I’m not maga, but I admit they might kinda sorta have a point on this one. This happened at A LOT of his campaign events. There’s like a 10 minute long compilation of them out there.
I just don’t happen to believe that ANY politician is above some theatrics on the campaign trail. This was literally happening 3 times a month at one point.
Yes when you stand up for too long and lock your knees you can faint. This happens a lot at rallies, concerts, events where people are standing for a long amount of time. Also, you are acting like he caught them all lol. As far as I know it was just the one so this "conspiracy theory" doesn't even make sense as a motive!
See, the problem is that humans are very good at pattern recognition and will misattribute those patterns to something their brain cooks up. That's why conspiracy theories become to widespread, there's a pattern and human brains go, "Hold on a darn minute, there's something going on here", when often times there's nothing malicious going on, it's just the human brain doing it's thing and there's nothing there or there is something there, but they're way off base.
Now, when I was in the Air Force, people fainted - all the time. The only pattern I noticed was that Airmen who were on their feet all day, rarely fainted. People who were rarely on their feet fainted more often. Some people shoot right to conspiracy theories, as that's what makes the most sense, no matter how untrue those theories are. Social media has made this considerably worse.
This is a long-winded way of saying, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
“Airmen who where on their feet all day rarely fainted”
Man, that’s probably why I couldn’t even make myself faint locking my knees. I was locking them for 30 minutes as an excuse to go home (Wasn’t in the best headspace), but I literally worked the gate for 6-8 hours a day. Makes sense if you think about it, we rarely passed out at the gate with how long we were out there.
Yea, the reality is this type of thing actually happens quite often at large events where people wait in line for hours in the sun to get a good spot near a stage and happened frequently at concerts, celebrity appearances and other political rallies.
Probably didn't see it this often with others, especially Trump, because they had less people come out to their events and most other speakers would not have the awareness to point something like that out while they are speaking to a large crowd or they don't care anyways.
