Trump Supporter Charged After Setting His Own Trailer On Fire And Defacing Garage With 'Biden 2020'

A Minneapolis, Minnesota Trump supporter has been indicted by a federal grand jury on 2 counts of wire fraud after it was discovered he set fire to his own trailer and defaced his garage with pro-Biden and Black Lives Matter graffiti then claimed he was a victim of arsonists because of his Trump MAGA flags.

29-year-old Denis Vladmirovich Molla made the news in September of 2020 when his trailer and vehicles burned and graffiti including the phrases "Biden 2020", "BLM" and the anarchy symbol—a capital letter "A" in a circle—were found on his garage.


Molla then submitted multiple insurance claims for the damages to his property, as well as collecting more than $17,000 from donations made to two GoFundMe accounts.

Court documents stated Molla:

"submitted multiple insurance claims seeking coverage for the damage to his garage, camper, vehicles, and residence caused by the fire."

Molla originally claimed the fire was set because he was a Trump supporter and made a big deal of how it affected his family.

Molla's wife Deana told reporters after the fire:

"My son’s bedroom, his window is facing the garage."
"My son smelled like smoke this morning when I was putting him down to sleep after the whole thing, he smelled like smoke, so it just blows my mind that someone would stoop this low."

Denis said in 2020:

"It just shocked me."
"These kind of stuff should not happen, especially over beliefs of some sort."

KARE 11's Lou Raguse tweeted about his recent conversation with Molla, in which his willingness to talk about the fire seemed to have drastically changed.

Twitter users were largely unsurprised to find out the whole thing was a setup.






Molla had his first court appearance on Tuesday.

Nancy Sinatra Shuts Down MAGA Fan Who Claimed Her Famous Dad Would've Voted For Trump

It's no secret that MAGA Republican President Donald Trump hasn't been able to attract the cream of the crop when it comes to the entertainment industry. While Kid Rock, Kevin Sorbo and Scott Baio are Trump ride or dies, pretty much every other Hollywood or music legend or rising star is taking a pass on Trump.

And some outright despise the man and let everyone know. Often.
