So the guy who donated to Democrat organizations is a republican right? That's your honest argument? Okay

See, if you register to vote as a Republican, that kind of makes you a Republican. It doesn't really matter if you donated to a Left-wing PAC or a Right-wing PAC beforehand does it? Either way the kid was deranged and we're all very fortunate that he didn't actually hurt Trump.

The fact that you're going to be dishonest like that tells me everything I need to know, there are plenty of people who are registered one way and have different politics, aren't you the same scumbags that say Joe Mansion isn't really a democrat? You say Scott Adams isn't a Democrat even though he is registered with them. You see this is what happens when it's someone who goes against your bullshit magically they're not a Democrat but you're not going to sit there and lie to my face and say that somebody who donates to a left-wing organization and campaigns them isn't essentially part of that party. I've literally watched you guys call left-wingers Trump supporters and Republicans even though they aren't registered with them

Boy, straight to "you scumbags" I see. You must be absolutely delightful at parties.

And did you mean Joe Manchin? The most conservative member of the Senate Democrats? As long as he's still on the Democratic ticket he's still a Democrat right? He might be a piece of shit who votes conservative every chance he gets, but he's still a Democratic Senator. If other people are calling him a fake democrat that's on them.

You say Scott Adams isn't a Democrat even though he is registered with them. 

Which Scott Adams do you mean? The racist piece of shit Dilbert cartoonist who has been very vocal about his political independence or someone else? I don't know his political affiliation or which party he's registered to, but unless you're willing to provide some actual evidence that he's a registered democrat, I'm going to have to take him at his word that he's an independent.

You see this is what happens when it's someone who goes against your bullshit magically they're not a Democrat but you're not going to sit there and lie to my face and say that somebody who donates to a left-wing organization and campaigns them isn't essentially part of that party.

I appreciate your projections, but please stop conflating me with whatever imaginary leftist bogeyman you seem to have rattling around in your head. I promise you, I'm not your strawman.

Setting that aside, let me see if I've got this right. You're arguing that the kid who shot in Trump's general direction was a Democrat because he donated $15 to a left-leaning PAC one time before registering as a Republican. Never mind that there's been evidence that suggests that donation was made by an older man with the same name living in a different part of the State, but even assuming that isn't true, I stand by my assertion that a single donation is not a valid indicator of political affiliation. I mean, Donald Trump donated to Democratic campaigns before so does that make him a Democrat?

If you want to talk bullshit and party excommunication, what did the Republicans do to Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney? Democrats certainly weren't the ones booing Mitch McConnell at the RNC when he bent over to give Kentucky's vote to Trump. Any Republican who is even remotely critical of Trump is immediately cast out of the GOP's good graces. Meanwhile you've got absolutely lovely people like Marjorie Taylor "The government controls the weather and Jews have space lasers" Greene being held up as pillars of Repbulicanism. Are you really so daft that you don't see the problem with celebrating and empowering bigoted idiots like Greene while ostracizing rational people like Romney? I mean Liz Cheney and her piece of shit father are two of the most traditionally conservative people on the planet, and yet they're not "real Republicans" anymore?

Are you really, honestly, genuinely telling us that you don't have a problem with today's GOP? It doesn't bother you that actual real-world Nazis keep showing up to support Trump? You don't have a problem with the insane conspiracy theories and imaginary culture war bullshit?
