The morning news out here reported that the suspect is, "an active Ukraine supporter and vocal Trump critic". Given how adamant Trump has been about ending the war in Ukraine, it wouldn't be outlandish to speculate that this guy sees the war as "good vs. evil" as its been characterized by the media and politicians and since Trump pledged to end the war before the inaugaration if he gets elected, to him, Trump needed to go. Pretty crazy that the secret service apparently saw the gun sticking out of the bushes and acted, but didn't think the other shooter on the roof was a threat...
