QAnon's March 4 Failure Prompts Wave of Trump Inauguration Jokes, Memes On 3/5/21 at 4:18 AM EST According to believers of QAnon conspiracy theories, former President Donald Trump was due to be reinstated yesterday, March 4. Nothing happened and Twitter has erupted with jokes. QAnon conspiracists believed Trump would return to the White House on Thursday because it was the original date of the presidential inaugurations, before it switched to January 20 when the 20th amendment was passed in 1933. Federal agencies, like the U.S. Capitol Police and the Department of Homeland Security, prepared for possible violence, following the Capitol riots in early January that involved QAnon supporters, among others, storming the seat of government.
