State voter records show that Crooks was a registered Republican, according to US media.

He is also reported to have donated $15 to liberal campaign group ActBlue in 2021.

Thank god he's not a leftist. They can threaten to put Blue MAGA people in prison for all I care. If he was an ML or Anarchist, comrades would be shot.

It literally doesn't matter, people will blame who they want to blame. We exist in a post facts reality

I wouldn’t be surprised tho if this gets spinned against the left anyway.

Oh it will, remember a lot of Trump's supporters think the Dems are Communists in the first place.

Well, yeah, but perhaps that implies they don't know who the actual communists are, so they will still target the "commie" demonrats

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago

a communist would have finished the job, but also have the sense to not do it in the first place

The article says he was wearing a Demolition Ranch t-shirt, which is pretty on the nose if you ask me. Demolition Ranch is a youtube gun-nut channel that practically worships trump. It sounds more like a disguise an hysterical lib would wear.
