      The shooter was supposedly a fan of history, a history buff. Let’s assume the meme about men thinking about the Roman empire was true. The guy might’ve been a fan of democracy, looked at the fate of the Roman republic, saw the writing on the wall, and decided that he wanted to prevent that, and also make history in some way too.

      As weird as it sounds, I believe keeping trump alive is the best bet to win for the Democrats.

        Agreed. Right now trump is a flailing baby. If he was dead they could use him as a symbol and say anything they want.

      Yea, he’s definitely a nominal 'pub, but can’t be conservative since he changes his political will constantly.

      Twermp is liberally fascist.

      Any strategy that will allow him to wield authoritarian power is worthy of pursuit for him.
