" Never before has a presidential campaign, from its paranoid messaging
to its white nationalist backers, been rooted so deeply in the fever
swamps of the right-wing psyche.
"Consider Trump's inner circle: Campaign CEO Stephen Bannon is on leave from Breitbart News,
the conservative site he helped turn into a one-stop destination for
breathlessly reported stories like "Muslim Prayer Rug Found on Arizona
Border" (on closer inspection, the "rug" was probably a track jacket). Trump's deputy campaign manager, David Bossie,
a peddler of many of the wildest Clinton conspiracy theories of the
1990s, once made a documentary alleging that Hillary Clinton had
murdered a critic's cat. Trump adviser Roger Stone,
a former Nixon campaign aide and political dirty trickster, wrote a
book claiming that Chelsea Clinton got four plastic surgeries to mask
the identity of her real father."
