But what does it mean to be "a Trump supporter"? This guy was "an ISIS supporter", but also an al Qaeda supporter and a Hezbollah supporter. Which indicates he really wasn't any of those, but rather someone who hated gay people and read a lot of anti-US and anti-gay screed on the Internet. It is highly unlikely that he ever did anything to "support" any of those organizations, and I would doubt that he ever spoke to anyone who was in any way connected to any of those organizations. And he was "an ISIS supporter" who attended gay nightclubs and used gay dating apps, like Grindr. Compare that to your "hypothetical" above and tell me if yours shows as many, or any, serious contradictions in the individual's professed "support".

Do you see that there is genuine reason to question what was really motivating this individual? It seems like the GOP has its own version of political correctness, that requires that you must see this as "ISIS terrorism," period.

I am assuming you can have a rational discussion about this. If not, let me know.

All that, but it was still weird to release the redacted transcript, especially as we knew what was redacted.
