CANDACE OWENS (HOST): And this goes back way further in American history, and I do try to slow it down because I know that so many people are just waking up to this. And it's overwhelming, you know? It is like an avalanche. I always say that you kind of go through this period of cognitive dissonance where you just go, how could I have believed that things were happening and it was just this exceptional evil thing that took place and never considered that this could be being led by our government.
Now let me ask you this question: why does the government do these sorts of things? So I learned in that CHAOS book about the Charles Manson murders. I very much believe that the reason for that was they wanted to end the hippie generation because they were very anti-war and our government wanted to go to war. And so by conducting this hippie commune, conducted these terrible murders in Beverly Hills, suddenly people were buying locks and people were scared again. It wasn't like the love dream and the hippie love generation suddenly came to an abrupt end. What is their issue with Trump? Explain why they would — if we are alleging, and I actually very much believe our state was involved in this. I think you have to be a conspiracy theorist to believe that it was a — just a remarkable intelligence failure. I think that the crazy people are the ones that actually believe that this just happened by accident. Why would they try to assassinate Donald Trump?
