I imagine there is a mad, frenzied scramble in the Trump camp to "prove" the shooter was a "radical leftist."

This is the worst part, right here. There's no concern for "justice" There's just an obsession with the MAGAts proving "he wasn't one of us." And, using it as a springboard to continue Trump's fatwa against "radical leftists."

Mad, frenzied scrambling is the modus operandi for mad, frenzied scramblers.

But that is a money making bet that is a sure win.
That WILL happen. Expect it to be fast and consistent. (Epstein be damned)

No more concern about the victims or solving the root issues. Just blame the other side. It will get worse with AI manipulation.

The guy had an issue with Charlie Kirk.

The guy doesn't speak for me. I am assuming he doesn't speak for anyone here. The world is filled with rogues who have mental health issues. Why, we even have one of those in the White House.

But you bring up a valid point, so thank you.

And Don Lemon reported it. He's basically a Proud Boy, he apparently was done standing back and standing by.

If he had belonged to some left wing organization the FBI would be raiding their homes right now.

this is because the Trump camp is pro-fascist, pure and simple. It's all black and white to them, never mind that we fought and won a World War against fascism.
