Its mixed.
Kid was a Republican from a rural area of the country (that is often Republican). Kid was also wearing pro-gun T-shirt and also wielding AR-15.
There’s also $15 to a progressive (aka: left) cause in this kid’s name. So its not all right-wing stuff. But the myth of “kind” rural people who are responsible with their AR-15 long-range rifles is clearly going to be demolished by this turn of events. (In case Uvalde Texas didn’t prove that yet…)
I think that blonde dude who they were spreading pics of that made that video about hating repubs /Trump and having the same name /not being the right guy probably made the donation.
Doesn’t matter, kid was a Republican that shot his homie. Gotta stop saying shit about the donation. Don’t let any doubt seep in, the bumblecans are leopards eating faces.
Real life doesn’t matter. Feelings and emotions do. We need to seriously think about messaging that works, and its not necessarily the truth.
If we go this route, the best chance we have is to discuss the kid’s T-Shirt. “Demolition Ranch” is a well known right-wing pro-gun Youtube Channel.
Push that. We need arguments that win, not arguments that are true. (And this one: Demolition Ranch and AR15s is one that is both true and one I feel like we could win).
Real life doesn’t matter. Feelings and emotions do. We need to seriously think about messaging that works, and its not necessarily the truth.
This is some blue MAGA shit.
Source? A lot of my sources suggest it was him, but maybe there’s new developments this week…
Because the donation shared his first and last name and journalism is dead, or else they’d have noted that 17 year olds can’t make political donations in Pennsylvania.
