How do you know he had a mental disorder?

True but Republicans also said it.
/----/ Bullied in school, then tried to assassinate a candidate. GEEE, I wonder if he had a mental disorder.
Wonder in one hand and ish in the other one and see which one fills up the fastest.
Picked up on it, didn't create it.
Do normal everyday Americans somehow climb up on a roof and attempt to kill someone?
Why does the narrative change when the assailant is black?
What's that got to do with how does anyone know he had a mental disorder?
I think I hit it on the head.
Did you hit it on the head? What normal person walks in a store and shoots and kills someone?
What normal person climbs on a roof and tries to kill someone?
See above response.
Let me see......white people walk in stores and shoot and kill, Latino people walk in stores and shoot and kill, Asian people walk in stores and shoot and kill and OMG, black people walk in stores and shoot and kill.
Are these people all 'normal'?
The difference is, the only one you will say has mental problems is the white person.
I say they all do. You're the one that sees it that way.

Oh yeah? What is the substantive difference between GOP violent rhetoric and DNC violent rhetoric. You need to clarify please.
Why?
Because the evidence is that this is the same for both.
'Rise in violent rhetoric': Lawmakers in both parties report spike in death threats - Roll Call
Two-thirds of lawmakers who responded to a CQ Roll Call survey reported experiencing death threats as America's politics grow more heated.
". . CQ Roll Call asked every member of Congress whether they had received a death threat since 2020. Of the 147 who responded, 110 — or about 75 percent — said yes. While more Democrats replied to our inquiry than Republicans, 95 to 52, death threats were pervasive among both parties: 74 percent of Democrats said they had received one, compared with 77 percent of GOP respondents. . .

What Is False Equivalence Fallacy?
"The false equivalence fallacy is one where the speaker or writer compares one thing to another to try to draw a logical conclusion, when in fact no such similarity exists meaning that no such conclusion can be drawn. To look at it in even more simple terms, you might say that ‘that is not equal to this’ in essence disproving a claim containing a false equivalence fallacy. In many cases, upon first hearing a false equivalence fallacy, one might automatically assume that the opposing arguments are in fact, logically equal but upon closer inspection, it becomes obvious that they are not.This type of fallacy shows a cognitive bias in which ideas, situations, objects or events are compared to one another by the writer or speaker who claims that they are the same as each other when in reality there are many differences between the two. The differences within a false equivalence fallacy can be made up of anything such as quantity, appearance, and many others. It is very easy for this type of fallacy to make its way into the conversation and it quite often makes an appearance in the media. . . "
OMG. That's horrible.
I haven't heard the GOP calling out to kill Biden and others in media.
There has been an excess of violent rhetoric from the left since 2015/6

If apolitical he should have targeted Biden or Harris and gone out in a larger "Blaze of Glory".
