Turns out -- surprise, surprise -- the suspect is a die-hard Trump supporter. He was arrested whilst driving a white van literally covered with more than a hundred elaborate pro-Trump stickers (details here and here). He had previously been photographed at Trump rallies wearing his red MAGA hat.
Of course, Trump refused to accept any responsibility for the fact that his vitriolic language, and that of his media supporters, was an obvious inspiration for the suspected bomber. Everyone the suspect targeted has also been targeted by Trump.
Instead, Trump continued to attack and blame the media and his critics (details here and here). Such a conclusion is absolutely nonsensical and illogical, but when did that ever stop him before.
The sooner Trump is curbed the better. Ideally that will be done by exiting him from the White House, but in the meantime, the midterms in ten days will be a good way to limit his damage significantly. Don't forget to vote.
