    Yeah, the guy appears to have been a Republican up until near the end of Trump’s term, partially supported him into 2020 (while donating to ActBlue), and then ended up completely disillusioned.

    He also appears to be more than a little dangerous. In 2002, he was arrested and convicted of carrying a fully automatic machine gun. The guy should never have been able to get another gun.

      To make it weirder, read the interview and texts from the guy’s son. He was like "I don’t think he’s ever owned a gun, he’s not violent, he’s only ever had parking tickets " Meanwhile, his father clearly owned a gun, has and is violent, and was literally charged for barricading himself in an office with a machine gun before, which somehow his son (who is in like his mid 30s) apparently didn’t know about?

      And then the son texts the reporter later basically sounding like he’s trying to justify what his dad did, because politics is like what Southpark said… wowzy.
