Crusius ended the manifesto by saying he expected to be killed in the attack he would allegedly carry out on Saturday. As it turned out, the shooter was not, and he is now behind bars, charged with killing 22 people and wounding 26 others. He said his actions would be misunderstood as being tied to Trump,” York wrote. “My ideology has not changed for several years,” Crusius wrote. “My opinions on automation, immigration, and the rest predate Trump and his campaign for president. I [am] putting this here because some people will blame the President or certain presidential candidates for the attack. This is not the case. I know that the media will probably call me a white supremacist anyway and blame Trump’s rhetoric. The media is infamous for fake news. Their reaction to this attack will likely just confirm that.” York said: “That was the only time Trump appeared in the manifesto, and it appears clear that Crusius borrowed his ‘fake news’ characterization of the news media from the president. But that is not what Trump’s critics have charged. They have charged that Trump inspired Crusius to kill. They have charged it so often in the last few days that it has hardened into a general perception that Crusius was inspired by the president. But read the manifesto. It’s just not there.” On Twitter, Bryan Jones responded to York: “Excellent piece. ‘I know that the media will probably call me a white supremacist anyway and blame Trump’s rhetoric. The media is infamous for fake news.

Elizabeth] Warren for Dayton. … the monsters who pulled the trigger are responsible.” Read more at wnd.com
