Fact Check-Claims Trump will be reinstated on August 13 stem from debunked conspiracy theories
By Reuters Fact Check
Users are falsely claiming that former U.S. President Donald Trump will be reinstated on Aug. 13, 2021. This claim stems from a conspiracy theory and is not based in fact.
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a pro-Trump businessman who spread misinformation that the 2020 election was a fraud, has claimed that Trump would be back by Aug. 13, 2021.
Maggie Haberman, Washington correspondent for The New York Times, said in a tweet here on June 1, 2021: “ Trump has been telling a number of people he’s in contact with that he expects he will get reinstated by August (no that isn’t how it works but simply sharing the information).”
