   Looks like Robert Bower, the Pittsburg synagogue shooter, was critical of Trump, saying that “Trump is a globalist, not a nationalist,” and “There is no #MAGA as long as there is a [Jewish] infestation.”

   He reminds me very much of Anders Behring Breivik (the Norwegian terrorist and right wing conspiracy theorist), who had initially joined the Progress Party (populist right wing political party) but left it because it wasn't right wing enough for him.

      The difference between Anders Breivik and Robert Bower is that, although Breivik claimed to be a member of the Knights Templar group of latter-day Christian crusaders (no evidence of such a group existing was ever found), he didn't hate the Jews. He saw the Zionists as a crucial ally in the great battle against the Muslims. In other words, he was pro-Israel. Being American and hating the Jews seems like such an odd thing, since America has seemingly always been welcoming of them.
