Michael Moore says ‘evil genius’ Trump could be lying about Covid-19 in complex election scheme

The film maker claimed – without evidence – that Donald Trump is not above “weaponizing” Covid-19 to gain sympathy in a plot to replace himself with Mike Pence on the ballot ahead of 3 November.

“He’s an evil genius and I raise the possibility of him lying about having Covid-19,” Mr Moore wrote.

“He may use his Covid as a pretext to drop out of the race and move Pence to the top of the ticket. Pence would temporarily become President, and then Pence could pre-emptively pardon Trump for all of his crimes."

The claims were made in a whopping 1,163-word post on Facebook, known for hosting all the best conspiracy theories.
