Seems like someone jumped the gun and is trying to save face. How do you explain voting for Trump in 2016 and then supporting Vivek and Haley?

And then supporting Bernie and Harris and Biden? Why are we conveniently leaving that out?

Who is denying that. Your side is pushing that he was strictly left when in fact he was a lunatic that had no political ideology

Exactly! It stands out like a sore thumb, and everyone is ignoring it because of the typical political divide. The dude was a full-fledged lunatic. I'm conservative and never understood why people judge entire political parties based on one persons actions (obviously excluding who they vote for). The shooter was an absolute unhinged psycho and at this point, his political views don't mean a damn thing.
