But Trump! It looks as if the Maryland shooting was NOT politically motivated

It looks as if there was not a political motivation behind the shooting at the Capital Gazette newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland.

There doesn't appear to be a connection to Trump's rhetoric based on what's available online by the Capital Gazette shooting suspect. His bizarre feud with the paper goes back to at least 2011.

The suspect’s name is Jarrod Ramos, and a lawsuit he filed against the newspaper in 2012 was dismissed.

NBC News: The shooting suspect's name is JARROD RAMOS. 38 years old. He was identified by multiple law enforcement officials to NBC News. He had sued the paper in 2012 for defamation. Case was tossed by a judge. @Tom_Winter @MSNBC

The suspect in the shooting is Jarrod Warren Ramos, multiple law enforcement sources tell CNN. Here’s an older article about a defamation claim he filed against the newspaper in 2012 that was dismissed.

The suspect’s name is Jarrod Ramos. This twitter account includes the decision of a lawsuit filed by Ramos against The Capital newspaper in 2013. Ramos LOST his case alleging defamation. #AnnapolisShooting https://t.co/nIbsBE0zu3

This should lead to a sad trombone for many in the media who want to make this the fault of President Donald Trump.

Here’s the judge decision. Paper reported in a case of his. This isn’t a political shooting https://t.co/3vWksloF2Y https://t.co/jdQnn1RB8c

Will that stop the attempts by some to make the shooting a product of politics?

Absolutely not.

Donald Trump’s day so far:

– Annapolis newspaper shooting
– Yeah, it’s Trump’s fault
– Sean Hannity goes berserk
– Milo Yiannopoulos in trouble
– John Kelly reportedly resigning
– Sarah Huckabee Sanders too
– Rod Rosenstein sticks it to Trump
– It’s still only 7pm
