    "The gunman who fired shots at former President Donald Trump in an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Saturday night has been identified by the FBI as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks. He was killed by a Secret Service sniper, officials said.
    One audience member at the rally, Pennsylvania firefighter Corey Comperatore, was killed in the shooting, and two other men are in critical condition, officials said. A spokesperson for Allegheny General Hospital said the injured victims were stable, although still in critical condition, on Sunday night."

      @@johndavidwolf4239 - Right again, going by the data of public pollling. For example, during the 2016 campaign season, both Trump and Clinton were the most unpopular candidates since data began to be kept.
      Besides that, there were numerous other polls that showed his unpopularity. It would be shocking to find any other results. The American supermajority is not only to the left of the Republican Party but also to the left of most DNC elites.
      See my articles where I cite and link to all the data:
      "American Leftist Supermajority"
      "Fox News: Americans are the ‘Left-Wing’ Enemy Threatening America"

      Unfortunately those propagandists don’t need viewers to survive. They’re paid off by all those big pharma ads. Those commercials are a Dem money laundering scheme. What other product is so heavily advertised that the vast majority watching can’t buy? And those who can, aren’t making buying decisions based on TV ads. “Ask your doctor” is a ridiculous statement with such little basis in reality there’s no way it justifies their billion dollar ad budget. So ask yourself what are those ads actually for?

It wasn't until I was 39 that I had the courage to get a battery of test to find out why I was so hated as it turned out. I was diagnosed with nonverbal learning disorder the opposite of what Thomas had he was so smart so I can't figure out why he was bullied because, even the kids that weren't athletic looking that were really smart.

    In primary voting you can only vote in the party you are registered in. So if he had a friend, relative or whatever running as a Republican for a local office he probably registered as such. A Republican he was not
