Late this morning, FBI Co-Deputy Director Bongino mentioned the word "obsession."
Bingino stated that Robinson had an "obsession" with Kirk.
Over the last few days, I have been thinking of the obsession which Mark David Chapman had with John Lennon. Chapman had Lennon sign an album cover a day or two before he shot him. Chapman, of course, was deranged. He liked Lennon"s music, but disliked a line in "Imagine" which seems to applaud atheism.
I think Robinson's obsessive attachment to all things Kirk was the foundation for his deadly act. In his twisted mind, Robinson felt that, if he could not be Charlie Kirk, then Kirk could be be Kirk either.
