Was Thomas Matthew Crooks manipulated by spirit meddlers to attack Donald Trump, and how significant a role did the media and all the partisan political rhetoric play in motivating this would-be assassin?

Indeed, there were spirit meddlers egging him on and everyone involved in the political turmoil of today had a hand, karmically and personally, in their contributions to the palpable hatred of Donald Trump in making him out to be a kind of demonic figure as though he were Hitler incarnate and a threat to the well-being and survival of the nation. Those extremes become a drumbeat when the interlopers wish to push someone over the edge into criminality to carry out a nefarious plan of some kind, to heighten negativity and the suffering of people everywhere, witnessing acts of evil and feeling helpless in the face of the gathering storm. This hapless young man was manipulated by his inner anguish to identify with the downtrodden and wanting revenge and to feel safe. Who has created those circumstances so broadly within the culture and who has reinforced that perspective of life being unfair, that all are victims of racism and other prejudices and have no real chance at happiness? When people are bombarded by reminders of such messages, subliminally, on a constant basis, they will be won over eventually, because that will substitute for conventional wisdom in the substitution of a group-think that is a distortion and exaggeration of implied motives. But keep in mind, those distortions and exaggerations are a manipulation as well, so it becomes a round robin of delights with the manipulated becoming manipulators of others, in a vicious cycle of corruption and degradation leading all too often to acts of violence that cannot be recalled.
