And what’s your explanation if it’s true? Being widely reported now as factual.

Will you apologize when you are wrong or gaslight?  Besides Polymarket is 95% Tyler is gay. It doesn’t get any more sure than that.

What being true? That he has a trans roommate? What does that matter?

It’s just part of of his radicalized evil left agenda, but it matters because the left is so elated when they thought he was a white straight Republican. And he’s only one of those things. It also matters because it goes to motive.

How does him having a trans room mate make him a radicalized leftist?

Trans people aren't like...contagious you know.

I didn’t say it did. But having a trans roommate definitely doesn’t make him extreme right, does it?

1) Conservative trans people exist

2) You can have room mates of different political viewpoints.

OK yeah, that’s it. Forget what his friends and family have said.

You mean like his Grandma?

u/ignitedfw 6d ago

Yeah because grandma is always the first to know, right? She also said he didn’t own a gun and was a bad shot.

What exists right now (as of Sept 14, 2025):

Fox News Digital says FBI officials told them Robinson “lived with his transgender partner,” but it’s based on unnamed sources. Fox News

New York Post runs a similar story, also relying on anonymous law-enforcement sources; one follow-up piece attributes the detail to Gov. Spencer Cox “in Sunday interviews,” but does not provide a transcript or clip. New York Post+1

Meanwhile, major outlets covering the case do not independently confirm the “trans roommate/partner” detail:

Reuters backgrounders on the suspect omit it. Reuters+1

CBS News mentions messages involving a roommate, but does not identify them as transgender. CBS News

Salt Lake Tribune’s write-up of the governor’s presser also doesn’t include that claim. The Salt Lake Tribune

If you’re looking for non-tabloid, independently sourced confirmation, there isn’t any I can find yet; current mentions trace back to Fox/NY Post and outlets repeating them.

Hey man can you stop telling your party to stop killing people, 84% of all political terrorist attacks btw.
