Gotta love how no information regarding the shooter is out. Yet we have dumbasses like this illegal immingrant here, making absolutes about it being a leftist.

I accidentally watched a few Asmongold videos since the TrumpStein thing hit.

He seems to have a huuuuge youtube following.

Today he released a video regarding this incident, all somber and rational for like 10 minutes about how both sides have to cool down their rhetoric etc. And then out of nowhere be goes all in on how dangerous and crazy the people on the left are and how it's all their fault - for the next 7 mins.

Dude, did you forget what you yourself just said in this very same video?!

44000 comments at that point. 95% rightwing madness.

I knew something isn't right with this guy and his followers but that was kinda shocking.

I guess all those school shooters, Trump assassins, hammer wielders, proud boys, SUV hit and runners, protest shooters, insurrectionists, and nazis are easy to forget /s

I'm not surprised. The dude is a fucking tool, and can't comprehend ever being wrong.

Anyone trying to both sides fascism this late in the game is a fascist in denial; that was a pretty obvious tell.

He tweeted this minutes after it happened. The right always does this, because it works. They seize the narrative early. It's why a lot of people so easily forget the guys who tried to kill Trump were both on the right.

One of the few times the right was right!

No suspect, no motive, but there's a bunch of people who really want this to be political.

Or some other bullshit.
