The son of Ryan Wesley Routh, the man named as the suspect in a possible assassination attempt near Donald Trump's Florida golf club on Sunday, has said his father is not a violent person and did not even believe him to own a gun.
Routh's son, Oran Routh, reached by DailyMail.com shortly after Sunday's shooting, said this was the first he'd heard of the alleged assassination attempt.
'This was the first I heard about it,' the 35-year-old exclusively told DailyMail.com. 'Was my father shot or injured?'
He said his father hates Trump as 'every reasonable person does.
‘I don't like Trump either,’ the son added.
But he said his dad is not a violent person and couldn't believe his father would target the president.
'He's my dad and all he's had is couple traffic tickets, as far as I know,' the son said. 'That's crazy. I know my dad and love my dad, but that's nothing like him.'
The former president was rushed to safety on Sunday after multiple shots were fired in his vicinity while he was playing golf at his club in West Palm Beach.
Routh said his father, who had no military experience, said he had traveled to Ukraine following Russia’s 2022 invasion to help volunteer and provide aid to those affected.
Routh moved to Hawaii a few years back and was living with his longtime girlfriend. He said he didn't know his father was even in Florida.
'He said he was at the beach, but I thought that meant the outer banks in Hawaii,' he said. 'I didn't ask him for more information because we've had a falling out. We've grown apart.'

You clearly don't know him as well as you think you do.
Insanity
.
Peter Strzok sought out a member of Pence’s SS detail to help them get info / access / and recordings of Trump.
Secret Service were fixers for Hunter and Ashley Biden.
Seems like everyone that hates him is pro Palestinian, gay, proabortion and antichristian.
He's been conditioned to hate, just like all the mind-numbed sheep under the daily spell of the MSM. He's conditioned that he's among "all reasonable people"; hating Trump is the norm. Yet they tell US to tone down the rhetoric (and be good little lambs). Totally blind to their own malady, their own duplicity.
And here he is making an unreasonable statement! The boy is in denial.
It was an SKS, and I believe he’s a felon. Might have had to settle for what he could buy illegally.
When you hear thinking like that, you realize that there no longer exists a consensus of commonly held decent values to unite Americans. What decent, rational person would wany anything to do with such people. Unfortunately they are very numerous.
I don’t blame you in the slightest, Onan. But why don’t you keep your stupid mouth shut. Obviously there’s a lot about your dad you don’t know
Never owned a gun?
I’m not sure Dad’s handlers would be happy with that claim.
How long is dad’s rap sheet? I have not seen it
Ryan Rough is known to have lived in North Carolina. Not too many Rouths in North Carolina. The son still lives there and appears to still be living with his mother. Works for Xerox customer service. Lots of family info not yet scrubbed.

Its got felonies. He pointed a gun at someone during an arrest, I believe.
He was found to have an (illegal) machine gun.
He was arrested following a three-hour standoff with law enforcement.
Looks like Probation no matter what he did.
The Law was always very kind to him, slap on the wrist.
Lots of Civil actions against him probably due to his work. He was a roofer and then built sheds for the homeless.
8 years later and I’m still wondering why all the perplexing “hate” for the man.
Some say it is a cult of hate. I have never understood people who follow. Anyone.
Yes but how many others line him are out there?
“Court records show more than 100 criminal counts have been filed against Ryan Routh in North Carolina, most in Guilford County, which underlies Greensboro. The exact outcome of each case was not immediately clear Sunday.”

I doubt Routh brought the AK back with him from Hawaii so it was recently acquired. Or, in storage somewhere in FL or NC. How did he obtain it given he was a prohibited person.
If Ryan Routh loves Ukraine so much that he was recruiting fighters for them, why isn’t he or his son over there? Same for the Vindman brothers.
It’s all Trump’s fault.
Everything bad that happens is Trump’s fault.
We live in a bad universe due to Trump.
It’s far beyond a mere threat to democracy.
If he wins, say goodbye to existence itself.
