QAnon's Resurgence and Trump's Connection
QAnon, a conspiracy group flagged as a terror threat by the FBI, is experiencing a renewed rise in popularity. At Trump rallies, signs, music, and salutes associated with QAnon have been appearing, and Trump has acknowledged them. While some dismiss their theories, others genuinely believe in them, including the belief in a global elite running a satanic child sex trafficking ring. In the past, Trump distanced himself from the group, but during this campaign, he has embraced them to mobilize dedicated support. However, as the 2024 election approaches, Trump may need to focus on appealing to independent swing voters instead of relying on QAnon nods.
