Capitol rioter: I am a Democrat who didn't support Trump
By MICHAEL KUNZELMAN
today

A Maryland man who pleaded guilty to joining the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol says he is a registered Democrat who wasn’t a supporter of former President Donald Trump and found himself at the scene as an “accidental tourist.” Prosecutors counter that he appeared to be proud of his actions that day.

Robert Reeder, 55, took a train to Washington, D.C., to hear Trump’s speech on Jan. 6 because he had “nothing better to do,” his lawyer said in a court filing Wednesday. Reeder made a “spur of the moment decision and regrettable mistake” when he attended the rally and followed a crowd of people to the Capitol after the speech, the attorney wrote.

“Mr. Reeder is not politically active, is not and has never been a member of any right-wing or anti-government or extremist group and has, unfortunately, been publicly grouped with many others (whose) views he abhors,” defense attorney Robert Bonsib wrote.

5. LOTS of closeted right wingers registered as dems in Maryland, I am sorry to say

They think they have no voice otherwise. They also claim that they are bipartisan, since they're voting for Republicans. I wish it weren't true, but it is.

I mean, idk about THIS guy in particular, but there are LOTS of registered dems here who are really Republicans. The rest say they're "independent"

8. Let me guess, not only was he a Democrat, he was Antifa, too.

This is one of the more creative stories anyway.

16. yuh, right, dems wear red maga hats and go to trump rallies out of boredom

then fight their way into the capitol and brag about it on rwnj sites.

Ok. Sounds reasonable. About as reasonable as the world is flat.

20. There surely are registered dem's who are hat wearing rwnj's.....

Doesn't mean they are dems. It's just a box you choose when registering, and it can be changed anytime - say 1/19......
