Hell notice how with the el paso guy they focused on the parts of his manifesto that spew right wing talking points and ignored the spewing of left wing talking points. So we can't be surprised with this.
I heard the El Paso shooter had his profile altered shortly after the shooting to say he was a right-winger & a Christian.
Even without a manifesto, not all mass shooters leave manifestos. And yet if you have a white guy with no manifesto who does a mass shooting and then it turns out...oh he's a right winger he voted for Trump etc...Trump still gets the blame. Just the mere fact of supporting him is enough. So it should be no different here really.
Even when you have a manifesto that specifically says his views predate Trump and Trump is not to blame...Trump is to blame.
And hell I am always reminded of the washington post article titled "Another hurricane is about to batter our coast. Trump is complicit."

Does it remind you of Obama's presidency where all of the right-wing idiotic morons blamed Obama for everything? Do you remember when "Thanks, Obama" was uttered un-ironically before it become a meme? I do.

I do remember. Keep in mind I've maintained one side isn't better than the other.
It's just like when democrats get mad when republicans go "But Obama" and yet they often pulled a "But Bush" when Obama was president.
It's almost like in the end it's just one big party that doesn't have our best interests in mind. It's just they go about f*cking with us in different ways.
