Just make sure your suspicion is grounded in reality and not just a fiction you're inventing to tell yourself what you wish to be true...
Like the idea that dems made up the whole thing because the polls weren't looking great. Well, here's the thing, the Democrat's chances of taking the house have remained fairly high and fairly steady.
Why the need for an implausible story grounded in lies? Why is that, in your head, somehow more believable than the idea that a right wing nutjob, with his van decked out in typical right wing nutjob flair, decided to follow through on the murderous fantasies right wing nutjobs are constantly espousing?
No he doesn't. He's saying the story doesn't add up.
Yup. It’s all too convenience they capture a man with a van that leaves NO doubt that he’s a Trump supporter.
Homeless as well this guy seemed cherrypicked to some extent. it’s just a little too convenient if you ask me. Everything they needed to convict him laying in wait..
Not saying that a Trump supporter wouldn’t do this not saying that it wasn’t someone from the left either.
It’s just too neat.
Err, yes. Have you never received a package before?

Actually the USPS said that many packages come through with light marks, they are there... but not easy to see, meaning all mail is stamped, even if you can't see it clearly.
Just thinking about it logically. The Democrats had been confident in "The Resistance" and "Blue Wave" for November. Then we get to late October and recent polls aren't looking good for them. Out of nowhere, 2 "White Male Right-Wing Middle-Aged Terrorists" in the span of a week. One of them apparently had no intention of doing damage and had an old van decked out with cheesy right-wing bumper stickers.
It's almost as suspicious as the 2 times in the past year when Trump said he was going to pull all troops out of Syria and then, out of nowhere, "chemical gas attacks" the next day.
Now tell me I'm "un-American" for pointing out statistical anomalies.
Occam’s razor; you should read about it.
Nice scripted false equivalency though on your part.
Encouraging people at his rally to chant "lock or up!" and constantly calling the media "enemies of the people" and coming up with demeaning names for various people in the Democratic party IS whipping up hate that could easily lead to violence in the weak-minded people who idolize Trump. These bombing attempts are proof of that. What else would you call it? What Trump does is far from innocent "making fun" of people. No one is saying Trump bought the man his bomb making supplies and telling him where to find instructions to build them, but he does have to accept some responsibility for his reckless rhetoric at rallies. He baits and trolls people then gets mad when the media covers him baiting and trolling people instead of kissing his ass like his rally goers do.
You are dead on with this WW. The problem is that Trump probably realizes that his hate filled rhetoric is triggering crazies like this one to commit acts of violence; he knows this - but he doesn't care. The thrill of having a mob of his supporters at his rallies surging in response to his words is something that is far more important to him that the fact that a few people might die out there as a result.
He will never admit responsibility for this, or for anything else for that matter. That is not possible in Trump's world. He is essentially a sociopath.

Not true, the polls have been shifting towards the Republicans favor since the Kavanaugh disaster for the dems.
Just look at the polls, all by two of the toss up races in the House now favor the Republicans.

Logically, you're surprised that the guy who cheers on his supporters/supporters of his platform when they engage in violence, is not responsible for his supporters/supporters of his platform engaging in violence?
Since none of the bombs actually hurt anybody, and since Dems have used similar tactics before, no, it was not unreasonable to take a wait-and-see approach.
