It should be noted that in the hours since identifying this suspect, Trump has led chants of “Lock him up” about Soros and a chant of “CNN sucks”.
Like this guy?
There was a time when we expected that at least the public behavior of the president didn’t encourage miscreants by example. You know, back in the halcyon days of 2016.
Stranger
So if they charge this guy, what does anyone suppose the charges will be?
I spent a few minutes reading a small alt-right message board and learned they are already dismissing Sayoc as one of their own because he was raised in New York. Apparently that invalidates his cred as a Trump supporter in full.
ETA: I’m not sure how sending 12 mail bombs doesn’t result in at least 12 criminal charges.
Yeah, this guy isn’t representative of Republicans at all…
The FBI said five counts of sending explosives through the mail and threatening a former President. This is probably because so far they’ve only been able to trace a small number of the bombs to him. If they can link him to more bombs, then they will probably increase the number of charges.
Holy Orwell, Batman.
That is eerily…familiar. :eek:
Let’s see . . .

Who are the crazy ones, again?
If those guys find out where Trump is from their tiny pinheads are going to explode in minuscule little puffs of smoke.
They probably don’t have evidence directly tying him to some of the bombs yet. Plenty of time to add charges later.
I know, right? The irony is so rich it makes me ill.
If you don’t want him, you shouldn’t have picked a candidate and now a president who is a conniving simple-minded demagogue and does everything possible to attract exactly this sort of imbecile. From the looks of that van, this guy totally worshiped Trump.
Seems like he’s learned a lot from Trump: fraud, larceny and stupidity. The three pillars of Trump.
That would be fun to watch.
And can we please, please, please officially nickname him The Magabomber?
Yeahbut he’s also got this fancy shirt!
And also, serious question - I use actual Photoshop because I’ve been using it for like 20 years in my Web career. I’m still a total noob at it, though. And Photoshop itself isn’t cheap. What do actual non-professional idiots use to make these fancy graphics and stuff? People in general don’t seem to understand resolution or layers or anything, and most memes would confirm that. But then there’s nutjobs who put together decent-looking, high-res graphics like the shit on this “vanifesto” and I’m like “wow…”
Anybody watching Fox? Rumor is that their coverage blurs out the images all over the MAGAbomber’s van.
GIMP is a free alternative to Photoshop.
But what he has mainly just looks like a lot of memes (or what passes as memes these days) slapped into one big image file, crop the edges into a proper rectangle and save. you could knock that out in Windows Paint if you wanted.
You can send various companies an image and have it put on a t-shirt. You can even set the entire thing up online and have it mailed to you without talking to a soul.
