledge Fight episodes featuring the Alex Jones trial. I have a feeling it’s going to be something like that.

      I’m just gonna ask you to take a moment and think about the gulf of disparity between these two figures in real terms. One ran a rather successful conspiracy grift show and the other is the former president, on trial for inciting others to attempt overthrowing an election. The fact that you’re even comparing the two as if people will drop Trump as readily as they did Jones, when he is still the front runner for candidacy by an enormous margin while gearing up to go on trial for treason is exactly the kind of underestimation I’m talking about.

          I mean Alex Jones’s attorneys didn’t fare much better when they accidentally leaked all of Jones’s texts to the prosecution.

        It’s less that and more two self absorbed narcissists who have been drinking their own Kool aid for WAY too long.
