Matt Gertz on Right’s False Flag Theory: Trump ‘Opened Up the Flood Gates’ to Conspiracy Theories

RUSH EXCERPT:

O'DONNELL: "Matt, if you couldn’t see me, I pulled all my hair out while I was listening to those things. Barack Obama probably sent it to himself, Hillary Clinton probably sent it to herself, there’s radical people on all sides. But the problem, Matt, is they pick this up from somewhere. Nobody invented this stuff."
GERTZ: "I think Alex Jones’ conspiracy is spreading at this point. Conspiracy theories aren’t new to the right, but the false flag nonsense used to be sort of cordoned off on the fringes. People like Alex Jones and his ilk. The president was, you know, became a major political figure in virtue of pushing a racist conspiracy theory about Barack Obama, and that really opened up the floodgates."
