Alleged would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh rages about ‘two-party system,’ name-drops Thomas Crooks in ranting jailhouse letter

Ryan Routh, who is charged in the second assassinate attempt of Donald Trump, tied himself to the President-elect’s other would-be assassin, Thomas Crooks, in a bizarre letter from jail — in which he also ranted about the “two-party system.”

Routh 58, sent the letter to Politico reporter Ankush Khardori from a federal detention center in Miami where he is awaiting trial after he allegedly tried to take out Trump at his Florida golf course earlier this year.

In the four page letter, in which Routh refers to himself several times as the “Alleged Trump shooter,” he railed against the US’s two-party system and emphasized that he has no affiliation to the Democratic party — despite a clear contempt for Trump, whom he called a “dictator.”

At one point in the letter, Routh links himself to Crooks — who nicked Trump in the ear with a sniper fire in July while he was speaking at a campaign event in Pennsylvania before he was immediately shot dead by Secret Service agents.

Routh, who pleaded not guilty in his own alleged assassination attempt months later, described them both as being “ready to die for freedom and democracy.”

In the letter, which was written before the election, Routh wrote that if Trump were to win the election, the country must “remove the power of our military by the President and place it with Congress before January.”

That's a great idea. Think about it.

Given bidens doj is refusing to cooperate with the state of Florida on this investigation (smacking of a coverup), I hope this guy doesn’t get Epstiened before DJT takes office.

There has been a total news blackout about the attempted murders. The media want us to forget about it and not investigate it to find out who was really behind it.

(Iran, with the help of a few democrats)

Agreed. The media went on and on and on about Travon, Brown, and Floyd like they were horrible "systemic" atrocities. All of them were thugs but the media made them out to be saints who should be immortalized. And the media has spent practically no time on Trump surviving two assassination attempts.

They need to treat this azho the way they do J6ers. Lock him up for years, not days. Attempting to murder the POTUS or former POTUS for political reasons would count as a friggin’ “insurrection” in my book.
