        I think the vast majority of his current supporters are self-hating and want to make others feel as badly about life as they do - without realizing it, of course.

        I could see someone coming to resent him while still holding the Republican “deplorables” identity. He is functionally above the law. Still ripping people off. Still pretending to be something he’s not and will never be. And they still have crappy little lives.

        But who knows? I’m just a rando.
        We’ll never know the intent or reasons of the first shooter. It’ll be interesting once the second guy’s story comes out.

    This isn’t accurate. What they are saying is, “why isn’t anyone shooting Kamala Harris.”

    No no no not like that. You’re supposed to let the tyrant win and then let them do all the tyrannical shit they said they’d do, then you buy your cosplay outfit defensive gear and get lit the fuck up by the military as is intended.

    You’re supposed to fight the tyrant’s troops, ergo other poors, not the important people!

    Republicans don’t believe that they need guns to defend against tyranny. They think they need guns because they are mine, they are scared, fantasy fulfillment of defending property or killing people in public. The oligarchical overlords in the republican party believe in guns because the peasants will kill the undesirables that they pitched to fight each other. The guns were never meant to be turned on the upper class that control the world

    Ha-ha, but this makes it seem like we don’t understand that the republicans think their opposition are the tyrants and they’re the patriots that’ll defend it.

    It really is as simple as “nobody thinks they’re the bad guy.”

    I’m not saying they’re right I’m just saying, this is the answer as to “why” if you were wondering
