A 64-year-old New Jersey man who operates a Trump RV was brutally beaten with a hammer on Friday and airlifted to a local hospital in critical condition.
Rocky Granata of Edison, a beloved father and grandfather, was well-known in the region and across the nation for his Trump RV.
Granata attended Trump rallies, traveled across the country in his Trump RV and sold merchandise.
The suspect, Michael Gonzales, 36, was charged with attempted murder.
The Asbury Park Press reported:
A 64-year-old man from Edison was hospitalized after he was struck with a sledgehammer during an attack at Crown Tire on Route 36 in the Port Monmouth section on Friday, according to police.
Michael Gonzales, 36, of Philadelphia, was charged with attempted murder. He was detained by witnesses at the scene and taken into police custody upon their arrival, said Middletown Deputy Police Chief Paul J. Bailey.
The victim suffered “significant injuries to his head” and was taken by helicopter to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, Bailey said.
An investigation has determined that Gonzales struck the victim in the head multiple times with a hand-held sledgehammer, Bailey said.

I park in a public lot in NJ for mass transit and on the days I park, i always take my magnets off my car. Hate to do that but the “Don’t Tread on Me” and “Join or Die” just invite potential vandalism when your car is parked for 12 hours with nobldy watching it.
A few decades ago, someone with a name ending in a vowel would likely extract certain and appropriate punishment for Gonzales. Especially in New Jersey.
For the time being, it’s a vicarious assassination of Donald Trump. Given the trend, the vicariousness may see attempts to end some time before November. If you get my drift.
Your issue is not with Trump, but wierdos that claim Mike Pence is dead and his CGI likeness is what we now see.
A fringe group within the “Q” movement.
Not so great. He’s Michael, not Miguel.
Maybe you’re too dense to notice….Trump ain’t in charge. Sleepy Joe is
He won’t if Trump wins!
From the tolerance of “liberals” file.
The thug will probably be released in time to be on stage as a VIP speaker in the Democratic National Convention before the election.
Rat voter…
No problemo ... the DOJ will go after these perps just as soon as they have finished tracking down and punishing those parents who challenge school boards and, of course, those Jan 6th people who dared enter the peoples’ House.
I’ll go with nothing to do with Trump for the limit.
It’s not just that always wrong crowd is unanimously on the other side-it also includes zero Trump hate on the attacker’s social media.

You are correct. But I’m not sure if Captainpaintball would acknowledge that or if he is deliberately trying to conflate the two.
Thanks for the link. It may indeed have been a dispute between two acquaintances, as the article suggests, but there was no mention of how well they knew each other or what the dispute was about. It’s also worth noting that the article claims the victim has been released from the hospital.
The future under Democrats.
This is what the left wrought.
But their propaganda machine won’t report it like if a Trump supporter attacked a liberal.
Yikes!

Thank you for that post-sometimes a cigar is just a cigar-and a lunatic is just a lunatic...
Running down rabbit trails into still another conspiracy before the facts are vetted is not good-wait for the facts-then hit the rabbit trail, if you must-I’ll go with the facts instead...
