After initial contradictory evidence regarding the political affiliation of the alleged shooter who killed a Democratic lawmaker in Minnesota on Saturday, the suspect's best friend sought to clear things up.

A man over the weekend allegedly posed as a police officer and fatally shot a Democratic state lawmaker in her home. According to the Associated Press, the same suspect also shot and wounded a second lawmaker, who could still live.

The alleged shooter, Vance Boelter, reportedly voted for Trump, according to a report reproduced on social media.

The video was posted by liberal commentator Brian Tyler Cohen.

"And there it is. The Minnesota assassin who shot Democratic lawmakers 'voted for Donald Trump and was a strong Trump supporter,' according to his best friend," he wrote.
