And IMO, the attacker used the slurs and MAGA as a way to deflect from the real reason for the attack, as an attempt to not get caught(rather than yell: 'you stole my boyfriend').

But I believe the victim has no clue who/why this attack occurred and is reporting what occurred. I also think the person that wrote the letter is associated with the attack.

Just my guess though.

Exactly. This is an attention-****** hoax.

Ha, it could be a girl (at least one of the attackers). IMO, the person on the right in the grainy video walks like some females .... One foot in front of the other as if walking a tightrope. Models and actresses walk this way as they are aware of a camera and this makes someone look thinner when on camera. They learn to always walk this way. Some fashion obsessed/aware women also walk this way as well. So maybe it's an actress with a beef or a fashionista gay man that walks like that.

If your ribs are broken - it hurts to laugh , cry or breathe - there is no way this guy is out there singing so soon with a fractured rib - even if it was a hairline fracture. Treatment these days is to restricting activities and ice the area regularly as well as pain relief.
He clarified to the crowd he doesn’t have broken/injured ribs. He also told them he kicked the Individual 1 supporters’ behinds.

Good for him!

Well that's not entirely accurate...

All the while miraculously keeping his Subway sandwich intact... while talking on the phone and fighting off 2 attackers.
