There are two explanations which I don’t find ludicrous, if you assume the shooter to be far right:
He was a Qanoner who bought the “we’ve gotta hunt the pedophiles” but didn’t develop the cognitive dissonance to also think “but that doesn’t mean Trump obviously”.
He was angry about Trump trying to distance himself from Project 2025 (even though that was merely rhetoric, but an angry and radical 20 years old may not understand that).
