Well it’s just another day that ends in Y. The attempted assassin in Pennsylvania may have had vague political beliefs and some clear signs of mental illness, but this time around we know exactly the motivations surrounding the guy who wanted to tape himself shooting the former president on the golf course with a GoPro — he even wrote a whole book about it.

Essentially his motivations were the same as anyone who was particularly influenced by MSNBC, the Vindmans, James Comey, Michael Hayden, James Clapper, the Crossfire Hurricane menagerie of misfit toys, you pick ‘em: this guy is a Russian stooge who’s an existential threat to democracy and must be stopped by any means necessary. Emphasis on any.
