I have heard from multiple sources that the reason for the assassination attempt was a lovers quarrel between the 2 of them. 

Very similar to the Paul Pelosi situation.

How come people aren't talking about the problematic age gap?

Is it confirmed that Crooks was gay? It definitely would be a problematic age gap and insanely traumatizing. I haven't seen any reporting on this, but that could explain the motive and honestly makes it pretty messed up for all the memes about him. Ofc what he did was wrong, but that's an insane amount of trauma considering the age and the power dynamic gap on top of all the bullying he endured in school. Trump is a disgusting pdf because there no way that affair would have been only 2 years ago. Do you have any links to sources? I'm guessing MSM is doing a classic scrub.

You’re not actually taking this post seriously, are you?

Is it not a serious post? Hasan brought this up on stream as well.

I suppose it’s possible. I just thought that the tone of literally every other comment here indicated that it was probably a joke
user
I was the first to comment and didn't really read the others, it is tagged under "serious" as well
assistant
Fair enough, I’ll have to see what Hasan said about it

I took a look at the comments and im pretty disappointed how people aren't taking it seriously, all the time when these situations happen people jump to making memes and making fun of perpetrator instead of having sympathy for the victims.
