---

In 2016, the original Pizzagate conspiracy theory—which claimed Democrats were running a child sex ring—spawned the birth of QAnon, a conspiracy movement that has grown to become a global phenomenon.

Now, as QAnon's hero, President Donald Trump, trails his rival by double digits in almost all national polls, Pizzagate 2.0 has emerged as an attempt to undermine the campaign of Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

Over the weekend, the baseless conspiracy theory, which claims Biden's son Hunter is a pedophile, spread with astonishing speed from the depths of fringe message board 4chan to being peddled by a national TV station.
