The 21-year-old man shot and killed by Secret Service agents after allegedly attempting to break into President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in the early hours of Sunday came from a family of “avid Trump supporters,” according to a relative.

The FBI confirmed the suspect was Austin Tucker Martin, who entered the premises at the resort’s north gate armed with a shotgun and a gas canister around 1:30 a.m. Sunday.

Trump and the first lady, Melania Trump, were not at the Florida residence at the time.

    Why go through life being a coward afraid of anything that moves, when you can go through life being a coward while getting paid with a loaded weapon at all times to be afraid of anything that moves.

      I mean my favorite JFK theory is that that JFK got shot when the secret service car slammed on the brakes after Oswald opened fire on the governor of texas.

      The funniest possible way for trump to die is his own secret service blasting him while trying to take down a perp.
