Him being registered republican doesn’t necessarily mean he still feels that way. He made a blue political donation. Some people register with a certain party just because their parents are present when they sign up.

I don't think there is currently enough public information to build an accurate profile on him.

He made a blue political donation

To a GOTV PAC. On inauguration day.

About as useful as tits on a tractor.

Well, if you’re a lonely farmer and there aren’t any single and willing women around, tits on a tractor could be very useful.

Pretty sure a RealDoll or something like that would be more pleasurable and cost less including upkeep 🤷

He was 20 and registered to vote in 2021 (which is public information), so he wouldn't have had a lot of time to change his mind

Trump and the Supreme Court are more than enough reason to change one’s mind.

At 20, 3 years is definitely a long time.

Someone with same first and last name as him made a donation after the 2020 election.

You can look up the receipt on the FEC and the address is listed as 2506 Milford Drive, which is the same address as his voter registration and what's being reported on the news. I keep seeing this "there is another Thomas Crooks" narrative online and wanted to confirm myself.

Wouldn't he have been 16 at the time?
