I think that his career would fall apart because he’d run out of people to rant against. Propagandists need an enemy to disparage or else they don’t really have anything to say; I’ve heard interviews with ex-KGB operatives on the CNN Cold War films in which they said said that they essentially owed their jobs to America; there wouldn’t be an enemy for citizens to tighten their belts to fight against otherwise. Ultimately, I don’t think he wants things to change; conspiracy theories offer some sort of comfort in that they offer a simple way in which to view things which don’t often have black-and-white explanations. Of course, who knows if he actually believes what he says or not? Would conspiracy theorists turn against him, thinking he was only trying to court the conspiracy theorist vote but was really a government agent?
 
“Danger, Will Robertson, Danger!” Lost in Space, we would be!😃
 
I won’t go to YouTube for an answer.

Can anyone type out an answer?

He’s a conspiracy theory peddler (with some of the farthest-out ones I’ve heard) who yells a lot and some people trust him for news for some reason. He also uses his website to sell over-priced (sometimes literally gouged compared to what other sites have them for) health supplements of low potency and varying efficacy and credibility.
 
I think the answer is a little complex. Assuming there’s no Hollywood thriller plot level election fraud, he would have gotten elected because of a majority of the electorate (or at least electoral college) supported his candidacy. That would mean he would at least have considerable public support, which might theoretically trickle down to Congress and state-level offices. What would a country that is divided enough to elect a radio demagogue look like? Maybe not that much different from now, but more polarized and desperate. Trump was able to parlay his previous media experience and exposure, and outrageous comments, into a candidacy, then a presidency. Jones is not known to that many people in the country, especially those who don’t already support a “patriot” position and mindset.

In Jones’ case, having listened to him now and then, I’d say he would withdraw the U.S. from the UN, attempt to use executive orders to overturn gun laws and disband the ATF, disband some other federal agencies, and probably order the justice department to go after left-leaning media. As for economics, I think little would change with foreign trade, outside of some token protectionism - he seems to spend little time discussing economics. Most of this would meet with strong resistance - look at our current seat-warmer’s attempts to “drain the swamp” - and he would probably continue to try to have a strong media presence. In the meantime, he would probably be wise to avoid riding in open-top limos.

The big question would be how much of the federal bureaucracy and “deep state” would resist what he would be trying to do. As a previous poster stated, governing is much harder than being an opposition party. You’re accountable, and can’t just sit in the weeds and throw manure. Also, at some level, you need the consent of the majority of the citizenry. If you look at Trump’s faltering attempts to build the wall, overturn Obamacare, and revise the tax code, it’s pretty clear that if even half the country opposes you, you’re dead in the water.
 
I guess we’d see if it’s all an act or if he’s really against the NWO. Of course, if there really is a NWO he’d be eliminated before taking office… 😛
 
Well,um,might end up being a race to the bottom of the barrel for presidential candidates :confused:
 
He would transfer the Federal bureaucracy to the North Slope of Alaska.
 
What would happen if Alex Jones were president?

Hmm…🍿 :hmmm:

I think things could get pretty interesting, that’s for sure! 😛

Yes he is, of the worst sort.

If some of his ramblings are sincere, as President he’d be kept busy screaming to the intelligence agencies, " NO! Not these! Bring me the REAL reports!"
 
At some point, he would attempt to pass legislation which would remove all the 9/11 memorials (inside job!), and criminalize gay frogs (bisexual salamanders? They’re okay).
