In a segment featuring Eric Trump on Saturday, Watters complimented the conspiracy which has been designated a domestic terrorism threat by the FBI
Q promoters Jesse Watters and Eric Trump. Photo: Patrick McMullan via Getty Image Fox News’ Saturday night host Jesse Watters appears to forming an intriguing opinion on QAnon, the conspiracy theory that is sweeping the older, less internet-savvy members of Facebook nation.
From that informed stance six months ago, Watters’ opinion on the ever-evolving theory — positing that a mysterious administration official is dropping anonymous tips about President Trump’s efforts to hold off a cabal of Satanic child sex-traffickers running the deep state — has changed quite considerably.
Unlike in December, the Fox News host was not speaking to a Q-skeptical guest: In June, Eric Trump posted a message promoting the conspiracy on the day of his father’s disastrous rally in Tulsa.
The promotion of a baseless conspiracy deemed a potential terrorism threat on the major conservative network in a TV hit featuring the president’s son shows just how rampant the conspiracy’s growth has been since it crept onto 4chan in October 2017.
