Timm then stopped his van and flipped off the
Trump supporters before driving off.
Now this lunatic is in jail.
Jacksonville police say a driver
intentionally crashed a van through a tent where Duval County GOP volunteers
were registering voters last Saturday afternoon.
Nobody was injured in the 3:45 p.m. incident
at the Walmart Supercenter, 11900 Atlantic Boulevard, near Kernan Boulevard in
the Sandalwood neighborhood, Lt. Larry Gayle of the Jacksonville Sheriff’s
Office told reporters at the scene.
Several Duval County GOP volunteers were
working at the registration tent when a white man in his early 20s driving an
older — possibly 1980s — brown van pulled up toward the tent. He then drove
through the tent, endangering the lives of the workers and damaging the tent
and tables, Gayle said.
“We are outraged by this senseless act of
violence toward our great volunteers,” said Duval GOP Chairman Dean Black in a
statement on Facebook. “The Republican Party of Duval County will not be
intimidated by these cowards and we will not be silenced. I call on every
Republican in our great city to stand up, get involved, and show these radicals
that we will not be intimidated from exercising our Constitutional rights.”
The Mayor of Jacksonville Lenny Curry also
responded to the attack.
“I just spoke to the local GOP chair. This is
outrageous. The hate is toxic and dangerous. Thankfully no one was injured but
certainly, they are shaken after being targeted because they were registering
voters. I’ve spoken to the Sheriff and of course, his team is on top of this,”
said Curry in a statement.
GOP Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel tweeted: “These
unprovoked, senseless attacks on @realDonaldTrump's supporters need to end. I
want to echo the @DuvalGOP in saying: We will not be silenced by cowards, and
these disgusting acts will only make us work harder to win November.
