This imbecile probably doesn’t realize that his actions have likely boosted Trump’s vote-count by at least a few-hundred thousand across the board. Possibly a lot more.

[TalBlack]

The test: If this guy turns up dead soon he was sent rather than acting entirely on his own.

[airborne]

He should be stripped of his US citizenship and sent to Ukraine for military training.

And get an RFID chip to make sure he doesn’t leave there!

Routh, who is reportedly a convicted felon with a lengthy criminal history

1) Has he ever served jail time? 2) Did the SS find ammo in or near the gun? 3) What did the GoPro footage reveal? It certainly wasn't there to film Trump at 300 yards, they don't have a zoom. It was there to film the perp. 4) Why was the perimeter not secured and why no dogs?

[kiryandil]

FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

[equaviator]

Maybe he’s looking to go to jail for the free sex change operation.

[farmguy]

Like she did for the antifa goons, kamala will raise his bond money. He’ll get out on bail, assume the identity of an illegal alien , and disappear never to be seen again.

[NonValueAdded]

just buffing up his insanity plea.

[Delta 21]

Are they gonna release him “OR”?

[alternatives?]

I bet his son is really proud of his dada. His dad told everyone he has to support his son even though the dad makes only $36,000 a year.

[alternatives?]

Maybe he was just out hunting dogs and cats.

[vivenne]

He is laughing b/c he thinks he is joking amongst friends. He thinks these “friends” will get him off since they all are on the same “team” ; )

The irony is that is party, the Democrat party, has to explain why one of their own did it. His party, the Democrat party, has to explain to Americans why they are the party of so called peaceful transition of power during an election. Something that they have been chanting for 3-4 years.

So the $64K question — if Trump is elected, will assassination attempts become a weekly occurrence or will the Democrats accept the results of the election peacefully?

[Vaduz]

One less democrat off the street is fine with me.

Better if it was the Biden crime family.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

He’s got nothing to fear from the American ‘just-us’ system.

President Reagan’s loony-toons would-be assassin is running around FREE now...and he actually SHOT the President and we almost lost President Reagan by a fraction of an inch; same with President in Exile Trump!

I have yet to see one commentator bring up Reagan’s attempted assassination. Has anyone? Or do we just scrub History and it starts again every morning?

This is SERIOUS, SERIOUS stuff for America! How I HATE the world Socialist Democrats are FORCING us to live in! *SPIT*

[fwdude]

He’ll be lionized by the entire left as a ‘true American.’

I’d be smiling, too.

Routh, who is reportedly a convicted felon with a lengthy criminal history, was charged with two counts: possessing a firearm while being a convicted felon, and possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number, CNN correspondent Dianne Gallagher reported.

Was the gun loaded?

[Churchillspirit]

Wonder what the chances are he gets bail?

[TigersEye]

Isn't that somewhat of a stumbling block to getting a passport and traveling abroad? Particularly to a war zone?

I have never had a passport or traveled abroad so I don't know.

[virgil]

Why is he not charged with attempting to kill someone?
