Conservative or liberal (politics)

[LostLegend]

Yeah, the picture of him with his fist raised up in the air, and his ear bleeding, is pretty badass. He might have been handed the election, since this is the kind of event that motivates apathetic and undecided voters.

You couldn’t buy a photo op better than that. Looks like a Time magazine cover.

The shooter was looking to end his campaign, he’s probably had the opposite effect here.

All these guns and can't nobody shoot for shit

Registered Republican voter apparently.
So god knows at this point …

BBC also said he donated to a liberal organization on Biden's inauguration (2021). Best not to try speculate or characterize at this point, it's too early and muddy.

It's shocking how close this young man came to turning the US upside down for a year (or more).

I did wonder around a few mins after if this whole thing was staged to assist Trump. If an audience innocent member of public died tho I don’t think so. But maybe Trump wouldn’t care. He does seem the most twatty twat on the planet.

News. Innocent man thought shot, seen buying a beef burger 2 days after being shot dead. - Wowsers, trumps a genius.
He would then claim to be Jesus and brought him back from the dead. Yo!

I really feel for the innocent dead guys family

He voted Republican in 2022 and owned guns. It's fair to say that he is definitely Republican. Probably just wanted to kill a pedophile (which Trump is)

It would be 100% more effective to hire a black, Hispanic, or middle Eastern shooter. You could spin that story so many ways. Unfortunately, the state of mental health among young (~16-25) conservative white men in the US is down the drain. Too many of them are too far gone.

Trump says ‘God stopped unthinkable from happening’ after assassination attempt’​

two critically injured people, one person dead. (Plus the gun man). unthinkable to a big group of families two dealing with death of a loved one and two families plus the victims who survived so far.

Unthinkable prevented? . I ‘think’ trump forgot this little detail when he claimed God prevented his death.

 

[LostLegend]

Still pretending to believe in God is he?

 

[Jetflag]

Oh god he's gonna get elected again because of this isn't he

No he won’t, it at best will give him one key more.

unless something drastic happens with bidens health, the economy, or there is civil unrest ala George Floyd post hoc this.

biden will win.

 

[LostLegend]

It sounds like (and this is complete speculation on my part) like he fits the mold of a potential school shooter who's seen an opportunity to go out in an even bigger blaze of glory, given he was local to the area.
It's possible there was little political motivation at all.

Lots of information poring in atm, including him being an Antifa group member.

lets wait and c

As said above, he may not be either of those things. Another suicidal, mentally ill young man with access to a high powered rifle.

Yes, or another radicalised “revolutionary” who knew perfectly well what he was Harvey Lee Oswalding. I mean what sort of republican spends time rallying funds for (far) left/ democrat political candidates?

But lets wait and c, the fog should clear in a couple of weeks, things are way to chaotic now.

Edit:

And it’s probably not really going to matter in November anyway so

Part of why I think he might very well be a far-left soyjack.

I mean 130 meter, clear line of sight from an elevated position, semi automatic and 0 wind?

only a malnutritioned vegan could miss that glory shot

I think the most surprising thing is how he got there. I’ve seen clear footage of the guy lyeing down on something with a rifle pointing through the bushes. Seems ridiculous no one in security saw him if a camera clearly did.

That sounds like misinformation being spread in right wing sites

I wish US liberals had this kind of enthusiasm, lol. Everyone seems to be calling for Biden to step down. At least, all of that was going on before this shooting

I think him being a far left revolutionary requires too many assumptions and just doesn't make sense given his record. It's more likely that he was just a mentally ill, young conservative white guy who hates pedophiles (and people in general) who wanted to kill Trump as a legacy move

Then again: “Misinformation” anno 2024 more often then no synonym for “information I don’t like”

there’s actually a plan B in which Biden retains the keys but steps down willingly

You don’t get to proclaim misinformation and assumptions whilst simultaneously baselessly accusing Trump of pedophelia m8, that’s a bit rich, lol
