One audience member at the rally, Pennsylvania firefighter Corey Comperatore, was killed in the shooting, and two other men are in critical condition, officials said. A spokesperson for Allegheny General Hospital said the injured victims were stable, although still in critical condition, on Sunday night."

@@johndavidwolf4239 - Right again, going by the data of public pollling. For example, during the 2016 campaign season, both Trump and Clinton were the most unpopular candidates since data began to be kept. Besides that, there were numerous other polls that showed his unpopularity. It would be shocking to find any other results. The American supermajority is not only to the left of the Republican Party but also to the left of most DNC elites. See my articles where I cite and link to all the data: "American Leftist Supermajority" "Fox News: Americans are the ‘Left-Wing’ Enemy Threatening America" "Polarization Between the Majority and Minority" "Polarizing Effect of Perceived Polarization" "The Court of Public Opinion: Part 1" "Wirthlin Effect & Symbolic Conservatism" "Political Elites Disconnected From General Public"

And those who can, aren’t making buying decisions based on TV ads. “Ask your doctor” is a ridiculous statement with such little basis in reality there’s no way it justifies their billion dollar ad budget.

Has someone who was mercilessly bullied in a Christian school, my entire life, and was certainly a loner I would never think of hurting anyone that I went to school with even though they were horrendous to me every day. It wasn't until I was 39 that I had the courage to get a battery of test to find out why I was so hated as it turned out. I was diagnosed with nonverbal learning disorder the opposite of what Thomas had he was so smart so I can't figure out why he was bullied because, even the kids that weren't athletic looking that were really smart. We're really revered and respected, so I'm not sure what went wrong with this kid hard to believe that both of his parents were licensed counselors and they couldn't see a warning sign very strange.

@kentfrederick8929 Ай бұрын

@kathrynbriley4299 I was bullied in public schools because I was smart, overweight, lousy in P.E., an only child, and far more interested in politics and business than kid stuff. I was mocked in high school, because I asked classmates what they thought about the passing of Chairman Mao and how things in Communist China could change. Throw in the fact that I was a rabid Republican who preferred Reagan to Ford. And, while boys wore flannel shirts, jeans, and sneakers, I wore Oxford shirts, the 1970s version of dockers, and loafers.

If you want to present honest and thorough analysis you should note that PA is one of 9 states that require a person to be registered to a party in order to vote in that party's primary. In this, it is reasonable to conclude he was registered R to vote against Trump or others in a primary.

"It makes me wonder why he would carry out an assassination attempt on the conservative candidate." Smith recalled a mock debate in which their history professor posed government policy questions and asked students to stand on one side of the classroom or the other to signal their support or opposition for a given proposal. "The majority of the class were on the liberal side, but Tom, no matter what, always stood his ground on the conservative side," Smith said. "That's still the picture I have of him.

In the same article you cite, it mentions his parents are Democrats and that he donated money to a progressive group when he was 17. Maybe he just liked to debate?
