“East Idaho rep. says it’s ‘plausible’ Obama staged Charlottesville riots,” from the Idaho Statesman: “Idaho Falls Rep. Bryan Zollinger took to Facebook on Friday, re-posting a conspiracy theory suggesting that last weekend’s events in Charlottesville, Va., could have been an inside job orchestrated to smear [Trump].

Terry McAuliffe or Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer — or by some shadowy cabal involving them all. In a comment, Zollinger called the blog post ‘completely plausible.’”
