He's both. Watching the trial it is absolutely clear he is a raging narcissist who is so up his own ass he is no longer in touch with reality.
Alex Jones the conspiracy nutter

I think it is just a in character performance, a facade. For his fans.
That's the gist of it. People like Alex Jones aren't nutters at all. They're soulles capitalists catering to nutters. I'm convinced Jones doesn't believe a word he says, but simply doesn't give a feck.
He may be a nutter, but not in the sense that he believes all the nutter things he's peddling.
So are the text messages going to be revealed/made public?
I'd bloody love to read through them. Even leaving aside any other damning content, it would just be fascinating to see the tone of them, as it could reveal or explain the level of Jones' grift/character. It's still unclear to me if it's outright scam, if he partially believes some of it but exaggerates for business purposes, or if he's an actual loon who has even convinced himself.

Good.
I look forward to seeing multiples of that number in his other trials involving more families.

The one in CT should easily hit 9 figures.

I don’t feel sorry for anyone who donates and loses their money to that piece of shit.

Beyond the obvious… why have they made the background into a stained glass window? Is Alex Jones going to appear on a cross next?
Grifter as to grift. Trump is doing the same to sue CNN
Almost 47% of Americans (74M) voted for trump after 4 years of his shitshow presidency so yeah, Alex Jones knows who to target to grift the money he needs. The maga hats are proven to be that stupid so it’s no surprise that they get asked for more and more. And then when those idiots are broke they’ll blame Biden and the Libs.
It’s uncanny and scary how easily they get duped.

Who is stupid enough to donate money to Roger Stone and to Alex Jones? If nothing else, they are both multimillionaires.
(On second thought, people give money to the church, which is usually controlled by multimillionaires, so...)

Can the other two lawsuits end up as expensive? I certainly hope so.
People are thick.
Incredible how much money this guy earns for talking absolute codshit
There’s a Community gif for everything isn’t there!
The Texas judgement was for 2 families, while the Connecticut lawsuit is filed on behalf of 8 victims’ families and 1 first responder, so it could be much higher.
And, from what I’ve read, CT laws are more planting friendly then TX who’s had a semi official cap on punitive damages.
Good
Feck knows how he was turning over hundreds of millions with this shit.
A large amount of it was supplement sales, a lot of supplements apparently.
“supplements”..?
Yeah, the shit at the top…

Gotcha. I was just wondering if he was making stupid money off of using supplements as a laundry mat for “supplements”… cause his audience is on crack.
Wow, he's an actual snake oil salesman.
People are so dumb and weird. Just buying some supplements while reading up on Sandy Hook...
I read today on BBC his Infowars platform and associated websites were turning over $800K a day. That's a lot of stupid feckers.
So after all this he still has like 200 million left? Can he at least be publicly flogged? Or thrown into a tank of Piranhas?
Cannot wrap my head around Infowars making 200-million-plus per annum through merch and supps. Wonder if there's some book cooking going on from dark money sources.
If there's anything relevant to the Jan 6th committee nothing will be made public for a while, if ever, unless dropped during court or leaked out. My guess.
From what I've read it seems that the jury award is many times the Texas state cap on punitive damages and so I think the likelihood is that the headline number will be reduced enormously - maybe to less than 10m, maybe far less.
Here are the relevant Texas statutes:
Like, hopefully there's a way round this state cap but... well, the US justice system seems perfectly designed to let you down. I think the jury can demand whatever it wants, and this is what makes the headline, however I don't think the jury decision has the force of law. I expect we're all going to be sorely disappointed when push comes to shove.
I think the other cases are being brought in different states with different laws regarding caps, so perhaps there's far greater scope for punishment there.
edit: for some reason this post wouldn't save when I wrote it in full. Something to do with bracketed numbers followed by bracketed letters breaks the forum software. Dunno why.
Here are the relevant Texas statutes:
andCIVIL PRACTICE AND REMEDIES CODE said:
It seems to me that in the first instance the jury found Jones should pay 4.1m in compensatory damages, but that these were not economic. If they weren't economic then it seems that the maximum punitive/exemplary damages permissible under Texas law would be $750k per claimant, and $1.5m total. So Jones will eventually be on the hook for $5.6m. If it turns out that the compensatory damages were defined as economic then the maximum would be $8.2m in punitive damages and Jones would owe $12.3m.CIVIL PRACTICE AND REMEDIES CODE said:

Alex Jones is a scumbag, of course, but I would question if that is really something that needs to be communicated to the whole world. It has zero relevance to the case.
Anything the reinforces the fact that he's a scumbag could be seen as relevant.
This.
