I guarantee you that MAGA people will claim that he registered as a Republican as part of a big conspiracy that involves Biden personally sending him to kill Trump (which they won't realize is arguably acceptable unless he is impeached and removed from office according to SCOTUS).
Already came out that he donated to a liberal group once. They will latch onto that
Yeah, single donation of $15 on January 20th, 2021 for voter turnout PAC.
You don't think he was one of the Republicans that were outraged after January 6th?
Everything we know about him so far, screams "libertarian".
Dad and sister are registered libertarians. Mom is a registered dem. Take from that what you will. I’m sure we’ll learn more about him in the coming days and weeks.
You cant register to vote as a libertarian
It's a party in the USA? You can register to any party lol
Shit, you can put in your own "other" and handwrite in whatever BS you want in PA. I've read through voter rolls and people write in shit like "Birthday Party"
Sure, but even if that didn't come out, he'd be a secret librul.
Yeah, it doesn't matter if he donated or not. He's a deep state operative or RINO, or a secret librul, or you name it.
I read the FEC page. Same name, same zip code. Highly unlikely it’s someone else. Kid was 17 at the time and his job was “Not Employed”
NYTimes screenshot of the FEC document:

The donation is almost certainly him
They already latched on to spouting BS that about him attending BLM protests and going all the way cross the country to Seattle to come to CHOP.
