He was riding next to the driver in the front seat and had his feet up on the dash.

My guess is that the driver was drunk.

Switching drivers while driving. Stupid, high risk activity his 18 or 19 yo brain didn't have the maturity to think through.

He's and outrage pimp and his base audience is growing smaller. Self Identifying Republicans/Trumpies are 25% of voters. They're ignorant, uneducated, obnoxious and loud, but they are not winning by volume. His constituents HATE him, even the good ol boy GOP folks who propped him up.

Wheels McNazi is trotted out to fool those wishing to be fooled into thinking he's at the forefront of some Radical, reactionary revolution back to an imaginary past where racism is ignored again.

but that doesn't mean that they won't be able to figure out some way to make his life miserable and to motivate us to ensure that they don't get back in power anytime soon.
