I wonder if a recognizable percentage will still think Trump is infallible, but that he has been replaced by a replicant/body double and that all post-epstein footage of him is AI faked.

it's important to remember how untethered to reality these people are and that this makes their behavior unpredictable. many legit thought JFK was going to rematerialize.

They didn't think JFK would come back from the dead.

They thought JFK Jr. (John-John) would reveal that he didn't actually die in that plane crash in 1999.

while the more normal-ish "JFK Jr. will reveal he faked his death" faction was probably what passes for mainstream Q, there was a "JFK will also be resurrected" supernatural messianic faction of Q present for The Great Disappointment 2.

Two weeks after hundreds of people gathered in Dallas to witness what they believed was going to be the return of John F. Kennedy and JFK Jr., another large crowd gathered in downtown Dallas once again in the vain hope of seeing the former president resurrected.

The group has been in Dallas since the beginning of the month when they initially gathered based on the prediction that JFK was going to be resurrected on Nov. 2.

As Q’s followers Balkanize into new factions, Protzman’s group has separated itself from the old majority in a few ways. Among them is the idea that JFK Sr. is also coming back — at the age of 104

Amazing, holy shit.

I think the QAA podcast did an episode on this faction, but its been a while and too many factions to cover

Yeah I'd imagine the loonier bunch is floating around in the aether of Q shit while those more in touch with reality are probably like "ummm wtf".

The lady in charge of Project Camelot (can't remember her name, crazy alien lizard shape shifting type conspiracy) thinks Trump is a clone that is somehow acting out/malfunctioned/etc
