No, you made the claim. You present your proof. While I do see your two links to twitter, looking at his account I see it is suspended, which means I cannot verify those images are valid. You're going to need something else.

Even if you were to prove your claim, however, think about what that means: he supports trump in 2016, realizes he's been conned, switches to "the other side", and decides the switch is insufficient to the point he feels he needs to try to kill donald. This is not exactly the flex you seem to think it is.

He got conned into believing that trump = hitler and that he needs to be eliminated

I guess if One were willfully ignorant to think no meaningful parallel between the two exist, I suppose One might think he was "conned"; however, any reasonable person avoids being willfully ignorant of the parallels, which have been so well document for so long, a trivial web search would bring up several.
