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

    The average American swing voter

      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.

    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.

    edit: the BBC is expanding more on his ideology: https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c8dp10d4vq2t?post=asset%3A7a4a9659-358e-4e1d-b9c8-48a83ac61600#post

    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”.

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

        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"

          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.

        I could see it being one of three things:

        1. Some kind of milquetoast "I just want the killing to stop" post or ideologically murky contrarian news source like a Greyzone article

        2. Antisemitism from the ideological channels he's getting his COVID conspiracies from. Maybe it's Nick Fuentes shit.

        3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Si7dl6BU78E describes him perfectly. I see an old loser LARPing as a mercenary to sublimate how underwhelming his life is. He's showing up in Kyiv and Washington DC dressed in little costumes to play war, and somehow he's so incapable that even the Ukrainians won't throw him into the meat grinder. That was 2022. He gets home, the LARP is over, and there's nothing to fill that void until the next generic war spectacle erupts. It just happened to be Palestine and he tried doing the same Rambo routine before giving up without going there.

        Otherwise I don't know what news sources he'd be reading which positively feature Ukraine, Taiwan, and Palestine at the same time. There's almost certainly no way it's principled antizionism.

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

    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.

      Do not vote this November, Moon-and-Star.

      The great houses of Morrowind have already gerrymandered Red Mountain to reduce the influence of Dagoth Ur (the God) and the ash zombies who reside in Dagoth Ur (the place).
