I condemn this act, and if any Republican or Trump supporter is guilty and found, he or she should be prosecuted for it. Oh you mean like the partisan Democrats, they are partisans too.

So it's more likely either a rabid MAGA or a rabid Democrat trying to rack up sympathy points for the Arizona DP. Not ruling out individual grudges or freak accidents

If Ted Cruz and his family got Goya brand beans and stocks, long before the company was even founded, I wish my family and I got Goya brand beans and stocks, long before the company was even founded. I support the President of Goya supporting Trump, I support the Goya Buy Cott movement. If it is Goya it has got to be good.
