A new public police report reveals that Gregory Timm, the man who drove a van into a GOP tent in an attempt to mow down Trump supporters apparently did have a political motive.
The police report indicates “The suspect advised that he does not like President Trump.”
There are several parts that are blacked out which may be specific groups Timm is associated with.
Per Breitbart, while authorities initially indicated that the motivation remained unclear, Timm told officers that he did it because “someone had to take a stand,” according to the police report.
Timm told authorities that he noticed the tent while picking up food and cigarettes at the store and willingly showed investigators the video of the incident. According to JSO’s report, Timm was “upset that the video ended before ‘the good part,’” when he crashed into the tent.
He also told the officers that he does not like President Trump:
NEW from Jacksonville. The police report is public and it is abundantly clear that he attacked the @realDonaldTrump volunteers b/c he does not like the President. Unbelievable. #LeadRight pic.twitter.com/gAMt8JSTzs

Donald Trump Jr. commented:
Where is the outraged media? Why are they so silent on this? This would be the number one story in the world right now if it was a Trump supporter doing it to a group of liberals.
It’s a disgrace that they don’t even pretend to pay attention to growing leftist violence
