Alex Jones, a conservative Texas radio and internet personality who specializes in conspiracy theories, is most famous recently for saying that Hillary Clinton and President Obama are literally demons, and for Obama's appropriately mocking reaction to the oddball accusation. Of course, Trump called Clinton "the devil" just a week ago, and in a new ad, the Clinton campaign notes other Trump conspiracy theories that appear to have been spoken first by Jones — like that Clinton is on drugs, or that Clinton and Obama are running the Islamic State. Trump doesn't speak much in the ad, but as Clinton says in her tweet of the video, "watch all the way to the end." Peter Weber
