Brief intro to article ... actual article has too many pics and etc for me to post here.

INTRO:
It sounds like the stuff of a paranoid conspiracy theory. That a man operating from a state-of-the art studio in an undisclosed location in South Austin is exercising a kind of mind control over the Republican candidate for president of the United States.
That this gravel-throated prophet of doom who has been preaching against the New World Order at the very top of his barrel-chested lungs non-stop for more than two decades to what has grown into a vast subterranean national audience, might be playing a leading role in making this the weirdest presidential race ever.
But, as the 2016 campaign draws to a close, it’s becoming plain that Austin’s own Alex Jones — a right-wing broadcast personality and conspiracy theorist extraordinaire who until recently flew under the mainstream radar — might as well be the voice in Donald Trump’s head.
Trump may have heeded little of what he was told by a succession of campaign advisers, but, if you want to know what Trump is going to do or say tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, just tune into what Alex Jones is saying on the radio and online today.

Uhhh...

From the article:
“I don’t like Trump because he patted me on the head,” Jones said recently. “I like Trump because the whole New World Order is against him.”

Jones is spot on. That is the way I see it also. ;)
