Many of Trump ’s supporters live in a colorful and exciting universe not burthen by the confines of reality . Among their favored hobbies is inventing conspiracy about their choose candidate ’s opponent , Hillary Clinton , and until last night we had every reason to think Trump supporters would believe just about anything .
To witticism : Earlier this month , rumors abound that the Democratic hopeful was wearing an earphone during an NBC assembly . ( She did not . ) Mediaitereportsthe rumor was started by actor James Wood , and then spread to Info Wars and the Drudge Report .
Days afterwards , when Clinton fell ill withwalking pneumoniaa TV surfaced of her fainting . With no grounds whatsoever , it was determine by Trump jockstrap that she wasaddicted to benzodiazepine , drunk and suffer from seizures , in the early microscope stage of dementia , coping with Parkinson ’s disease , and possiblya reptile - human in camouflage . Further conspiracies focused on a small-arm of metal allegedly dropped by Clinton or her nurse , concluding it was achunk of a leg brace , acolostomy bag clip , ora cry for help for the candidate to be rescue from the cabal - similar DNC .
Of course these all piggyback off the whimsey the Clinton is , and always has been , some form of cyborg . An estimation found even in Trump ’s ownFacebook - based attack advert .
All of these hypotheses are astoundingly far - fetched , and yet still found sustenance among at least a few of Trump ’s delegates . So what does it take for people with a creative interpretation of facts to see an obvious prevarication ?
Early this morning , Info Warsdrew attentionto a “ hidden equipment ” under the back of Mrs. Clinton ’s wearable . Was it another earpiece ? “ An tool that institutionalise impulses to the mentality to alleviate symptom of Parkinson ’s disease ” ? Info Wars concluded nothing but threads began seem on 4chan ’s /pol/ gameboard as well as on pro - Trump Twitter news report .

Hearteningly , the “ secret gimmick ” was summarily send away by many as what it actually is : the transmitter pack of a lavalier mike .
Anyone ascertain the debate last night is aware both candidates were equip with both a podium - climb mic and a clipping - on lav :
The telegram of a bathroom mic is hidden underneath the wearer ’s vesture where it connects to a transmitter .
While the Alex Jones - helmed Info Wars may have never seen one of these before , it appear at least a few of Trump ’s admirer online have , and were agile to call horseshit — in spite of crackpot hypothesis that the bulge was some sort of blood gang , electrical input apparatus , colostomy grip , a bomb , or , of course , an earphone .
If marginally so , this country is less hopeless than previously thought .
