Sayoc's social media profiles show dozens of photos of him around South Florida and attending Trump rallies. They also claim he works for the Hard Rock Hotel, but a spokesperson said there is no evidence of this.
Sayoc, whose grandmother's last name was Altieri, goes by Cesar Altieri in his online profiles. They show he was a serious Trump supporter who loathed the Clintons and George Soros.

On October 3, Sayoc tweeted at Eric Holder, one of the people to whom a bomb was addressed, saying, "See u soon Tick Tock."
In another, he targeted Joe Biden, who also received a bomb, calling him a "piece of slime trash."
