Trump-loving bomb suspect claimed to be a Seminole -- but the tribe denies he's a member

In a statement to Politico Florida correspondent Marc Caputo, however, tribal spokesman Gary Bitner said “there’s no record of him being a member of the Tribe.”

“He’s not a member of the Seminole Tribe, has never been a member of the Seminole Tribe,” the statement read.

The tribe acknowledged that it’s “difficult” to know for sure whether the suspect was a member because he “has used so many names,” but added that he never worked for the tribe as well — another of Sayoc’s claims.

Along with claiming to work for the Seminoles, Sayoc also owned or managed a company called Native American Catering.

2. If Trump mentions this at all he'll turn it into an attack on Warren

Because his mind is twisted and to him it would be funny to conflate the bomber with Warren - thereby conflating him with Democrats.

His cult zombies will laugh and in their minds, the connection will now be made.

Reality plays no part in Trump's thinking or in the thinking of his red hat zombies.

If he can use this to attack Warren, he will.

Doesn't have to make sense - it's Trump.

If he mentions it at all. Trump won't even name the victims - he might not talk about the suspect except in the broadest terms. Only thanking law enforcement for a job well done and turning the capture into his own success.
