- Donald Trump contributed $6,000 to Kamala Harris when she ran for California attorney general.
- Trump donated $5,000 to her 2011 campaign and $1,000 in 2013 as a private citizen.
- Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race on Sunday and endorsed Kamala to replace him.
This is the best response when conspiracy nuts try to talk about the Trump shooter donating to a Dem PAC to prove he wasn’t one of their own.
Plus he donated in response to whether or not Dems should pardon Trump.
I think the better response, even if a democrat voter DOES do something like this in the future is “Yeah, ok, but it’s your policies that allowed him to get a gun so easily without any mental wellbeing checks, or any gun control. Our policies would have stopped him. Your policies gave him free reign.”
That’s not an effective argument.
It wasn’t his gun, it was his father’s, and he took it without the knowledge or permission of the gun’s legal owner.
Stricter storage requirements could have potentially have prevented this. Legally Pennsylvania doesn’t have any particular gun storage requirements, had his dad kept tighter control of his gun, perhaps to comply with a law mandating it be locked up and prevent his son from having access to it without his permission, it wouldn’t have happened.
Isn’t that completely unproven, and likely a different person with the same name?
I think it has been verified by address, but my source for that is a Legal Eagle video on YouTube, so take that with about a quarter pound of salt.
