I can’t be the only one who didn’t give much weight to the “registered Republican” thing, right? I’ve considered registering as Republican just to do damage control in their primaries, and I know people who’ve done just that.
That being said, if this guy really does turn out to be a Republican I fully expect conservatives to try and gaslight everyone into thinking he was actually Antifa or something.
This doesn’t look like the same person as Crooks. I saw a video of someone that looks similar to the dude in this picture make a troll video after the fact saying HE was the shooter and he’s “still out there”. It very much seems like either this same person made an IG account immediately after to mess with people or someone else saw that video and chose to make this account to mess with people. Either way, I don’t think this is the same person as the shooter.
He did attempt to kill a fascist so he literally is an anti-fascist.
We don’t know his reasoning so until that becomes clear questions remain.
He might have been brother of a child rape victim, he might have loved Stormy Daniels until she was soiled by Trump, he might just be a old school Republican tired of the crazy in charge of his party. All seem reasonable things to hate Trump for but none are reason to kill him.
I’d rather Trump face jail time than die from an assassin. Him bitching to his cellie because he isn’t allowed to have his phone and Truth Social access is a far better fate for him.
Voting is anonymous. He would have to tell someone how he voted for anyone to know. Unless you mean the primaries, in which case, he’d have to register for the party primary he wanted to vote in ahead of time. Having grown up in PA, I can tell you that it’s common practice to change parties depending on which party has the more consequential primary. I’ve done this myself, multiple times. Maybe he’s right wing. Maybe he’s left wing. But Lemmy propagandists aren’t going to wait to find out.

So he read about Doe 147 and got even more disgusted than I did? Which, yeah. I don’t blame him if that was his motive.
That was some of the sickest shit I’ve ever read about someone with so much power and influence.
Re: recently unsealed Epstein documents uncover who Doe 147 is (trump) and recounts some of the experiences told by the abused girls.
I thought I could do that, because I live in a Red county, but all the Republicans in the primary were crazy. So, I didn’t.

Killing fascists doesn’t inherently make you antifascist. Fascists kill each other all the time!

He was 20 years old. He might have registered republican just to try ways of getting closer to trump
Republican, democrat, something else: I think it’s all plausible, we don’t know anything about the person or their motives yet.
He was probably trying to impress Jodie Foster.
Should’ve tried being a beautiful gay lady I guess.
