RT: https://truthsocial.com/users/RedState/statuses/109735701696625067 I’ve heard he’s associated with ANTIFA so, unlike the Patriots of January 6th, he’ll be just fine!

This late-night retweet exploits the Monterey Park mass shooting (11 killed) to advance a persecution narrative about January 6th defendants. Trump explicitly labels insurrection participants "Patriots" while promoting an unsubstantiated claim that the mass shooter was ANTIFA-affiliated—a claim with no law enforcement support. The psychological pattern is characteristic: splitting (patriots vs. protected criminals), passive-aggressive sarcasm channeling grievance, and opportunistic instrumentalization of tragedy. The post demonstrates diminished empathy in its immediate politicization of mass casualties and reveals a persecutory schema in which the justice system is rigged against Trump's supporters. The explicit "Patriots of January 6th" framing is clinically notable as it continues the normalization of insurrectionist activity, representing an escalation in the revisionist narrative. Danger level is elevated due to the delegitimization of the justice system combined with valorization of criminal defendants as political martyrs.

Fact Checks (2)

"The Monterey Park shooter is associated with ANTIFA"

False

The 72-year-old shooter Huu Can Tran had no established connection to ANTIFA. His motives were personal, related to grievances at the dance studio.

"January 6th participants are 'Patriots'"

Mostly False

Over 1,000 individuals were charged with federal crimes including assault on police, destruction of property, and seditious conspiracy. Courts have consistently treated the events as criminal.

Context

This is a retweet of a RedState post, likely referencing the Monterey Park mass shooting suspect (January 21-22, 2023). The post sarcastically claims the shooter will be "just fine" due to alleged ANTIFA association, while explicitly labeling January 6th participants as "Patriots." Posted at 1:14 AM EST from Mar-a-Lago—classic late-night authentic Trump timing.

Authorship

1:14 AM Eastern, stream-of-consciousness sarcasm, emotionally reactive framing. High confidence this is authentic Trump.

Psychological Analysis

The post exploits a mass shooting to advance a persecution narrative about January 6th defendants. The core mechanism is splitting: Jan 6 participants = "Patriots" (idealized), ANTIFA = the protected villain class (devalued/projected). This reveals a contamination sequence—good people (Jan 6 "Patriots") are unfairly punished while bad people (ANTIFA-associated) escape consequences.

The sarcastic tone ("he'll be just fine!") channels grievance through passive aggression. The underlying schema: the justice system is rigged against Trump's supporters and favorable toward his perceived enemies.

Danger Assessment

The post explicitly reframes January 6th participants as "Patriots," normalizing insurrectionist activity. It instrumentalizes a mass casualty event for political grievance within hours of the shooting. The false equivalence minimizes both the shooting and January 6th violence simultaneously.
