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.

Trump Administration Dragged After U.S. Military Shoots Down One Of Our Own Drones Over Texas

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has long emphasized the "warrior ethos" he expects from the U.S. military but now his leadership (to say nothing of the Trump administration as a whole) is facing criticism after military personnel shot down a drone operated by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) on Thursday in Texas in yet another display of incompetence.

Lawmakers said that the military used a laser to down a CBP drone at Fort Hancock, leading the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to expand flight restrictions near El Paso, Texas. The reason for the laser use remains unclear, but it was the second such deployment in the area in two weeks, despite rules requiring coordination with aviation regulators.
