It was the week of April 25-May 1,2011
Potential candidate Donald Trump was leading the GOP polls and runner up Mitt Romney by nearly 26%. He had been pushing his birther theories for the past month. On Monday in an interview on CNN he was made to look like a fool when he said he had "a team of investigators" in Hawaii who had made some very interesting discoveries regarding (contd)
...Barack Obama's birth, and then when he was pressed by several different reporters about whether he really had sent a team of investigators to Hawaii, it became immediately clear that he had lied about the whole thing. He also said that his (non-existent) investigators discovered that Barack Obama's birth certificate was missing. Then on Wednesday the White House finally released Obama's long-form original birth certificate, which even further proved that Donald Trump was lying. So, how did Donald Trump react? In case you didn't see it, he held a press conferance saying that HE owned Barack Obama by making him release his birth certificate and that HE was successful in putting the whole birther thing to bed.
In the days that followed Trump continued to attract media attention by cursing live on national television, and he said he would make a presidential announcement in the following month. Yet everything changed after May 1st. First the night before he was ridiculed and made fun of at the white house correspondents dinner. The following night during his airing of The Celebrity Apprentice the news interrupted his program to announce that Obama had just killed Osama Bin Laden. It is known that Bin Ladens safehouse was being monitored since August 2010. Why didnt Obama take him out closer to the election in an October surprise to boost his popularity? We may know why now. A few days after that Trump surprised everyone by suddenly saying that he wouldnt ruin for president that year.
However the death of OBL had an even more devastating effect on the 9/11 Truth movement. Shortly after Obama announced that US troops would be leaving Afghanistan. Prior to this the topic of 9/11 was often a top thread on each political blog and message board on the web. The politics forum on Amazon, for example, had an epic thread that was over 10,000 comments, several times more than the 2nd biggest thread. But today, only 9/11-specific sites continue to talk about it. Go to the politics forum of a bodybuilding site, or a marijuana site, and there hasnt been a new or bumped thread about 9/11 in years. The general population isnt talking about it anymore. When did 9/11 truth dry up? Around the 10th anniversary. And I remember this episode just like it was yesterday. On every 9/11 video on Youtube 9 out of every 10 comments was conspiracy related, regardless if the video about 9/11 was conspiracy related at all. And most of the related videos for even a simple tribute to 9/11 had some conspiracy videos next to it. This was in early 2011. So any person who wanted to learn facts about 9/11 would have a hard time not finding something twoofer related and be sucked into believing it. The trend after May 2011 started to reverse and now 9/11 conspiracy videos are only found in a certain corner of the internet.
