That comment is classic.
I was about to post something similar, and sadly, was too slow.

For the exact same reason...affiliation with a political figurehead.

Take the politician out of the story and there's nothing to talk about.
Actually there is - because the same news outlets have also posted about other vehicles bursting into flames in the last couple of weeks - one being a Tesla.

There is actually a recall for Ford and fires - saw that a couple of days ago.

More than half a million 2020 to 2023 Ford Escape and 2021 to 2023 Ford Bronco Sport SUVs equipped with 1.5-liter, three-cylinder engines are being recalled to address a potential issue with a cracked fuel injector that risks fire.

Even consumer reports, and real news outlets have it.

It spread towards the white tank. The JT was the last vehicle before the tank and looks to me like it put up a fight only half burning. Way to go Jeep! Still got that army fight in it!!!

So which one was the REAL target? The others were just random to throw us off, to cover the real target. One of those vehicles was targeted.

The Secret Service needed the Gladiator for all the hookers and blow they use during their off hours.
