My most plausible theory: This guy is a left-wing nutcase who flipped out.

My most plausible conspiracy theory: Democrats manipulated this guy into the mass shooting to change a narrative that they are losing, just as they said on Project Veritas video that they manipulate crazy people at Trump rallies. [Unlikely, but it’s more likely than anything else other than a nutcase flipping out.]

He has to be planning this for weeks, if not months, so this is not a flip out.
I am thinking there might be a bigger political picture (beyond gun control) that I can’t see.
Or He might be a Left Wing Breivik.
Or he might have been the fall guy for someone else.

This is where I'm leaning as well.

I don't believe he was radicalized by ISIS at age 64.
I don't believe he's AntiFa.
I don't believe he's the pink pussyhat wearing protestor at the rally in Reno that's been making the rounds.

I believe he's a wealthy, angry misanthrope who has women troubles and drinks too much, hates Trump but probably didn't even bother to vote, and has been "radicalized" by CNN. At some point he "flipped out" and planned this elaborate Vegas bloodbath/suicide.

No doubt about it, much planning was involved.

Yesterday I was of the opinion that ideology wasn't involved. Paddock was just an angry, crazy man. Since then, I watched a video by Scott (Dilbert) Adams, a man I respect, who painted a pretty compelling case that the crowd he targeted; young, white, country music fans, was no accident and this guy was deliberately out to harm people who voted for Trump.
