Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspectin Saturday’s shooting, was registered as a Republican voter, according to Pennsylvania records.
Already the republicans are dismissing his voter registration as meaningless. Here comes the “mental illness” angle.
Edit: apparently it’s not uncommon to register with the party you oppose in PA. This is going to be a fun ride.
Unfortunately I think what we’re going to learn is that he’s one of those people that register Republican to vote in their primaries to choose the weakest candidate giving Democrats a better chance.
Either way I unfortunately think this is going to give Trump yet another boost… God knows that’s what we needed…
I read a snippit that in PA, it’s not uncommon to register for the other party. More than likely, he really was a dem/non repub.
He’s pro-gun and we can point out the dangers of that alone.
That’s possible. Because we damn sure aren’t going to learn that people are more complicated than a simple black & white label.
If this comes across as argumentative, I don’t mean it that way. It’s just pure cynicism.
