Are you talking about a donation to ActBlue when he was 16 or 17?

- Doc
I wasn't going to post this - I don't think it matters that much, I was just making a reply to Kish - I understand that everything I am going to post might turn out to be false, especially in the world we live in today. Here is what I have heard:

He has never voted in a President election in his life (He just turn 18 two years ago) - His mom/dad are registered D and I - In 2021, at age 17, on Biden's inauguration day he made a donation on ActBlue ($15.00 confirmed by the federal election commission - earmarked for the progressive turnout project working to elect Biden) - So it seems in 2021 he was a Biden supporter. Later that year, upon turning 18, he registered as a Republican. Can't explain this?

As I said, I am not suggesting these are facts. I believe it's wise to wait for developments to develop.

He changed his mind? What’s to explain?

You are far less skeptical than I am. No worries.

Why are trying to make something out of this - I don't think it matters. We (you and I) are Americans - In our country there was an assassination attempted on a former President. That's the elephant in the room. Can you take a brief pause from your feelings about me and consider the elephant?

Maybe?

That's not what is being reported from many sources - They mention it at about the 3-minute mark of this report. CBS Pittsburg.

True, it's a maybe as the reporting includes it while other sources have said it is another person with the same first and last name in the area. One would think it would be easy to verify given it's a political donation.

The calls to replace Biden will stop now. No Democrat can beat Trump. They’d rather have Biden lose to him than waste one of their up and coming stars on a fool’s errand. Biden’s job now is to lose, absorb all the blame, then shuffle off to the nursing home and disappear.
THAT, is impact. There will be not one more discussion about this. Not a peep from not a goddamn soul. It is Biden for President and anyone that votes for Pantsy McShitpants Biden is erranding for the fool. This should swing a few of the senate races in battleground states too.

So, are we going to get more funding for mental health from the GOP like they say when a mass shooter smokes some people grocery shopping? On radical websites young men use a term called ‘acceleration’ - a sort of ethos dedicated to the destruction of civilization so that a man-operated one, a Conservative one, can take over.

They’re ‘accelerating’ to hard times so they can start the cycle over again. I think this kid was probably an incel heavily influenced by populism, doomerism, and cynicism. Sad.

Setting the motives of Crooks aside, it's wild to see the range of threads on the r/conspiracy subreddit. The range covers everything from false flag by the Trump campaign to intentionally lax security with shooter a patsy for the Obama cabal and everything in between. X seems about the same. Your suggestion is also represented, and variations on it including more or less alts like his being an anti-establishment doomer who would have shot at Biden if he had been the candidate who had a rally in the area instead, to disillusioned attempt to call it having at least made some mark on history.

Too early to say. I suppose we find out more about our own views and what we hope is true when we look at it right now.
