Trump on New York: ā€œIt’s so bad, so sad to see. He’s a lunatic, and we just have to stop it. These people come in, you never want to see a thing like that happen. And we’ve expressed our opinions very, very strongly. Terrible thing."

It’s easy to underestimate the power of online conspiracy theories and the emotions they can conjure — and it seems Trump himself might be doing so now.

A buried scandal that's haunted Ireland for decades, with excavations now underway for the remains of hundreds of babies at a home for unwed mothers— their remains hidden in a septic tank beneath a housing estate. CNN’s @donie on this painful story.

A brilliant conversation about two important subjects: The particular kind of journalism involved in covering extremism and conspiracy theories, and the impact that covering these subjects has on the journalists themselves.

"On their face, conspiracy theories can seem stupid, like vapid online chatter... But they don’t go away and neither do the people who passionately believe in them. President Trump may be learning that the hard way." –@Donie

The disconnect on Epstein between Trump and his hyper-online base shows that while the president is a prolific poster -- he perhaps isn't as savvy a consumer of social media. Discussion w/@kaitlancollins & @DashaBurns Column from me on this here: https://t.co/LxDCcfIPPw

Either Trump is playing dumb here and hoping he can wish the Epstein obsession away — or perhaps this is a remarkable instance of the 79-year-old president not fully grasping how profoundly he has stoked and encouraged the conspiratorial beliefs of many in his base.
