QuotePresident Donald Trump defended his amplification of a laughable QAnon conspiracy theory claiming the Navy SEAL team who killed Osama bin Laden only killed a body double.
Earlier this week, former SEAL Team 6 member and Trump supporter Robert O'Neil swatted down the conspiracy theory after the president retweeted a QAnon believer who has been pushing the claim. During Trump's intense town hall with Savannah Guthrie, the NBC anchor brought this up and asked him: "Why would you send a lie like that to your followers?"
"That was a retweet," Trump answered. "That was an opinion of somebody and that was a retweet. I'll put it out there, people can decide for themselves."
"You're the president!" Guthrie interjected. "You're not someone's crazy uncle who can retweet whatever."

Let's say for argument sake Trump was tweeting a conspiracy theory. How is that any different than the media and the conspiracy theories they push? To paraphrase her own words, " You are the media not someone's crazy uncle!"

I'm not sure he even knows the truth yet, his handlers are keeping him in the dark as long as possible.
