It still amazes me how people just lap up these really screwy conspiracy theories. There was a whole half hour of pictures that didn’t show any "ear peice’, but some moron media personality ginned up a conspiracy about Hillary and it is getting national exposure. In the mean time most of the public doesn’t really seem interested in any discussion of the countries real problems. The country will richly deserve what they get if Trump becomes president. I think he has the capacity to really screw things up.
There seems to be a market for the absurd. The wilder the accusation the more fame and notoriety for the author. It becomes a contest as to who can better the last.
I don’t even understand you commenters anymore. There was already a leaked e-mail from Huma asking Hillary if she needed her earpiece. This was from 2009. Hillary has been hiding her use of earpieces for a long time. Either she’s deaf, or she uses a voice in her ear to tell her what to say.
Even if she did use an earpiece, it would show she was LISTENING to someone. Trump would never use an earpiece because it would show he occasionally listens to someone besides himself. (But what an absurd thing to consider a criticism at all: Even if she had one, Clinton presumably used the earpiece to make sure that she got her facts right and that she heard the moderator. Walter Cronkite also used an earpiece; it is visible in many of his TV recordings. Did that make him less believeable? )
NO. No serious person connected to the real world believes there was any kind of ear piece nor is there the slightest bit of credible evidence to suggest much less support that..If Steve Kelley can’t tell the difference between facts, evidence and the Alex Jones / Infowars / Breitbart / Drudge tinfoil hat CONspriacy reality denial, no wonder he can’t keep a job at any serious new outlet.

“Many believe….”Don’t you mean, "All those easily duped, poorly educated, hateful weak minded parrots who “believe” what they are told to…"

Many believe what they see and hear on Fox and Limbaugh. They believe the lies.

Didn’t look in Trump’s ear, did you? It only matters if you’re a Democrat.

There are political cartoons and then there are attempts that are an absolute waste of time.

Aw, c’mon! YOU try to make a decent cartoon from the damn fax that comes every day and tells him what the talking point has to be.

Just like"many" believe that extraterrestrials crash landed in Roswell New Mexico.

I prefer to think of it as a reason to buy more stock in companies that make tinfoil.
