Trump signs in his yard?
Granted he lived with his parents but he’s the only republican in the house.

His dad is a Libertarian. And...You know, some Republicans split vote their ballot. Perhaps some Dems do it, too.

Signs were taken down months ago. Who wants to bet that one of the parents is proTrump, one is anti-Trump, and there has been strife…

Probably the only Democrat who registered as a Republican. That happens, you know.
ETA: As has been said before, a lot of people in PA are registered "Republicans" so that they can vote in GOP primaries - presumably for the weakest candidate.
How many "Republicans" donated to left-wing causes?

I heard about someone who allegedly knew him say that he was a really bad shot and was embarrassed about it. Not sure if that's true at all.
But this could be as simple as him going after the most high profile target in the world to disprove those who made fun of him.
There doesn't have to be a political explanation.

I've seen a rumor that he was thrown off the rifle club because he was such a bad shot.

That's right.

No signs…
Fox found a neighbor that said no, Newsweek found a neighbor that said yes.

Fox found 2, including the local captain for the Trump team that distributes the signs and fundraises. The other is an unidentified neighbor that said they noticed it several months ago, but nothing now… :eyeroll:

One detects the faint whiff of hope in the air, hope against hope, that the attempted assassination of Trump can be blamed on Trump.

No, one is choking on the vast plume of hope (assumption, really) that the assassination attempt can be blamed on the outgroup’s rhetoric even though there is not yet any evidence he was caught up in that.

I think the truth is that a sad, lonely young man made a very bad decision.

Weird stuff. He clearly knew he would be killed - and that was at least part of his goal. He wanted to be remembered - and he achieved that as well.
