Why Alex Jones Supports Most Everything Donald Trump Does

It's no secret that Alex Jones, a far-right conspiracy theorist, has a strong alignment with former President Donald Trump. This alignment has been cemented over time, driven by both mutual benefits and shared ideologies. To understand their relationship, it is essential to examine the roots of Jones's support for Trump.

Political Alignment and Money

Alex Jones primarily makes his living from a devoted but gullible audience that believes in his conspiracy theories. Many of these theories are politically right-wing, and several of the most notable examples include:

Pizzagate: A fabricated story that attempted to implicate certain Democratic figures in a pedophilia ring. QAnon: A loosely organized movement that envisions a right-wing savior who will save the world from a liberal 'paedo plot'. Sandy Hook: A conspiracy theory that claims the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School was faked to remove gun rights.

The narratives promoted by these theories cater to the more right-wing audience, which happens to be a significant demographic in Trump's base. For examples, the idea that Republicans are 'gun-crazy' compared to Democrats, the notion that George Soros is a communist plotting to take over the world, and the belief in a globalist agenda further reinforce this alignment.

The Marriage of Convenience

The relationship between Alex Jones and Donald Trump can be described as a 'marriage of convenience'. Jones's fans resonate with Trump's rhetoric and policies, and in return, they are willing to support Jones when he promotes similar conspiracy theories. Conversely, Jones supports Trump because his followers are likely to buy into and support his content if they feel affiliated with him. This mutual support provides a financial incentive, as both can benefit from one another's followings.

Right-Wing Conspiracy Theorist

Alex Jones is often described as a far-right conspiracy theorist. His primary source of income comes from Trump's base, and few outside this group would be willing to support him for financial gain or as a form of entertainment. Jones frequently praises Trump, much like other right-wing figures, to maintain the loyalty and support of his audience.

Shared Vision of America

Both Trump and Alex Jones advocate for an 'America First' approach, leading to their mutual support. Here are some key points that highlight their similarities:

Support for Trump: If you believe in American and American interests first, you are more likely to support President Trump. Vision of Reality: Both Trump and Jones have a view that rich white males are picked on, and there is a conspiracy of varying minorities to keep the white man down and stop American billionaires from becoming as rich as Saudi princes.

They share the belief that America needs to be 'made great again,' a phrase adopted from Trump's campaign slogan. This shared vision further strengthens their alliance.

A Closer Look at Alex Jones

Alex Jones is often portrayed as a buffoon who enriches himself at the expense of his audience. His show is filled with 'sensational' claims about various conspiracies, including the Jews, Masons, Illuminati, lizard people, world-wide coordinated pedophilia, and big foot. These narratives are crafted to be as shockingly sensational as possible, driving his followers to purchase products from his website.

His divorce testimony revealed that his ex-wife claimed he was not a fit parent, specifically highlighting his online behavior. This behavior, while unusual, is a testament to the extreme nature of the content he produces. His whole show is designed to appeal to white, uneducated racists who are looking for someone to blame for their perceived ills.

Bottom line, Alex Jones is nothing more than a con man who has never contributed anything of value to the world.

Conclusion

From the alignment of political beliefs to the mutual financial benefits, Alex Jones and Donald Trump have established a strong relationship. Their shared vision of America and similar conspiracy theories further cement their partnership. While it is easy to dismiss both as far-right madmen, their relationship highlights the power of conspiracy theories in shaping public opinion.
