I don't mean this in a conspiratorial way, but I would not be surprised if this kid was a huge Trump fan. What better way to pump up the MAGA crowd than more bullshit to make it seem like some shadowy force was trying to stop him.
Right now the FBI has all of his friends and family in custody for interviews, the NSA is pulling all the comms info they have on him, his phone company is pulling what they have to provide...his entire life is going to get taken apart in very short order. What we actually get to see of that data probably is very little. I really hope what we need to see is disseminated quickly to not make the situation more murky.
There’s apparently a video of him saying he hates trump and republicans. It’s getting messy.
That was by a lookalike from 4chan I thought, the blue shirt video?
What's surprising is how unsurprised I am by that shit. I didn't read it and go, "No way, no one would do that!" Nope. As soon as I stumbled on it, I thought, "Well of course the chuds on 4chan did that."
