Oh, you poor fuckers. OFC it has nothing to do with a cheeto. It's all about white supremacy,tho.
Good luck.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

How about we discuss the event without playing connect the dots to Trump. His diagnosis means nothing in this case. What needs to be happen is the reason for killings should be ascertained so that others that may be involved can be identified. Let the facts be revealed...that's how you can begin to understand.
His diagnosis means everything.
He certainly is not the starting point, but he is the diagnosis after the fact.

Iran hasn't invaded anybody for a very long time. It was a democracy when America kicked out the elected leader.
Saudi Arabia is violent largely because the US supports anything it does.
Kim Jong Un is behaving reasonably, since recent leaders who gave up their WMD have consequently been killed by the US (Gaddafi, Saddam).
The US is the major force for violence in the world. Trump won the election in part because he said he'd stop unnecessary wars and bring the troops home. Of course he didn't keep that promise, but we knew that Hillary would maintain the violent status quo as well.

If Hitler stopped at France and did not invade Russia, would that suddenly mean he was for free and open elections? Are you going to try to argue that Iran will magically and suddenly have a Sunni PM, maybe a Jewish or Christian PM? I know atheists are well thought of even among Christians. Please name me any president in American history who ran on "I don't believe in God" and took an oath on "The Origin Of The Species", instead of a bible.

So what are our options, live under China or Russia or North Korea, because they are far more likely to fund Iran than we would.
I am NOT giving our American conservatives a pass. I think far too much of old white money is still stuck on beating Hitler. But to claim every politician of any party wants our enemies to have power, or that everyone wants America to be colonialists is bullshit.
Conservatism promotes violence, not pluralism. Iran, China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and North Korea, are hardly bastions of western pluralism.
Is there a rest area somewhere between here and your fucking point?

The first Muslim man to die, his final words were 'hello brother'.
"These words were uttered by a man who symbolised Islam. He had a rifle pointed at him by a man with clear intentions to kill and how did he respond? With anger? With aggression? No, with the most gentle and sincere greeting of 'hello brother'".
