"He was very patriotic": Vegas Cybertruck bombing suspect's family says he "loved Trump"

The man behind the wheel of a Tesla Cybertruck that exploded in front of Trump Tower in Las Vegas on Wednesday was a Donald Trump-loving “super soldier,” according to a family member who spoke with The Independent on Thursday.

Matthew Livelsberger’s uncle, Dean Livelsberger, told the outlet that he was shocked to hear his nephew was involved in the explosion.

“He used to have all patriotic stuff on Facebook, he was 100 percent loving the country,” the elder Livelsberger told The Independent. “He loved Trump, and he was always a very, very patriotic soldier, a patriotic American. It’s one of the reasons he was in Special Forces for so many years. It wasn’t just one tour of duty.”
