    Trump floats conspiracy theory, without evidence, about plane ‘loaded with thugs’ – By Ben Gittleson (ABC News) / Sept 1 2020

    It was the latest in a long list of conspiracy theories Trump has promoted.

    President Donald Trump on Tuesday provided no evidence for a conspiracy theory he promoted the day before about a supposed plane full of black-clad protesters he claimed had aimed to disrupt the Republican convention last week.

    Trump said in a Monday interview with Fox News that “people that are in the dark shadows” have “control” over his Democratic opponent for the presidency, former Vice President Joe Biden.

    “What does that mean?” the right-wing host, Trump ally Laura Ingraham, asked. “That sounds like a conspiracy theory.”

    Trump went on: “We had somebody get on a plane from a certain city this weekend, and in the plane it was almost completely loaded with thugs wearing these dark uniforms, black uniforms with gear and this and that. They’re on a plane.” The president did not provide any connection in his story to Biden.
