Donald Trump: "Great Honor" To Be Endorsed By Sandy Hook Truther

Trump Rally Speaker Carl Gallups Attacked Newtown Victim's Parents As Fakes Who Participated In "Staged" Shooting

Donald Trump's campaign has been relying on the support of Carl Gallups, a Florida-based pastor and radio host, ahead of the state's March 15 Republican primary; the campaign invited Gallups to speak at a rally and touted his endorsement as a "great honor" from a "prominent" leader. Gallups is a fringe conspiracy host who believes the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, CT, was a "staged" "hoax" and that the father of one of the victims was an "actor employed by the Obama administration to take away your guns."

Gallups: Obama Is "An Anti-Christ." Gallups said that Obama "is an anti-Christ, he is a depiction of some of the characteristics of the anti-Christ who is to come," according to Raw Story. [Raw Story, 12/3/13; Media Matters, 5/20/11]

Gallups: Homosexuality "One Of The Most Dangerous Sexual Lifestyles On The Planet." In an interview with WND, Gallups attacked the U.S. public school system for not warning about the purported dangers of "embracing and accepting homosexuality."

Trump supports the idea that the Newtown massacre was faked. Shame on him.

Time to lower the bar again. What's next, going after the Charley Manson/Jeffrey Dahmer demographic?
