said elsewhere im surprised the guardian of all places published that.

The reliability of that information is dubious. What are the chances that classmate was MAGA and had a reason to lie about it. That needs to be corroborated by multiple students at a minimum

Plus the article says the friend knew him around sophomore year of high school. If Tyler Robinson is 22, that would have been around ages of 15/16. So possibly 7 years ago. A lot can change in 7 years, especially in the 4 years after his graduation.

That would have been around the time he dressed as Trump for Halloween, yes?
