He’s so manifestly stereotypically MAGA that the only MAGA response is to claim that he’s an obvious deep state plant. ---

Cripes, you couldn’t write a schlocky movie script with more pathos than this one. A Latino no-hoper whose [only stated assets in 2012 were an $1,150 federal tax refund and a 2001 Chevy Tahoe](https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-packages-profile/suspect-in-bombs-case-is-florida-republican-with-criminal-history-idUSKCN1N02D9) goes all in with his support for the one “president” who doesn’t give one shit about him or his challenges, failing spectacularly (thank goodness) in his quest to blow up most of his hero’s named enemies, but nonetheless ends by spending the rest of his pathetic, miserable life in prison. But hey, at least it’s 3 hots and a cot. More than he would have had if he’d remained at large. #MAGA!! ---

[Trump is upset](https://twitter.com/dandrezner/status/1055838702809825280) that “this ‘bomb’ stuff happens and the momentum greatly slows - news not talking politics. Very unfortunate, what is going on.” Good to know our President has the right priorities, in the face of an episode like this one. ---
