The TOTAL BRO who scaled Trump Tower didn’t do it in protest or as an assassination plot, as you might have thought when you first heard the news. That’s what I assumed, but then I was like, whatever, this guy is still awesome, whatever his politics.
He was a supporter.
Because only Trump supporters do things so awesome as scaling 22 stories with suction cups.
The man who used large suction cups to climb up the glass facade of Trump Tower in New York City was identified Thursday as 19-year-old Stephen Rogata from the Washington, D.C. suburb of Great Falls, Virginia, and was charged with reckless endangerment and criminal trespassing.
The climber wore a backpack and used a harness and rope stirrups to fasten himself to the side of the 68-story Manhattan skyscraper on Wednesday. He climbed as high as the 21st floor before officers grabbed him.
Rogata was undergoing psychiatric evaluation at Bellevue Hospital Thursday.
A day before the ascent, police said the climber posted a video on YouTube entitled, “Message to Mr. Trump (why I climbed your tower).” He posted the video under the name Leven Thumps, which is a character in a series of children’s fantasy novels by the writer Obert Skye.
“I am an independent researcher seeking a private audience with you to discuss an important matter. I guarantee that it’s in your interest to honor this request,” he said. “Believe me, if my purpose was not significant, I would not risk my life pursuing it. The reason I climbed your tower is to get your attention. If I had sought this via conventional means, I would be much less likely to have success because you are a busy man with many responsibilities.”
Here’s his video – he says “vote Trump” at the end, which the media isn’t really reporting.
Appears autistic. But whatever. He’s still awesome.
And maybe he was just nervous before his big event, causing him to appear autistic.
The tower is headquarters to Donald Trump’s Republican presidential campaign and his business empire. Trump also lives there, though he was in Virginia in the afternoon and was headed to Florida for an evening event.
The man played a slow-motion cat-and-mouse game with his would-be rescuers as he climbed Trump Tower. Officers smashed windows and broke through ventilation ducts to block his progress. Police also lowered themselves toward the man using a window washer’s platform.
The climber kept his distance by methodically working his way back and forth across the facade, repeatedly repositioning suction cups resembling a type commonly used by window washers to remove big panes of glass.
The chase ended dramatically just after 6:30 p.m.
As a crowd gasped on the street below, two officers leaned far out of a window, grabbed the climber’s arm and harness, and in a flash yanked him from his dangling stirrups. He went through the opening head first, his legs pointed skyward.
Obviously, Trump must meet with him. No question there.
The question is, should he wait until after the election.
I’m torn. It would get negative press, like everything Trump does, but it would be a fun distraction if he’s got something else going on. Like, during that whole Khan debacle, if he would have done a press conference with this guy, it would have steadied the media a bit.
So, I would advise him to keep a meeting with this guy as a backup plan if the kike media is specifically focusing on some particularly corrosive bit of nonsense.
