Donald Trump – Conspiracy Theories Believes Myths

Donald Trump, the ex-president of the USA, is popularly known for his conspiracy theories. As you may know, a single page is not enough to explore all those theories. Some of the theories were believed by him, while others were initiated by him. People say he is into conspiracy theories to grab attention, while some say he lacks knowledge. His period in office is considered the golden age of conspiracy theories. Continue reading this article for some crazy and interesting conspiracy theories.

• • Conspiracy Theory – Wind turbines cause cancer.

    Fact: No, not true

    Conspiracy theories often grab more attention and make people search for the real reason behind events. Some of the conspiracy theories created by Donald Trump are vague and not even worth investigating for the truth. One of the most obscure theories is his denial of climate change. Despite the rising global temperatures and sea levels each year due to human activities, Trump denied it publicly without much thought. He was frequently in the spotlight for his stance on climate change, famously stating, “I don’t believe it” during a media conference. Even with all the statistics about rising sea levels and global warming, he proudly maintained his disbelief. But don’t burst into laughter yet—wait until you hear the next one. Trump also promoted the theory that wind turbines cause cancer. While wind turbines are known to create noise and be a nuisance to some, people like Trump took it to the extreme by claiming that they cause cancer.

  • Conspiracy Theory – Belief that vaccines cause autism.

    Fact: No, not true

    Another theory he promoted is that vaccines cause autism. He briefly explained instances where he had encountered many children who were affected after receiving vaccines. One case he cited was of a two-year-old who got vaccinated, developed a high fever a week later, and then was diagnosed with autism. I know, if you’re one of those who haven’t heard this theory before, it might make you question how he ever became President. However, Trump’s assertion was debunked by neurosurgeon Ben Carson and studies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, both of which state that there is no connection between vaccines and autism. Sometimes, I wonder how he manages to involve conspiracy theories in everything. These theories didn’t have any real impact on people but instead made us question his intelligence.

  • Conspiracy Theory – COVID-19 and QAnon.

    Fact: No, not true

    The conspiracy theory that rocked the world in 2020 involved COVID-19, the elections, and QAnon. Trump almost provoked everyone with his conspiracy theories. One of the most popular theories he promoted was that the coronavirus was a man-made virus, intentionally spread by China. As the saying goes, “A lie repeated a thousand times becomes the truth,” and many people came to believe that COVID-19 was a biological weapon created by China to start a war. As a result, many countries boycotted Chinese products, apps, and fostered widespread animosity toward China. Later, Trump claimed that the coronavirus was not a deadly virus and that only 6% of the deaths were directly caused by it, with the remaining 94% of deaths attributed to pre-existing serious health conditions. Initially, he referred to the virus as a deadly weapon, but soon after, he downplayed its significance, stating it wasn’t a big deal. His views could change instantly based on the situation, often shifting for his own benefit.

  • Conspiracy Theory – Osama bin Laden death.

    Fact: No, not true

    Conspiracy theories are not as concerning when they are believed or started by ordinary people, but they gain more popularity when accepted by famous figures like politicians and actors. Donald Trump, during his presidency, promoted many conspiracy theories without considering the consequences. Known for not taking responsibility for his words, he proved this once again with a retweet. The retweet was about a baseless conspiracy theory involving Joe Biden, Navy SEALs, and Osama bin Laden. When NBC News host Savannah Guthrie confronted him about retweeting that the death of Osama bin Laden was a hoax and about the QAnon conspiracy theory, she asked, “Why would you send a lie like that to your followers?” He responded, “I know nothing about it, and it was just a retweet.” When the controversy ignited, Guthrie retorted, “You are the president, not someone’s crazy uncle who can just retweet whatever.” Trump showed no shame in his statements and was known for disrespecting the media throughout his time in office.

  • Conspiracy Theory – Voter impersonation.

    Fact: No, not true

    • Many believed that Donald Trump was possessed by the presidential position and had difficulty accepting defeat. Even after losing the 2020 election, he claimed that voter fraud occurred and spread a vast conspiracy about illegal votes and ballots. This wasn’t the first time he made such claims; in 2016, he asserted, without evidence, that between 3 to 5 million people voted illegally for Hillary Clinton. When his family and cabinet members were found to be registered in multiple states, he dismissed it as an “oversight,” not fraud. After all the investigations, no evidence was found to support Trump’s assertions. Yet, he continues to insist that he won the 2016 popular vote, despite losing by nearly 3 million votes. Unashamed of his actions, he persists in this claim.

    • Throughout his life, Donald Trump has created many conspiracy theories whenever he couldn’t accept facts or face reality. He seemed to insert himself into every famous theory, either proposing or agreeing with them without evidence. From Osama bin Laden and Barack Obama to Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, he didn’t leave anyone out, even after their deaths. Trump believed that the Navy SEAL team had killed a body double, not Osama bin Laden. He also retweeted a theory suggesting that Osama might still be alive and that the Navy SEAL team responsible for the operation may have been killed by Biden and Obama.

  • Conspiracy Theory – Trump Tower Wiretapping Allegations.

    Fact: No, not true

    He promoted many conspiracy theories regarding Barack Obama, which gained significant attention and led many people to believe them. It all started with the claim that Obama was not a native American, which led to questions about his presidential eligibility. In response, Barack Obama eventually produced his birth certificate to resolve the citizenship issue. In 2017, Donald Trump posted on Twitter claiming that former President Barack Obama had wiretapped his phones at Trump Tower during the 2016 presidential campaign. However, when the FBI and the Justice Department confirmed that there were no records of wiretapping, Trump denied the allegations until the very end. Even after the issue was resolved, when asked if he regretted the tweet, he said, “Not much, honestly, not much.” He also involved Obama in the “Spygate” conspiracy, suggesting that Obama had placed a spy in the 2016 presidential campaign for political purposes. Without providing much evidence, Trump claimed that Professor Stefan Halper was paid large sums of money by Obama and Hillary Clinton to interfere in the election. As someone who often speaks without thinking, Trump continued to make the same mistakes throughout his life.

  • Conspiracy Theory – QAnon.

    Fact: No, not true

    • The Corona and QAnon conspiracy theories, which were promoted by Donald Trump, not only had political benefits but also led to terrorism. The QAnon conspiracy theory, in particular, became a major source of domestic terrorism as it involves political leaders from the Democratic Party, Hollywood elites, U.S. government officials, and various individual groups. Some of the frequently mentioned names include Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and billionaire George Soros. It is shocking that people believe this anonymous theory, which emerged seemingly out of nowhere, has the power to incite terrorism. Many adherents believe that high-ranking officials within the Democratic Party are running a child trafficking ring and conspiring against Donald Trump. Trump, in numerous interviews, stated that he is pleased that people like him but claimed not to know much about the issues related to QAnon. Despite the theory being recognized as a domestic threat, Trump continued to engage with and retweet QAnon followers. Rather than opposing the theory, he promoted and even endorsed some of its ideas, while countless other conspiracy theories about Trump also emerged.

    • When the news broke that Donald Trump and his wife tested positive for the coronavirus, both people and conspiracy theorists believed it was a move to downplay the seriousness of the virus and to showcase his “miraculous” recovery. When he said, “We will get through this together,” some speculated that if you break down “TOGETHER,” it spells out “TO GET HER.” BOOM! Many people believed this was a veiled message targeting Hillary Clinton and liberal elites, tied to the QAnon conspiracy. While it’s possible that Trump and his wife were genuinely affected, given that we never saw him wear a mask at events, the situation became a conspiracy due to the pattern of lies he had previously told.

    • Another conspiracy theory is that he purposely got infected with the coronavirus in order to announce the vaccine just before the election to gain more votes. Sounds fishy, right? He contracted the virus, then recovered, and suddenly a vaccine was found! Whether it’s timing, coincidence, or something pre-planned, it gives conspiracy theorists a lot to work with. We’ve seen many instances where he was caught lying, and as a result, many people are tired of his new conspiracy theories. He’s a person who seems to find theories on almost anything. People around the world have even referred to him as a “walking lie.” However, the series of lies and conspiracies helped solidify his political base.

    • During the 2020 presidential debate, one of the conspiracies that gained attention was that Trump purposely infected Biden with COVID-19. This theory became a hot topic, with people speculating that President Trump tested positive and attended the debate just to spread the virus. Additionally, he arrived late to the event, which some linked to the theory. The series of COVID-related conspiracies involving Trump still hasn’t come to an end, and this includes the vaccine as well.

  • Conspiracy Theory – Epstein didn’t kill himself

    Fact: No, not true

    • The suicide of Jeffrey Epstein remains a mystery and has inspired many conspiracy theorists to question the involvement of high-profile individuals, especially due to the numerous sex scandals surrounding him. Although the medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide, numerous conspiracy theories have emerged. Given that Trump has been accused of sexual misconduct by multiple women and Epstein was known to have profited from blackmailing government officials, many have linked his death to figures like Donald Trump and Bill Clinton. Opponents of Trump popularized the hashtag #TrumpBodyCount, suggesting that the president was involved in Epstein’s death. Meanwhile, Trump amplified the theory that the convicted sex offender was killed by Bill Clinton. However, both theories lacked credible evidence and are widely considered to be just conspiracies.

    • Former Trump publicist Alan Marcus believes that Trump proposes conspiracy theories not to win elections but as part of his exit strategy. Trump often spreads these myths to serve his own interests, relying more on unreality than on the truth. He enhances these theories to sow doubt, protect his pride, and strengthen his political base. While many may not believe it, this approach has continued to work for a portion of his supporters. According to a POLITICO/Morning Consult poll, 7 in 10 Republicans believed that the election was stolen or rigged. It is truly disheartening that he did not win the election this time and has continued to create more conspiracy theories. After witnessing many events, the American people decided to elect a new president this year, marking the end of an era of conspiracies. Even though he still continues to propose many conspiracy theories, most are no longer taken seriously. If some people think we are working for the opposing party, I have no comment other than, “The position of President deserves better leadership.”
