On Wednesday, a Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. The driver, Matthew Alan Livelsberger, a decorated combat veteran, died in the blast. Seven others were injured. Livelsberger, who was struggling with PTSD, left behind letters expressing his political views. He wanted Democrats removed from the military and government. He also supported Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Livelsberger saw the US as a country in decline. He believed Americans only pay attention to spectacles and violence. Livelsberger was on leave from his Army base in Germany when the incident happened. The blast was caused by a mix of fireworks, gas tanks, and camping fuel. Livelsberger's actions were likely a result of his personal struggles and political beliefs. Investigations are ongoing.
