Former President Donald Trump said Monday that the man who allegedly tried to assassinate him as he golfed Sunday was motivated by the “rhetoric” of President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
“He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it,” the Republican presidential nominee, 78, told Fox News.
“Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country — both from the inside and out.”
Trump cited suspect Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, using near-identical language to Biden and Harris about the ex-president posing a threat to American democracy if he retakes the White House.
Routh was discovered hiding in the bushes near Trump’s West Palm Beach, Fla., golf course as Trump played a round. Authorities discovered a tactical rifle, a scope and a GoPro camera.

The worst I had ever seen was when Pelosi tore up the State of The Union speech Trump delivered. That said more than words could. I will never forgive or forget that.
Absolutely. They should stop all of their hateful rhetoric.
He is 100% right.
The mess media are worse.
“He is 100 percent correct.”
Absolutely! But the leftist media will use this comment to say Trump is unhinged.
Merrick Garland and Alejandro Mayorkas call the actual shootings. Sleepy Joe and Kumalot are mere bystanders.
This is important. The media is telling Trump that he needs to tone down his rhetoric. The truth is the opposite. The Democrats and Media need to tone down their rhetoric. And Trump is saying so. Good on him.
failure of a free press has made madmen out of all leftists.
no one on the left can handle the truth anymore, no one on the left, knows what the truth is anymore.
God look over DJT
The mess media are worse.
“”””Routh was discovered hiding in the bushes near Trump’s West Palm Beach, Fla., golf course as Trump played a round. Authorities discovered a tactical rifle, a scope and a GoPro camera.””””
I am waiting for timelines regarding Routh’s movements.
1. When did he travel from Hawaii to Florida?
2. Where did he stay in Florida?
3. Is the Nissan SUV a rental car?
4. The Nissan SUV looks to be very new, so does it have GPS?
5. If the Nissan has GPS, then what were the routes taken by Routh? When and where?
6. When did Routh arrive at the golf course? How many times had he visited it?
7. Did Routh have a smartphone? What did the smartphone record as to his whereabouts?
Come on DeSantis, get on the local LEO’s and FBI’s butts and start demanding this information!!!!
The politicization of the law.
(Call it POLITICALIZATION of the law, not “weaponize” which the Left wants you to use to blur and obfuscate the meaning.)
If a Leftist speaker calls a Patriot official a terrorist, that’s OK but if a Patriot calls a Leftist official a terrorist that is “insurrection”.
Watched what the harpies would say on the View, they denied their proven hateful Trump rhetoric. Whoopi was silent the whole time.
President Trump IS being targeted by "democrats"
Trump is right the media keeps on blaming the gun NO ITS THEM this is what happens when they call trump hitler everyday people believe it .. id ask any media member to their face look in the camera and tell me honestly do you believe that Donald j trump is hitler and they would say no so why are you saying it .. well we want to win an election
i concur!
and peloso did a gelony with that rip.
Correct but not complete. Harris is directing these assassination attempts with the rest of the Democrat elites both elected and in the media. He also should make it clear that if he is assassinated he will not be the only leader assassinated and that the country is unlikely to avoid a civil war. (All because Democrats can’t be out of power for 4 years).
But there are a lot more Demonicrat politicians and DeepStaters who should also be charged.
How did he know of Trump’s itinerary and whereabouts at that day and time?
You mean they are using hateful rhetoric to blame Trump and Vance for hateful rhetoric?
Don't you just HATE hate? :-)
