Somebody please inform me on what I am missing to understand this. Who is the guy on the left?

Private ~~Paula~~ Pyle from Full Metal Jacket

He blew his head out because he got bullied by his sergeant and got assaulted by the whole platoon.

I still don't get the meme though.

It's Private Pyle, as in Gomer Pyle, a bumbling mechanic and later a marine, from the Andy Griffith Show, originally.

Thanks for the correction.

I really appreciate it, but this definitely doesn't help me understand the meme. Apparently I'm missing more than just the character

He shoots the sergeant then himself. So if life decides to imitate art in this case, it would be something...

Well, I forgot that he shot his sergeant first before he shot himself. It's been a while since I've seen the movie.

So the meme creator is claiming a similarity in looks between Paula and Vance and wants him to shoot trump and himself?

Not funny imo, just another bad meme with the core topic of inciting violence and supporting murder.

Maybe a bit uncouth but I'd love see the conspiracies that would spawn from something that crazy

Vance was a never Trumper wasn't he? I'd be down for a public murder-suicide for an October Surprise.

This isn’t…c’mon, that can’t be real. Can it?

At least we have confirmed that they do, in fact, stack shit that high.
