Democrat Man — Who Uses She/Her Pronouns — Arrested for Allegedly Threatening To Kill Trump

A male Pennsylvania Democrat — who uses she/her pronouns — was arrested after he allegedly said he would like to shoot former President Donald Trump ahead of a rally at Pennsylvania State University.

The 74-year-old resident, Paul J. Gavenonis, was reportedly overheard saying he’d like to shoot Trump while he was purchasing a parking pass at the university transportation office ahead of Trump’s rally on Saturday at the college, the Lexington Herald Leader reported.

The staff member at the transportation office became alarmed by his comments and called the police.

According to the university police, the registered Democrat described how he planned to climb to the top of one of the buildings and said, “You can’t take a gun in or the students will see it,” the outlet noted. He was also quoted allegedly saying, “I hate Donald Trump. I’d like to shoot that guy.”

The man was then interviewed by both Penn State police and the Secret Service, where police quoted him as saying, “Frankly, I hope somebody would get him.” After his arrest, he reportedly admitted to the police that he had a rifle at his home.
