Wasn't the failed assassin a registered Republican?

I think people are placing too much on this. Being registered is just sending a piece of mail with a checkbox checked, I think. You don't even have to donate or anything. I registered as a Republican to vote in their primaries a long time ago, and I have literally never voted for a Republican candidate for any office.

Any sane person would think like you, but if the shooter was a registered democrat, you know that the GOP would have used that as well to accuse Biden even more.

Yeah but he also donated to ActBlue so it sounds like he was a RINO Libtard. Probably a Marco Rubio supporter.
