Wacky theory claims Donald Trump is a time traveller who came back from the future to save the world from nuclear war
Perhaps there is more to the tanned tycoon than meets the eye, as conspiracy theorists claim The Donald is actually here to save us
A WILD conspiracy theory claims that Donald Trump is a time traveller who came to the present to save us from an impending nuclear war.
The brash Republican presidential nominee found himself in hot water this week for his "vile" comments about women, including some about his own daughter.
But perhaps there is more to the tanned tycoon than meets the eye, as conspiracy theorists claim that The Donald is actually a time traveller who is here to save us all from nuclear war.
The theory emerged on a notoriously shady forum called 4chan, where posters claimed that Donald Trump is linked to a time-travelling man named John Titor.
Titor allegedly travelled from the year 2036 to the year 2000 to warn us of an impending war with ISIS, reports.
First posting on the 4chan message boards 16 years ago, Titor claimed to be a soldier from 2036, who lived in a world ravaged by war and travelled back in time to change the future.
Titor eventually vanished from the internet, but now the legend has been reignited - as people claim that he is linked to loud-mouthed Donald Trump.
Legend has it that Donald Trump's uncle, John Trump, was asked by the government to investigate notes made by "mad scientist" Nikola Tesla.
In his capacity as an MIT professor, uncle Trump studied the secret works of Tesla, the gifted inventor who helped supply electricity to America in the late 1800s.
And conspiracy theorists claim that John Trump stumbled across something very special among Tesla's lab notes - the designs for a time travel machine.

In interviews Donald Trump regularly brought up his “uncle John”, who was a well-regarded nuclear scientist.
The Donald has also referred to his uncle's knowledge of nuclear war, predicting that an atomic conflict will break out eventually and bragging about his intricate knowledge of the deadly weapons.
And another man with an intricate knowledge of nuclear weapons is John Titor, the time traveller who first appeared on online forums with apocalyptic warnings.
Donald John Trump is well known for using his middle name as a fake first name, going by the aliases of John Miller and John Barron.
And some people claim that he has another such identity - as John Titor.
The story goes that Trump used Nikola Tesla's designs to travel to the future, before returning to warn us of what lies in wait.
When nobody listened, Trump took matters into his own hands and spent decades making money - in order to fund a bid for President and avert the terrifying future himself.
Last year, Trump hinted at his knowledge of the threats facing America, claiming: “I know more about ISIS than the generals do, believe me."
Perhaps this is because he's seen the future, or perhaps it's just because he's an egomaniac whose online fans think he is a time-travelling hero.
