The background information I could find on the perpetrator, Samuel Patrick Groft, said that he had a criminal history, was homeless, had 666 tattooed on the back of his head in Roman numerals, and believed his mind was being controlled by “electronic weapons.”
I couldn't find anything on him being a "MAGA type", but supposing your claims about him are true - can you explain why you think he, a homeless, most likely Satanist paranoid schizophreniac, is representative of "MAGA types"? Do you think he is a typical representative of that group? Was Trump elected mostly by the homeless mentally ill?
