My husband took the picture but won’t allow you guys to use it because you aren’t a reliable source of what’s going on in our country today. Sorry!

I can't say that I'll be terribly brokenhearted if this results in a rash of people reporting MAGA chuds for suspicious behavior.

Like, on the one hand I don't want people to be harassed for their political views, but on the other hand these specific people should maybe be gathered into a giant burlap sack and thrown into the ocean.

It would even better if right wing nutjobs started suspecting each other of being in the employ of George Soros and planning false flag operations - who do they report it to though?

I suppose they just kill each other to be on the safe side ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Trump hits "globalists" at WH event after call for unity in wake of bomb-scare suspects arrested. Several audience members shout out "George Soros" and others shout "lock 'em up." Trump chuckles, points and repeats "lock 'em up."

Just worth remarking on the fact that a guy who verbatim repeats talking points from the President of the United States of America is considered ipso facto mentally ill

on one hand the van is literally covered in trump stickers so eventually most of the right will acknowledge that this guy was inspired by trump. on the other, he is obviously kind of off the deep end, so they'll be able to compartmentalize him and his actions from trump and the republicans.

the undercurrent of all of this is a political argument - "trump's constant attacks on the media and calls for violence are dangerous, and some people are beginning to act on them. this has to stop." that's what the false flag theories are fighting against. in the end it'll be a wash, because no one on the right is going to believe that this guy has anything to do with what they stand for.

I was about to say that, judging by his twitter page, the guy appears to be an illiterate suggestible moron with mental health issues but I realized some people might think I was talking about the President of the United States.

I don't think it's unfair to say that even the most stable Trump supporter is probably like one blood sugar crash away from committing acts on par with those of Van Dude. These are not well people.

This fucking guy

Never mind; outsmarted myself in conjuring false flag operation designed to hurt @realDonaldTrump & #GOP. Actual alleged perp 56-year old #CesarSayoc is apparently stereotype most media assumed: a middle-aged, rabid, extreme right winger w a troubled past & long criminal record.

that's geraldo's problem, he is always outsmarting himself

Karl Malone, Friday, 26 October 2018 17:44 (six years ago) link

some things are not mutually exclusive here, "troubled past" = "extreme right winger"

omar little, Friday, 26 October 2018 17:44 (six years ago) link

Is “outsmarting” yourself a new way of saying you were deadass wrong about something? Asking for a friend.

So we've officially moved from false flag to lone nut. Glad I'm keeping on top of my talking points.

Suspect Cesar Sayoc worked as an exotic dancer and bouncer at several strip clubs, a cousin told NBC News.

The cousin called Sayoc a “loose cannon” and a “lost soul” and said he was estranged from his family.

“He’s been in the strip clubs since he was 22, that was his life,” the relative said. “He was a male dancer and he wanted to be a wrestler. He was taking steroids. He was all buffed up....He was built like a rock.”

Sayoc appears to have been living in his van and showering at the gym, according to NBC. He filed for bankruptcy in 2012 and a property he owned was foreclosed on in 2009.

Is he the first ever stripper/terrorist?
