Thomas Crooks, the man who was radicalized into shooting Donald Trump, had a secret social media account on Gab. It was his secret Biden gooning account. He used it to publicly give Biden sloppy toppies in front of conservatives while gooning.

Trump gunman Thomas Crooks likely had a Gab account that he used to ‘support’ President Biden, site’s CEO says
The gunman who tried to assassinate former President Donald Trump appears to have used the controversial alt-right favored social media platform Gab to spread messages “in support of President Biden,” according to the platform’s founder.
Gab CEO Andrew Torba said he learned Wednesday that Thomas Matthew Crooks “may have had an account on our platform” after getting “an emergency disclosure request from a law enforcement agency.”
The account @epicmicrowave — which the CEO stressed he has been “unable to confirm” was definitely Crooks’ — “posted on the site nine (9) times total,” Torba tweeted just 30 minutes after getting the law enforcement request.
“While the account made very few posts on the site, the majority of them were in support of President Biden,” said the CEO of the platform launched in 2016 as a completely free-speech alternative to Twitter.
“A number of posts in particular expressed support for President Biden’s COVID lockdowns, border policies and executive orders.”
In one, the poster mocked someone sharing an election projection, writing in February 2021: “Didn’t you also think Biden would lose in a landslide yeah I would not be very confident in your election predictions.”
In another thread, the user defended Biden’s border policies with a study that compared crime statistics for undocumented immigrants, legal immigrants and American citizens in Texas.
