A Trump supporter who interrupted a Christmas Mass to rant about Pizzagate was beaten up over the weekend by anti-fascist activists during a Philadelphia political demonstration.
Howard Caplan a 48-year-old self-professed conspiracy theorist who gained notoriety by carrying Hillary 4 prison signs around the city went Sunday to protest a demonstration calling for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, reported the Philly Voice.
The slogan was popularized by Alex Jones InfoWars website, and Caplan promotes Pizzagate and other conspiracy theories discussed by the Trump-backing broadcaster.
Caplan said he was attacked by three men he identified as members of Antifa, after they asked him in a really nice way about the Trump 2020 he was carrying to troll the protesters.
Next thing I know, Im on the ground, Caplan told the Voice. Felt like they hit me in the head with a bottle. They were stomping me a bit while I was fighting them off. They scattered. I looked around, disoriented, thought they stole my backpack but they didnt.
