For all we know right now, this could have been someone protesting what's going on in Gaza right now. We don't know it was a Trump supporter.

What could this man that burned himself up have to do with Trump's trail? Please 😢

Does this have to do with thr airmen who set himself on fire to. Is this about the war genocide atrocity and crimes

Did they arrest him for cultural appropriation of the Buddhists' , or smoking in a public area? After all it is N.Y. right.

[@kevinedwards6093]

Nothing worse than Cultural Appropriation.

[@barlowsmith6242]

Oh that makes sense. he is from Florida so it would feel real cold in New York for him.
