My Opinion: Like JFK before him, DJT is a threat to the shadowy figures behind the scenes of "elected" government.
Threats to the deep state/globalists/uniparty/etc., elites are subject to being targeted by expendable losers programmed by the deep state to eliminate opposition.
I read most every book on the subject of the Kennedy assassination that was published up to 2000. One lingering take away was the odyssey of Lee Harvey Oswald, as chronicled by Philip H. Melanson in Spy Saga: Lee Harvey Oswald and U.S. Intelligence. In the Marines at Naval Air Facility Atsugi, Japan, LHO was taught Russian! It reads like Oswald was a low level operative being handled by spooks/FBI.
Unless proven otherwise, I believe that Thomas Matthew Crooks and Ryan Wesley Routh (plus Sirhan Sirhan) are also government assets unleashed when needed.

Crooks was more likely pretty much what he seems to have been, An unbalanced kid. He had had contact with FBI some months prior to his attempt at glory as had almost all or in fact all of the school shooters after Columbine. All it takes is some fatherly counseling and some hints like “that shooter last month will be remembered forever, he is famous!” Routh had lots of contacts with CIA.
