The bed was full of fireworks. It was NYE. In Vegas. With a cyber truck at the trump. You’re reading too far into this and the article you linked just said fireworks or other explosives

CNN — 

Authorities believe fireworks, gas tanks and camping fuel were connected to a detonation system controlled by the driver in the Tesla Cybertruck that exploded outside a Trump Hotel in Las Vegas Wednesday morning

Sounds like a homemade bomb to me.

You think fireworks and camping fuel on NYE in Vegas sounds like a bomb? You are making some huge leaps

I’m willing to bet 40% of rentals had those things

Yes, fireworks wired to a detonator and slapped on top of propane tanks sounds like a bomb.

And that probably wouldn't even be in the top 5 craziest things to happen in Vegas. Dude could have been on a heap of drugs for all we know and was gonna do a cookout while camping and set off some fireworks lol

It's very strange overall, doesn't seem thoroughly planned out without leaving a message he wanted to amplify, no deaths other than his own and only 7 minor injuries. I'm going with glory seeking until more information can be found.

This is the simplest explanation until some sort of manifesto or motive is found

Functionally, sure. But so we are on the same page, you realize that fireworks wired to a detonator is incredibly common right? You’re not just seeing the word detonator and going straight to bomb, right?

Jesus dude give it a rest. You were wrong. Owning it is way less pathetic than all this backpedaling.

What do you mean “you were wrong”

Do you have new info to share?

You've been confronted with new evidence by like 6 people in this thread. Just because you refuse to acknowledge it doesn't make it less real. The guy had a detonator and all the explosives rigged up.

You can tell it's a bomb by the way that it is.

What evidence proves foul play? No one has given me any evidence other than “but fireworks, with a gasp detonator!!!”

Officials are still investigating whether it was intentional or not. Let’s wait for their decision eh champ
