Even if he were a "woke libtard" it's anecdotal, yet many on the right will say it's indicative of the state of the party as a whole. If it came out that he were a far right extremist, they will say it doesn't matter. We all know he's just one crazy person with a gun not representative of anything other than the fact that any crazy person with a gun can kill anybody they want to if they have a good enough plan.
Who do you mean by “we all”? Surely not most of our society at the moment
Sane, logical people, which certainly includes many who are knowingly using this as fodder for their political agenda, despite what they actually believe.

In reality he was the most white bread, center right, generic ass Republican to exist. To them, anyone right of center is a far right white supremacist who just wants to say the n-word and kill gays or whatever. You have to remember they are mind readers, so debating with them is pointless. They already know what you REALLY think, despite them having basically no awareness of politics beyond red team/blue team, Democrats good, Republicans bad. That's as far as they are capable of thinking.
Whoa whoa whoa whoa! Settle down!

straight white male from northern Utah enrolled in an electrician apprentice program is definitely leaning more towards the right.

Purely speculation, but the "groyper" theory is that Kirk wasn't extreme enough in his views for Johnny Utah.

Whole thing is fucking weird.

Not really sure this counts as "dressing as Trump". I don't know what this is really. Mother was a social worker. No wonder he's messed up!

Not sure the reporting on the rifle is accurate, but if it's true, someone needs to go to jail (or more likely exhumed).

They took a Mauser 98, (presumably Kar-98k) re-chambered it in 30-06 and put a shitty polymer stock on it. The greatest generation have a lot to answer for but their post-war sporterization of military surplus weapons is up there among their grievous sins.

*I suppose by Mauser they could just mean Mauser type bolt action, in which case it could be any number of domestic or imported hunting rifles. Other reporting has this weapon as uncommon which would support the above sporterization possibility
