When You've Lost Alex Jones
Far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones says he has found “someone way better” than former President Donald Trump to support for president in 2024: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
The InfoWars host and “Stop the Steal” advocate announced on his broadcast this week that he had “pigheadedly” supported the twice-impeached ex-president for years, but those days were long gone.
An outspoken anti-vaxxer, Jones claimed to his audience that he already “disagreed” with the Trump administration’s Operation Warp Speed and the ex-president’s mild-at-best advocacy for the COVID-19 vaccines. However, he felt “we had to keep him in office because of the nightmare scenario” of either a Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden presidency.
Jones was a key MAGA media figure who pushed the “big lie” that Trump lost the 2020 presidential election due to widespread voter fraud, and was present during the Capitol insurrection. Since then, the Justice Department began investigating his role in the riots and he has been subpoenaed by the Jan. 6 House committee, which recently received texts that his lawyers accidentally leaked during his latest Sandy Hook trial.
