Cesar Sayoc, the Donald Trump-loving Floridian who was taken into custody in relation to pipe bombs mailed to prominent Democrats, was foreclosed on in 2009 by a bank whose principal owner and chair is now Trumps treasury secretary, Steven Mnuchin.
The documents used to enact the foreclosure were signed by a prominent robo-signer and seemingly backdated. Nonetheless, the evidence was good enough for the famously inattentive Florida foreclosure courts to wave the case through. Years later, Sayoc became a supporter of Trump, who came into office and appointed a treasury secretary who ran the bank that snatched Sayocs house.
The Intercept obtained the records by searching Broward County foreclosure documents, which are all public.

So, trump's swamp took this guy down, and then without realizing the very people who helped destroy Sayoc's life, he is worshiping.
A house foreclosure may have been the tipping point for this man and he unraveled from there.
It is extra tragic people do not understand they are being lied to and taken advantage of. Trump, and his cronies, step all over "his base". He does not likes them, he uses them and they have no idea it is happening.

Lawyer for mail bomb suspects family: 'He found a father in Trump'
"A lawyer for the family of Cesar Sayoc Jr., the man charged with mailing explosive devices to several prominent Democratic figures this week, said Friday that Sayoc "found a father" in President Trump.
Miami lawyer Ronald Lowy made the comments on CNN while discussing the arrest of Sayoc, someone he said he had represented in past cases and whom he described as a "sick individual" who seemed "lost" and needed help.
"He was looking for anything, and he found a father in Trump," Lowy said, noting that the man's father "abandoned him as a child" and "he was trying to create an identity."
Lowy said that he believes Sayoc was attracted to Trumps messaging, which included reaching out to outsiders and people who are angry at America.
