"Channel 4 News can reveal that Thomas Crooks's, [the shooter's] father, the owner of the rifle that was used to shoot at Donald Trump, was held on a database and profiled by the former president's election campaign and identified by them as a strong Republican supporter, gun owner and hunter. The information was compiled as part of a secret Republican project to gather data on millions of gun owners across America and use it to target pro-gun messages in the run up to the 2016 election...We know they profiled them using secret computer models to identify likely gun owners and enthusiasts, and Mr. Crooks scored very highly, 0.99 out of 1 for being a gun owner and 0.95 out of one 1 being a hunter. In fact, out of more than 19,000 people in Bethel Park who were profiled, Mr. Crooks was in the top 20 and the database classified him as a strong GOP or Republican voter."

#11 I read that the father is a registered Libertarian, the mother is a registered Democrat and Thomas was a resigistered Republican.

He was a registered Republican, records show, and he once donated to ActBlue $15 earmarked for the Progressive Turnout Project. His mother was a registered Democrat; his father, a Libertarian who investigators say legally purchased the gun found next to Mr. Crooks after he was shot and killed by Secret Service counter-snipers.
