After accusing Democrats of trying to destroy Christianity, Eric Trump claimed he was not like a tinfoil hat wearing guy. At a right-wing, pro- Trump event in Missouri on Friday, the son of the former president declared that it was unthinkable that people were doing to this nation. He continued, "They want to destroy Christianity, they want to destroy our families, they want to destroy our history, they want to rewrite our textbooks." This is a war in the United States. He said that Trump wasn't making the comments in a light way. He said he was not like a tinfoil hat wearing guy. There is only one party that is weaponizing the system if anyone thinks they are not. You can watch the clip here. At the QAnon conference today, Eric Trump says Democrats “want to destroy christianity, destroy our families, our children, our history. Guys, this is a cognizant (?) war in this country. I don’t say that lightly. I’m not the tinfoil hat-wearing guy.” pic.twitter.com/5ixBHOTUeI — Ron Filipkowski 🇺🇦 (@RonFilipkowski) November 4, 2022 The footage of Trump's comments went viral on social media.

“However, and I do not say this lightly either, I am wearing a tinfoil codpiece under my pants right now, to protect my precious bodily fluids from demonic possession. Now on sale at the Trump store!” https://t.co/uvrdZM6tDx

As hard as this crap is to watch, we need to know about the lies that are being told and the false grievances being stoked. Such behavior is poisoning the political debate, fanning extremism and undermining so much of what is good about this country. https://t.co/Tqoj0fkGIB
