50,000 of these types of voters will ultimately decide the election in Nov.

The average American swing voter

A new political calculus will be at play this election - the 'if people keep trying to shoot him, then he must be doing something right!' gambit.

This guy's ideology was... confused at best.

Dude was a neocon warmonger and he's in favor of the lady who, despite all her other bullshit, is anti-regime change?

On second thought, maybe he identified with her because her incoherence is relatable.

JD Vance was following him on twitter lmaooooo

Edit: probably fake :(

[-] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 58 points 3 months ago

JD Vance saw what happened to Trump's last VP and decided to do a preemptive strike.

Lmfao. Imagine throwing your life away, like almost certainly going to ADX Florence, for Vivek it Rhymes with Cake Ramaswamy. Trump assassins being the goober of christmas past is the funniest timeline.

Social media profiles show suspect's pro-Ukraine and conspiratorial postspublished at 01:01 British Summer Time 01:01 BST

By Mike Wendling

We’ve been looking at social media profiles which match the name of the alleged suspect Ryan Wesley Routh and have profile pictures that resemble a man allegedly pictured at the scene.

Routh was deeply involved in efforts to get foreign fighters into Ukraine to battle against the Russian Army.

One Facebook post from July read in part: “Soldiers, please do not call me. We are still trying to get Ukraine to accept Afghan soldiers and hope to have some answers in the coming months… please have patience.”

We’ve uncovered news reports and videos showing he travelled to Ukraine in the past. Donald Trump’s lukewarm support for Ukraine’s war effort has been an issue on the campaign trail, and we’ll expect to hear more about the suspect’s possible ties to Ukraine.

There are also pro-Palestinian, pro-Taiwan and anti-China messages on his profile, including allegations about Chinese “biological warfare” and references to the Covid-19 virus as an “attack”.

[-] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 15 points 3 months ago

Pro-Palestenian in there is a surprise but the rest does look like standard neocon

[-] anarcho_blinkenist@hexbear.net 17 points 3 months ago

idk what his posts were that they're talking about, but in current imperialist western media parlance, "pro-Palestine" is having any position other than "gaza is hamas and not giving full-throated support to Israel's right to Ustaše-level sadism in their righteous cleansing of the land is anti-semitic"

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 8 points 3 months ago

I figure he was just an anti-Semite who hated Jewish people and Israel.

I met a rabid anti-Semite that was anti-Israel. Stopped talking to him when that came out.

Wonder how well a Republican would do in the primary in 2028 on a "Trump should be [redacted]" platform

[-] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 28 points 3 months ago

I would probably consider it for a non-zero moment in time as pretty funny

I've seen libs be very confused by this guy being a pro-Ukraine and pro-Taiwan NATO chud, because in their demented manufactured worldview only a lib can support all those things.
