And now we find out he was a Trump supporter and volunteer. Surprise, surprise...
The New Jersey Shooting Suspect Left a Pro-Trump Paper TrailIn a trove of documents published online, Roy Den Hollander directed misogynistic and racist insults at U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas, and expressed support for the president.In contrast, he writes in the same sprawling document that he was a volunteer for the presidential campaign of Donald Trump, who he said “was telling the truth about illegal aliens in his bid for the Presidency.” Den Hollander describes “leaving the law library in the early afternoon for Trump Tower, 12 blocks up Fifth Avenue, to make telephone calls during the primaries and the general election.” Recounting his time working for the campaign, he says most of his fellow volunteers “were aging baby boomers like me. Once in a while some hot young model chick would show up to make calls. They never sat next to me.” The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a question about the nature of Den Hollander’s volunteer work, or whether they had any record of his involvement.
He was elated by Trump’s election (“Every so often truth and justice win out”) and says he attended his inauguration in January 2017, bringing with him his red make america great again hat and describing Trump’s “American carnage” speech as “short but solid.” He says he was being interviewed by a French TV reporter when “some Antifa millennial” interfered with the camera shot. Implausibly, he claims that he showed mercy by not using “a spear hand strike” on the Millennial, because “he would have been dead,” and that a local D.C. police officer was so impressed with his toughness that he asked Den Hollander “to apply to my squad.”
I did volunteer work for Trump’s campaign because I hate PC-Feminism more than I hate America,” he writes. “If I had hated America more, I would have worked for Hillary’s campaign.”
