Alex Jones Throws Trump Under The Bus In Bizarre 2024 Presidential Endorsement

Alex Jones Throws Trump Under The Bus In Bizarre 2024 Presidential Endorsement

After a rough 2021 and 2022 filled with civil court losses, federal investigations and financial hits, conspiracy theorist Alex Jones seems to be pushing his longtime ally, former Republican President Donald Trump, aside.

In a recent appearance on his web series InfoWars, Jones threw his public support behind Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis. Jones made his opinion clear that Trump was only ever a stopgap, while DeSantis is the real deal for him.


You can see Jones' comments here:

Jones began by claiming he "pigheadedly" supported Trump although he always disagreed with Trump's Operation Warp Speed which was supposed to address the COVID-19 pandemic.

Jones declared:

"I thought we had to keep [Trump] in office because of the nightmare scenario if Hillary or Biden got in back before they were officially running."

Jones added:

"With that said, I am supporting DeSantis."
"DeSantis has just gone from being awesome to being unbelievably good."

Then in an appeal to Trump’s Evangelical Christian base, Jones threw Jesus into the narrative.

"And I don’t just watch a man’s actions, as Christ said."
"Judge a tree by its fruits."
"I can also look in his eyes on HD video, and I see the real sincerity.”

He continued:

“This is what Trump should be like."
"And I’ve been hammering this point, and he’s doing it now."
"And we have someone that is better than Trump."
"Way better than Trump.”

People wondered how Trump will react.

DeSantis hasn't officially declared his intention to run for President in 2024, but conservatives and political pundits have floated his name as a likely candidate for the Republican Party.

Although some people thought Alex Jones should also run.

Jones joins a growing circle of former ride-or-dies jumping a seemingly sinking ship.

People have noted the shift.



As of this writing, Trump nor any members of his inner circle have responded to Jones' defection.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
