Trent Schneider arrested for repeatedly posting threat to ‘execute’ President Trump

A deranged Instagram user with a history of making violent threats has been busted for repeatedly posting a video saying he planned to “execute” President Trump, according to the feds.
Trent Schneider, 57, was busted Monday in a SWAT raid at his suburban Chicago home over the posts, which included bizarre rants claiming the president is an actor with multiple body doubles, according to a criminal complaint.

“I’m going to get some guns. I know where I can get a lot of f—king guns and I am going to take care of business myself,” he said in one video he posted at least 18 times in less than a week.
“I’m tired of all you f—king frauds. People need to f—king die and people are going to die. F–k all of you, especially you Trump. You should be executed,” he allegedly said.
Schneider had previously been interviewed by the Secret Service in 2022 for unspecified threats against government officials. That same year, he was also busted for allegedly threatening to “shoot up” a T-Mobile store, but was found unfit to stand trial, the feds noted.
His latest threats seem to have been sparked in part by the fact that his home was up for foreclosure, with it due to be sold at auction Tuesday, the feds noted.
“THIS IS NOT A THREAT!!! AFTER LOSING EVERYTHING and My House Auction date is 11.04.2025 @realDonaldTrump SHOULD BE EXECUTED!!!” he allegedly wrote in a caption alongside his video.
“SHE IS A #FRAUD and a #COWARD!!! SHE CARES NOTHING ABOUT YOU or ME!!!”
A concerned citizen from Florida reported the disturbing clip to authorities, according to the complaint.
When federal agents descended on his home in Winthrop Harbor on Oct. 22 he “started yelling for the officers to get off his property.”
He then filmed the officers as they left his home an hour later and posted the video online. He was finally taken into custody by a SWAT team on Monday without incident, officials said, without elaborating on the delay.
