This is my theory-
When Alex Jones was brought up in Q's posts, it was around the same time that McMaster's father was killed. It was actually the same day that Q posted 'be careful who you follow', and 2 posts later, he posted about the murder of McMaster's father. If I remember correctly, it was Jones who outed McMaster, calling him a deep state plant, around this same time (within a month of McMaster being fired). But I think McMaster was a double agent, working for the deep state, but he was truly on Trump's side (so he was working for Trump as a spy- to spy on the deep state). I think Jones is in on the plan with Trump, and with the Q deal. I think Q attacked Jones to protect Jones, so the deep state would think that Jones wasn't part of this thing. Things got real when McMaster's father was murdered so they felt the need to distance Jones from Q and this movement. The deep state murdered McMaster's father due to they found out he was playing them, so they killed his dad as a warning/punishment. etc. Jones attacked McMaster, and Trump fired him, due to Trump and team found out that the deep state knew about McMaster. So Jones attacked McMaster to throw off the deep state, but it was too late, they already knew the truth. And they proceeded to murder his father in retaliation.
I believe that Jones and Trump work together, and this would include Q. Alex Jones is an expert on the NWO, the deep state, all of it. It makes sense that Trump and his team would have gotten with Jones at some point, when this plan all started. And Jones has such a large following, Trump would be a fool not to utilize this. Hence, Trump went onto the Alex Jones show even.
And more proof in my mind that Jones is working with Trump- Roger Stone is part of infowars. Roger Stone is very close to Trump. Also, Alex Jones is right under Trump when it comes to media attacks, and deep state attacks. If Jones was just some kooky 'conspiracy theorist', then why would the left, the media, and the deep state care so much to attack him as they do? They would just chalk him up as a 'kook' and they would leave him alone. The attacks on Jones alone, show that he must be working extremely close with Trump, otherwise, he wouldn't be such a large target.
