He was a 20 year old Republican that recognized that tRump was the biggest threat to the world since Hitler.

In second grade terms, he was SO MUCH SMARTER THAN THE TRUMP HUMPERS THAT WERE 2 TO 4 TIMES HIS AGE.

Sometimes youth has its advantages!

Looking to go out in a blaze of glory he took the shots at Trump maybe not necessarily having a specific problem with Trump. If he wanted to be remembered, that would be the way. He's accomplished that anyway, I guess.
