Trump’s would-be assassin has been identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58.

@zelensky_official I am an American coming to fight with you in Ukraine; I am flying into Krakow and will take any transport to Kyiv to meet you and fight to the death. We must get every civilian in the world to come and join the fight; I will be the example. Attack moscow now

Shots were fired at Trump’s golf club in West Palm Beach on Sunday afternoon at 1:30 pm as the former president was playing a round of golf with real estate investor Steve Witkoff.

It is unclear if Routh was able to fire his weapon (AK-47 with a scope) or if the Secret Service shot at him first after they identified him as a threat.

Officials have confirmed that the gunman, identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, targeted President Trump.

The FBI is calling Sunday’s shooting an attempted assassination.

Police also released photos of the sniper’s nest next to Trump’s golf course.

Ryan Wesley Routh left behind a Go-Pro, an AK-47 and two backpacks on the perimeter of Trump’s golf club.

Here’s what we know so far:

Ryan Wesley Routh pushed the muzzle of his rifle through the fence line at Trump’s golf course before Secret Service agents fired at him.

Law enforcement said the gunman was about 300 to 500 yards away from Trump. He was hiding in the shrubbery when he pointed his rifle with a scope through the fence.

According to law enforcement, Secret Service agents were one to two holes ahead of Trump when they spotted the muzzle of the rifle.

According to reporters for The AP, there are several areas around the perimeter of Trump’s golf course where golfers are visible from the fence line.

It appears the would-be assassin exploited a vulnerable part of the property’s perimeter.

Ryan Wesley Routh ran out of the bushes and escaped in a black vehicle but he was arrested in Martin County.

Law enforcement said charges against Ryan Wesley Routh are pending.

Breaking from
@KristenhCNN
and
@JohnMillerCNN
: “Officials believe the shots fired at Trump International Golf Club were intended for former President Donald Trump, according to sources familiar on the matter.

This is important if accurate.

Ryan Wesley Routh...

The sounding of the name seems similar to another assassin: John Wilkes Booth.

Just a coincidence.

Assuming these attempts don't take him out I think these attempts are only going to help Trump.

As much as I loathe Biden and Harris I don't want to see them shot. We can't have this be a "thing" that happens here. It can only go downwards for the country, and in so many ways.

Someone in Trump’s SS detail is giving out personal whereabouts of Trump. How did the shooter know Trump was golfing today. How did he know what areas were not protected by SS agents? Why don’t they have dogs or drones flying constantly by the hundreds when Trump is out there playing golf or his rallies or whatever places he goes to. Someone gave him a heads up. Someone in trump’s protection group is stabbing Trump in the back. There is a spy in the middle of his detail group! And now the FBI is in charge of the investigation? Consider it a closed case. There will be others and the DNC mediasnakes along with the evil DC swamp are blaming Trump and encouraging other snipers to arise. One way or the other someone is going to get lucky. Because as it is right now they’re pissed the shooter didn’t get to snuff out Trump. If Trump does not get additional protection on his own he’s gonna end up 6 feet under. I am disgusted with DeSantis not fully taking over this investigation and demanding that Trump gets more protection than these failed SS agents who are part of the DC swamp and are still doing the bidding for the DNC demonic evil from the pit of hell bastards. Someone in his camp is betraying him. I for one am infuriated to no end.
