Trump Jr.: Dad's ambassador to the fringe
April 8, 2018 at 8:59 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
Politico: It was far from the first time President Trumps eldest son dabbled in online conspiracy theories, using his 2.7 million Twitter followers to promote questionable or outright false information that, in many cases, even his father had refrained from spreading.
The 40-year-old Trump Jr. has emerged as one of his fathers key ambassadors to the fringe, promoting theories that added drama and visceral energy to the grass-roots right: in this case, the fast-growing theory that tech giants are arrayed against conservatives.
In the recent past, Trump Jr. has spread stories about the deep state to push for the release of a GOP memo on alleged FBI wrongdoing, liked and shared tweets questioning the motives of a Parkland, Florida, student who is pushing for gun control and liked actor James Woods tweet that more known Democrats have murdered people with guns than all @NRA members combined.'
