    Maybe he registered Republican to vote in their primaries?

    Maybe he is a died in the wool Republican or alt right guy Idk. The information saying he donated to a Democratic cause is conflicting. The situation seems a bit uncertain at this point.

    I didn’t say everyone, I said it was filled with people like that. They were violent, there were several deaths, and yes those involved that were participating in the violence deserve to be condemned.

    He is teflon don. He has plot armor. One of the million different scandals would have taken most politicians down, but nothing seems to keep him down. If biden or any other politician had said "Grab 'em by the p***y" their political career probably would have been over. He encouraged a coup and he will likely be the next president of the US.

    i have seen multiple posts here calling for retribution and revenge. one poster even called for assassinating obama.

    right wingers seem excited about using this as an opportunity to go after their "enemies".

    republican elected leaders are publicly saying biden did it.

    Bro literally says he listens to the commander in chief, called the President of Ukraine Putin and his VP is Trump. His brain is mush. And ya still voting for him.
    Hyperbole much?

    I was waiting for someone to say this.

    I am sure that is where this is headed and will be parroted by the more extreme supporters of Trump and likely even referred to by Trump.

    It is a convenient excuse to justify firing career folks in Washington and replacing them with hand picked leaches.

    Let’s wait and see what comes out. It is very possible it was incompetence or another reason it happened.

    Same goes for idiotic claims by some on the left claiming it is an inside job by Trump to improve his political standing.

    he registered as a republican on 9/8/21…Dr Oz didn’t even announce he would be running for Senate until 11/30/21

    Two different situation but to downplay the amount of violence that actually occurred during jan 6 is just typical right winger bs.

    We had rioters mobbing police officers, countless of folks Injured, not even accounting property damage.

    Those rioters are just as fking deranged and depraved as this failed assassin.

    one of his classmates said he was a loner and bullied relentlessly…we were knee deep in Covid around the time of that ActBlue donation, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he eventually became some terminally online person during the lockdowns and fell down some rabbit holes and changed significantly as a person in a short amount of time…terminally online while harboring anger and resentment due to constant bullying is a recipe for disaster

    that is just my guess at this point in time as we wait for more information

    True (although known months before it'd be a highly contested seat), but why the donation to actblue? Doesn't make any sense

    I’ve said the same thing, liberals are the biggest bullies in every environment and they don’t know how to pull back and say “it’s enough”. They are the largest cause of school shootings truth be told because they are bullying students to the point “were they mentally snap” and then when **** hits the fan they are outside putting flowers in front of the school talking about “a gun violence epidemic”

    8 straight years of attacks againist trump and all it takes is a young impressionable kid to do something like this

    Yea it’s prudent to just wait and find out whats really going on.

    Maybe his motives are alt right

    Maybe his motives are left wing

    Maybe his motives are apolitical

    Could just be a guy with mental things going on.

    doesn’t take much for someone to change their views in a short amount of time, especially if they’re young and impressionable during today’s political climate and the absurd amount of stuff u can find online

    he was only 17 when that donation was made
