Now we know why nobody cares about Donald Trump’s alleged second assassination attempt: it’s all Sean “Diddy” Combs’ fault.
Fox News has gone from reporting factual news to peddling full-blown conspiracy theories. Fox host Maria Bartiromo told her viewers that Diddy’s arrest was an orchestrated plan to take the attention away from the second “assassination attempt” on the disgraced former president’s life.
Per Raw Story:
“Don’t you find it ironic, Miranda, that once again they take that same strategy out and that is change the conversation?” Bartiromo asked Australian columnist Miranda Devine.
“The timing of the P. Diddy arrest? Please. They must have had the P. Diddy arrest on the shelf waiting to take it off the shelf for when they needed it,” she alleged of the three-count indictment against the rapper, which includes an extensive racketeering operation.
“And yesterday, boy, oh boy did they need it because the questions were spiking everywhere as far as how it is possible that another assassination attempt happened, that another would be assassin was within a couple of hundred yards of President Trump,” claimed Bartiromo.
“As we’re all asking these questions, boom, they take P. Diddy in and now we’re all talking about that, take it off the front page. This [is the] strategy over and over again. I saw right through it as soon as it happened,” she said.
WHAT?
Republicans Love A Good Conspiracy Theory
Well, Bartiromo failed to tell her viewers that people are no longer interested in Trump’s second “assassination” attempt because the Secret Service revealed that 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh didn’t even get a shot off and ran away after he was scared off.
Republicans have been stuck in conspiracy land since Trump became the leader of the party, pushing other baseless claims like legal Haitian immigrants eating the pets of Springfield, Ohio natives.
These people have lost their minds.
