You didn't think 'common sense' was simply a coincidence did you?
Think email.
Think #1776.
But how did we know an article was going to be dropped later that night?

The audience has now been seated.
The lights have dimmed.
The sound of munching popcorn permeates the air.
The curtain slowly begins to open.
Buckle up buttercups, here we go.

Trump’s most despicable supporters tell us who they are

It is what a Post headline accurately described as a “deranged conspiracy cult,” one that has crawled out of the malodorous crevices of the Internet where decent people don’t go. That it would announce its presence in public is both horrifying and perfectly predictable, given how racist lies that Barack Obama was born in Africa helped launch Trump on his path to the White House. The movement, if you care to dignify it by calling it one, is Birtherism 2.0.
QAnon followers have a delusional fixation on pedophilia, an outgrowth of the #Pizzagate lie that went viral shortly before the 2016 election. That one, you might recall, ended up with a gunman opening fire in a D.C. pizza restaurant as he searched for children he thought were being trafficked from the establishment’s nonexistent basement by Hillary Clinton and her campaign chairman John Podesta. But those sick theories are only one book in QAnon’s Canon of Crazy, as my colleague Isaac Stanley-Becker reports:
But viewing their message boards, it’s clear that QAnon crosses a new frontier. In the black hole of conspiracy in which “Q” has plunged its followers, Trump only feigned collusion to create a pretense for the hiring of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, who is actually working as a “white hat,” or hero, to expose the Democrats. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and George Soros are planning a coup — and traffic children in their spare time. J.P. Morgan, the American financier, sunk the Titanic.
