    Seems like he voted and supported for Trump, got disappointed by Trump, listened to Trump’s and Republicans’ call for political violence to solve political problems.

    And here we are, leopards are now eating their faces.

        Routh, according to the New York Post and archives of his X account, said he voted for Trump in 2016.

        “I and the world hoped that president Trump would be different and better than the candidate, but we all were greatly disappointment and it seems you are getting worse and devolving; are you removed; I will be glad when you gone,” Routh posted.

      So he’s a jaded Trump voter. See this is what I had expected the first one to be, but it turns out he just hated politicians and picked the first idiot that showed up in his town. That idiot just so happened to be the orange one. This crazy person actually had buyers remorse and… uh… wanted a refund or something? Anyway he’s a loser and a failure now, just like Trump. So now at least they have that in common.

      listened to Trump’s and Republicans’ call for political violence to solve political problems.

      seems like he’s had a violent/criminal streak going back decades. not sure you can really tie this to trump.

        Giving habitually violent repeat offenders more reasons to be violent is always an issue.

        Manson didn’t go to jail for murdering anyone. Manson went to jail because he conspired and convinced other people to murder for him.

          the reason could simply have been a severe dislike of Trump, not necessarily that he was pushed to violence by Trump’s rhetoric.
