“Ugh, I really wanted to finish the hole. I was even and I had a birdie putt.”
That was Donald Trump’s reaction to the second attempt on his life, which took place at 1:30PM on Sunday at his International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, while the former and possibly future president was playing a round of golf. A bit later, Trump wrote: “There were gunshots in my vicinity but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!”
The would-be assassin has been identified as Ryan Routh. The New York Post reported Sunday afternoon that according to “law enforcement sources,” the would-be assassin is “a white man in his 50s who is believed to be from Hawaii. An assault rifle was recovered at the scene, which was earlier reported to be an AK-47.” He also “had a GoPro camera on him at the time of his arrest, leading authorities to investigate whether he was intending to record himself committing the shooting.”
The Associated Press noted that “pointed the firearm’s muzzle into Donald Trump’s golf club.” This led Secret Service agents “to open fire, according to three law enforcement officials.” Journalist Raheem Kassam states: “Palm Beach sheriff says 1:30pm EST was ‘shots fired’ after which they locked down the area. Man was in bushes. Local witness took picture of man jumping into black Nissan and shared with cops. Vehicle stopped in Martin Country, detained man. Witness identified suspect shortly after. AK-47 with scope and GoPro in backpack recovered.”
Martin County, Florida Sheriff William D. Snyder explained: “The suspect’s demeanor, I would describe as having a relatively calm, flat, affect. He was not displaying a lot of emotions. Never asked what this is about. He was not armed when we took him out of the car.”
The Post also said that “the Secret Service said they have yet to determine a motive,” while adding that “the suspect made frequent pro-Ukraine and pro-Taiwan posts on social media.” Journalist Jordan Schachtel reports that “Ryan Routh, the aspiring Trump assassin, was well connected to Ukraine’s military. He had many contacts in Ukraine, per New York Times, which said he had spent several months in Ukraine (presumably to join the foreign legion and recruit for them) in 2022.”
Schachtel linked to a March 2023 New York Times article that said this:
Ryan Routh, a former construction worker from Greensboro, N.C., is seeking recruits from among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban. Mr. Routh, who spent several months in Ukraine last year, said he planned to move them, in some cases illegally, from Pakistan and Iran to Ukraine. He said dozens had expressed interest.
“We can probably purchase some passports through Pakistan, since it’s such a corrupt country,” he said in an interview from Washington.
It is not clear whether he has succeeded, but one former Afghan soldier said he had been contacted and was interested in fighting if it meant leaving Iran, where he was living illegally.
Was this the same man who tried to kill Trump? He was trying to recruit Afghans to fight in Ukraine, eh? Ukraine, where Old Joe Biden and so many other American politicians had corrupt dealings.
Whatever may be going on with that, and we will likely never find out, Routh’s motive can be summed up in one word: leftism. A man named Ryan Routh wrote on X on April 22: “@POTUS
Your campaign should be called something like KADAF. Keep America democratic and free. Trumps should be MASA …make Americans slaves again master. DEMOCRACY is on the ballot and we cannot lose. We cannot afford to fail. The world is counting on us to show the way.” Whether or not the actual would-be assassin wrote that, it’s very likely that the assassin thought this way. Kamala Harris, Old Joe Biden and their henchmen have spent years defaming Trump as a would-be dictator, a mortal threat to “our democracy,” and an enemy of all that is good. Is it any wonder that all this is driving leftists, whose heads are already filled with lies and muddled thinking, to think that they’d be doing a great service to humanity by eliminating this supposedly evil man?
We may never get the full truth of what happened because the FBI says that it is “investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination” of Trump. That deeply corrupt and thoroughly politicized organization is as unlikely to tell us all the facts about this second assassination attempt as it is to come clean about the first. Trump was shot on July 13. Since then, remarkably little has come out about the first shooter, Thomas Crooks, or about why the Secret Service made such an unusual succession of mistakes that allowed Crooks to get off shots at Trump at close range, including one that grazed his ear and would have killed him if he hadn’t turned his head just a moment before.
The White House issued a statement expressing Harris’ patented joy over the fact that the man they have smeared relentlessly for eight years has survived yet another attempt on his life: “The President and Vice President have been briefed about the security incident at the Trump International Golf Course, where former President Trump was golfing. They are relieved to know that he is safe. They will be kept regularly updated by their team.”
Terrific. MSNBC, meanwhile, found the real culprit quickly after details of the second assassination attempt had been revealed: not Ryan Routh, but Donald J. Trump. One MSNBC ideologue asked another: “Do you expect there to be calls from within the Trump campaign to [tone it down]?” The other replied that she hoped Trump would make this new attempt on his life a “a unity-type” moment, but didn’t think he would do so. No one on MSNBC, of course, was saying that Kamala Harris should tone down the rhetoric and call for unity, or that the bogus criminal proceedings against Trump should be dropped, or that the Democrats should stop claiming that Trump was a mortal threat to America as a free society.
In other words, the people who have created the atmosphere in which people try to murder one of the presidential candidates every few weeks will once again not be called to account. And since nothing the left has thrown at Trump has stopped him yet, they’ll likely try to kill him again. We can all hope, for the sake of our republic, that the third time won’t be a charm.

Excellent coverage Robert !!!
Trump needs to be more careful, they will try again, and might be outside of the range Secret Service can cover.

Check out ‘Bob Dylan’s Blues’ on Youtube.
On the internet is a photo of Syd leaning against his 59 Pontiac Parisienne, taken in 69. He’s probably holding a box of matches, but it’s not clear enough. He holds it like a cell phone. So I tell people Syd Barrett invented the cell phone, 1969. Some get a laugh, some others believe me.

What about the democrats inciting their mentally deranged acolytes to violence? No action(s) against them? Why?
Typical republican response. Do nothing, say nothing and be dignified and tolerate the democrats BS and violence.
David Ray says
You just described the soft mindset of Bush43 pretty good.
Clinton assholes trashed the White House on their way out & Bush covered for ’em. (“They may have played a prank or two”)
Rob A says
Exactly!! And it was Bush who first brought in Somalis to this country. And he loved illegal aliens from south of the border. That and the actions (e.g., war profits, padding the bank accounts of Wall Street bankers, etc.) of his neocon and RINO cronies is what drove me out of the republican party.
I’ll rejoin the republican party sometime in the next 200 years. Democrats? They can all eat sh*t, pound sand up their stupid wazoos and drop dead for all I care. Other than that, I have nothing against them…!
Gail Whitman says
THAT is precisely what I despise about being a Republican!!!
We are ever so “civilized”. So much so, that we will allow the Democrat thugs to run roughshod over us! We have been allowing it for DECADES.!! THAT’S precisely why our country is in danger of disappearing! (The country we’ve always KNOWN, that is).
It is sad. But it is a fact. Republicans, as a whole, have ZERO guts when it comes to saying “enough is ENOUGH”! One of these fine years, we may develop those guts, but, sadly, it will be too late, I’m afraid.
Tragic.
Jeff Bargholz says
Those Dirtbagocrats will keep trying to murder Trump until they likely succeed.
I wish somebody would shoot Biden and Harris. although Biden wouldn’t even know what hit him, he’s so senile. Harris would probably try to fornicate the bullet, that whore.
“A white dude for Harris.” Ryan Routh. what a freak. Just look at him. He traveled all the way from Hawaii to shoot at Trump. That’s how psychotic leftists are. A Dirtbagocrat donor. He probably eats cats, Haitian style.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Yeah, he’s nuts. Did you notice he used an AK-47? Hopelessly inaccurate as a sniper rifle.
Tionico says
Yup. A thousand yards/metres is a long ways, but easily attainable by a srilled rifleman and decent equipment. And no, GunBanners, an AR platform rifle will NOT be effective at that sort of range. And even if someone gets the proper equipment, how mnay are skilled to be accurate at such distances? VERY FEW but it is doable. nd relibly so by those who work hard at it.
I know one man who worked hard and consistently to get to 800 metres with reliability. Took hil well above a year. He then tried to get out to a thousand metres… after another year hewas hi and miss, bu close. How much money went down his barrel in smoke I do not know, and rather suspect he would rather not know either. After a year of not firing that rifle he is happy to reach five hundred yards now.
Roark says
Lock them up for incitement. For years the DemoNazi Party has been flagrantly inciting violence against Americans and President Trump and the Supreme Court Justices.
Enforce the laws!
18 U.S. Code § 373 – Solicitation to commit a crime of violence:
(a) Whoever, with intent that another person engage in conduct constituting a felony that has as an element the use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force against property or against the person of another in violation of the laws of the United States, and under circumstances strongly corroborative of that intent, solicits, commands, induces, or otherwise endeavors to persuade such other person to engage in such conduct, shall be imprisoned not more than one-half the maximum term of imprisonment or (notwithstanding section 3571) fined not more than one-half of the maximum fine prescribed for the punishment of the crime solicited, or both; or if the crime solicited is punishable by life imprisonment or death, shall be imprisoned for not more than twenty years.
LC says
Wasn’t it the obamessiah who said something like
If they bring a knife, you bring a gun
But that probably can’t be incitement based on who said it.
Based on the prodding by politicians with a D after their names and the fake news, a Berniebot was motivated to shoot up a softball practice of politicians with an R after their names. Maybe Steve Scalise remembers that.
Steve Chavez says
IS HE IN ANY COMMUNIST FRONT? WHO BRAINWASHED THIS MAN?

Today’s very radical Communist groups that organize the protests: A.N.S.W.E.R; The Party for Socialism and Liberation; The Revolutionary Communist Party; The Democratic Socialists of America; The Communist Party USA… and their thousands of fronts.
These are the groups that incite hatred, even Sedition and Insurrection. Their goal is the downfall of the United States!

Tionico says
Maybe not….. seems the right folks were there, and as opposed to the recent similar attempt, DID something to STOP it instead if peeing their pants and waiting for the perp to fire and then responding appropriately… AFTER seven rounds went downrange in Trump’s direction. And our “trusy” SS guys refused to fire until AFTER the local copper fired first, hitting the chump’s rifle stock. THEN the SS guy “did his duty”.
They had known of the perp’s presence and obvious intent for an hour or more. WHY did they not ACT until after shots went downrange toward their PROTECTEE? They had been IN position and identified the threat at least twenty minutes before their patsy fired his four rounds.

Yes, and except for JFK, all were Republicans, which shows clearly that violence, today more than ever, is on the side of the so-called ‘Democrats’.

The Republicans of JFK’s day were far closer to today’s Dems than most would want to accept. Don’t forget, the guy who arranged to take him our was of his same party. His antics over the next couple decades were something to behold……
MARYLOU LEEMAN says

David Ray says
I keep being told we’re the salivating, knuckle-draggers ready to erupt into violence.
Yet, it’s leftist democrats that consistently keep doing it.
¹ Bernie Sanders supporter, Hodgkinson specifically targeted Republican congressmen and shot them.
² Supreme Court Judge Kavanaugh was targeted.
³ Republican nominated Supreme Court justices had their homes protested.
⁴ A leftist mob attacked the Supreme Court building after low-life weasel Senator Chucky Schumer incited them with “you will reap the whirlwind!” (Fortunately the DC cops didn’t open the doors like they did on Jan 6th.)
⁵ Leftist pricks have attacked MAGA supporters so often, that it’s futile to list ’em here. (One incident targeted Ted Cruz.)
⁶ Leftist mobs have routinely shown up at people’s homes. (They’re more than welcome to try that crap on mine.)
⁷ Leftist pricks have now made 2 attempts on Trump (1st attempt aided & abetted by SS and FBI.)
⁸ BLM & AntiFa riots & killings have been so ubiquitous that listing them here would take hours. Two of note: the siege of the White House (including arson on the historic Saint John church), and the attempt to burn down the Hatfield Courthouse with people barred inside.
⁹ Lootings beyond counting.
I once recognized a Tea Party gathering on April 15th by the courteous & calm demeanor of the participants. The place was left cleaner than it was before the rally.
I could always recognize where an OWS event had taken place. A hazmat team would be needed to clean up afterwards.
Rob A says
When our side does erupt into violence, it will be for righteous, compelling and justifiable reasons. If left unchecked, one of these days left is gonna go too far. When that day comes, a lot of them are going to be forcibly rendered dirt temperature. The retribution/bloodletting
will not cease until the left’s numbers are markedly reduced.
Personally, I would say get rid of them all and be done with them. My reasons? Simple. The left has become increasingly resistant to logic and reason. If and when logic and reason fails, it becomes necessary and justifiable to resort to lethal violence and mayhem to impose logic & reason upon them to favorably conclude the matter.
Semaphore says
I unfortunately agree. The problem is that violence is just what our masters want. The left and right are so far apart that comprimise becomes impossible, and the result (I fear) will be beyond social unrest all the way to civil war. Then comes the state-of-emergency martial law, and our constitutiom and bill of rights become a$$-wipe. Can there be an alternative?
Rob A says
Semaphore:
Are you suggesting that we acquiesce to the left and cower in fear and just accept things the way they are? If true, then you have already mentally surrendered to the left. Most of us here in this forum reject that mentality.
General George Patton once said:
“The time to take counsel of your fears is before you make an important battle decision. That’s the time to listen to every fear you can imagine! When you have collected all the facts and fears and made your decision, turn off all your fears and go ahead!”
We’ve taken counsel of our fears and must now make a decision.
Patton also said:
“The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.”
That saying is applicable here in that we should not allow the left to impose their Marxist agenda upon us. As Americans, we have a right and a duty to forcibly impose our American agenda (the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights) upon them
There’s only one way to deal with the left: you make them see the light or feel the pain. There can be no other way. It’s that simple.
Semaphore says
I’m not suggesting we acquiesce to anything. I’m merely expressing a very real fear. I for one will never accept things the way they are, which is why I regularly contribute to boards like this. Besides, I’ve been making preps I won’t go into since before the pandemic. However, history has many good lessons for cultures like ours that have redefined their morality into a vague blur and reduced their currencies to empty promises. Our national government has become a puppet show whose strings are pulled by corporate overlords and international bankers while we are facing a choice this November between a man they keep trying to kill and a woman who policies are as vague as a used blotter. No, I haven’t acquiesced and I refuse to. But I am well aware of the gravety of our situation.
Tionico says
Remember the old schoolyard bullies, picking on and tormenting the “normal kids”? Those bullies would huff and roar and attack, and NO ONE had the stones to deal with him appropriately… until one fine day they pick on the wrong kid.. who absolutely toasts the bully, humiliating him in front of half the school.
Former Mr. Bully then becomes the nicest most friendly kid around… or leaves and transfers to a different =school. Either way, problem solved.
Gail Whitman says

Rob A says
Until proven otherwise, my default position on the matter is that both party establishments, the deep state and the MSM all want Trump dead!
The notion of making America great again rankles them to no end because deep down inside, they don’t give a flying f**k about America and think that Americans who honestly love this country and respect the US Constitution are a bunch of gun loving dimwitted boobs.

It looks from several pics that Trump is not wearing armor. And it’s obvious that Iran, the Kemala campaign, DNC, or the FBI/CIA are hiring patsies who can’t shoot. It’s obvious they have people stalking him.
And what’s with the AK….the platform of terrorists. Not exactly the most accurate rifle. At 500 yds, any .30 cal or 6.5 rifle is way more suited for the task. But they do cost more.
Trump should always be surrounded by the Secret Service even when he is on the Green. It’s only 52 days until the election. Maybe he should forgo playing golf for a few weeks. We cannot afford to lose this man
Tionico says
I bought an ex military 6.5 Swede Mauser in beautiful condition matching numbers for $200 at a gun show not that long ago. Those are spot oin at 500 yards. A WW1 vintage 1903 Springfield firing the .30 cal carridge for which it was designed can be, in skilled hands, spot on out to a thousand yards..and I watched one hit a target the size of a steamer trunk.. at a mile and a quarter, fired from offhand with only a standard GI sling for support. Drop into prone and do it again, anyone within that range would be gone. .
Intrepid says
Very cool. I bought a Swede Mauser when I lived in LA at the last gun store in LA. That round in very accurate, plus I reload for it so I can build custom rounds. Enjoy the Swede.
I was at the Ventura gun show many years ago and acquired the Springfield Model 1903 03A3 but the serial number indicates it was used in early WWII. I have to be careful not to let it hit my forehead if I’m wearing a cap. I also reload for that as well. It likes 178 gr bullets.
A couple of years a go I bought a sporterized K98 Mauser. It’s fitted for a scope. and I can see the original swastika stamps on the barrel. There is a website called Liberty Gun Collectors that has original K98 hardware so I’m going to take the stock off, and buy the original wood, sand it down and put it on the rifle. Should be nice when I’m done. Ironically it feels exactly like the Swede Mauser re: recoil.
What blew me away is how the prices have skyrocketed in the last few years. you were lucky get yours @ $200. Mine cost $400

enough of the demonizing Robert. “The left” — you have no idea who and why either of these men did what they did yet you are prepared to polarize and enflame like so many writers on this site. I have yet to hear a single major Democrat suggest that violence is acceptable — unless you count Trump as a democrat — which I do because his policies are straight up old left. And yet you will not ever acknowledge the role Trump has played in enflaming and polarizing our nation or in igniting and ignoring a riot that led to several deaths and threats against our sitting legislature and Vice President.

Why is this 2nd assassination attempt surprising?
President Trump not only has to “watch his back with Iran” (who has put a bounty on him), but also with the scatter-brained idiots in our country who have been brainwashed by the Democratic Party-a nauseating oxymoron if I ever heard one- since 2016 and who has called Trump a fascist and an existential danger to our democracy.
In effect, these Democratic politicians and other left-wing nuts are instigating an assassination of a political figure, and doing it without illegally doing it.
Now we have to deal with institutions (like the FBI, Secret Service and Homeland Security) that are suppose to guard and protect the Democratic Party’s competition in the upcoming election.
Unfortunately, these so-called swamp denizens and supposedly guardians of our liberty are either keystone kops in the making or are actually conscious saboteurs of the only person (in my opinion) who can swing our country to democracy and fair play again.
There have been two assassination attempts in 2 months.
When will this country take notice that there will most likely be-God forbid-more?
And if there is no quick and certain consequences to the assassinators, then as far as I’m concerned not only will President Trump be assassinated, but this country will be too.

We hope the President hires his own security that he trusts. Its clear that there are many factions that want to prevent him from becoming President again. Questions about this Routh finding out which Golf course Trump would be at. Routh should have been on the FBIs radar list.
Dave F. says
Leftists must be overjoyed by noting how often conservative commentators, blogists, journalists etc. routinely adopt their languaging techniques to control the narrative and emotion. Several commentors above refer to the “Democratic” party and there are any number of other instances where the adjective “Democratic” is misused, instead of the correct usage of a noun in those cases – DEMOCRAT, NOT Democratic. You think it’s just silly semantics? Wrong! It controls how we perceive and think of them, and Democrats are MANY things, but “democratic” is not among those things. To wit – the coup against Biden and installation of an incompetent stooge to replace him on the ballot (as but one of literally thousands of examples). And I was also surprised to see a brilliant writer like Robert Spencer fall into their trap and refer to the would-be assassin’s AK-47 weapon as an “assault rifle.” Unless it was capable of fully automatic fire (doubtful), then it is merely a semi-automatic weapon or rifle, and NOT one of those really scary sounding/looking “assault rifles” we hear about all of the time and yet no one seems to be able to define exactly what an “assault rifle” is.
TRex says
Agreed. The terms being misused are important. I would posit the term “democracy”, always used by the left isn’t the “democracy” of the dictionary. It’s more in line with the type of “democracy” you find in nations with the name of “The Peoples Democratic…” whatever. The only thing that makes them “democratic” is they have elections even though they are pre-determined and mean nothing. It’s not difficult to imagine a “Democratic States of North America” given how the Democrats have been honing their skills in election theft. To paraphrase a line from The Princess Bride put to a Democrat: ‘this word democracy, I don’t think it means what you think it means.’
Same goes for “assault rifle”. It’s just another perversion of terms to advance an agenda and, for this one, to invoke fear. To a Democrat, the .22 rifle I had when I was 13 is an “assault rifle” but It couldn’t “assault” anything unless I wanted it to. “Assaults” need an assailant. Without one they are just a thing among the billions of other things that exist.

Asking any US Government security agency to investigate who’s really behind the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump is the equivalent of asking Count Dracula to investigate who’s behind “sucking off” the collection of a Red Cross blood drive.

The coming 4th, 3rd and this 2nd attempt are designed to distract from 1st attempt and the coming 2024 election fraud.
Move along, move along.

It wouldn’t surprise me if we get our own Jack Ruby in this case.

The left will not stop until Trump is gone, the neocons are in control. They need a war, America is broke. It’s over, China will be the new super power come 2032

Reminded me of some of the EARLIER Dr. Who doctors, but older.

If they don’t stop Trump then they will start ww3
