There Are Some Really Strange Things About the Second Trump Shooter

Matt Margolis-Opinion : Sep 16, 2024  PJ Media

...It gets weirder. Do you remember how the first Trump shooter, Thomas Crooks, appeared in a BlackRock commercial? Well, Routh is featured in a pro-Ukrainian commercial.

[PJMedia.com] On Sunday, for the second time in nine weeks, an attempt was made on Donald Trump's life. Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, armed with a scoped AR-15, aimed the rifle's muzzle through the fence of Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach, FL, while Trump was golfing. Secret Service agents foiled the plot when they spotted the rifle's barrel protruding from the shrubbery and immediately opened fire. Routh fled the scene, but local authorities quickly apprehended him before he could escape, reportedly without resisting. (Screengrab image: via 9News-Australia)

Since then, we've learned more about the shooter, and it turns out that Routh was hardly some random guy. In fact, the media have interviewed him several times in the past. Routh is obsessed with the war in Ukraine and spoke with the New York Times last year about his efforts to support Ukraine's war effort.

In a telephone interview with The New York Times in 2023, when Mr. Routh was in Washington, he spoke with a self-assuredness of a seasoned diplomat who thought his plans to support Ukraine's war effort were sure to succeed. But he appeared to have little patience for anyone who got in his way. When an American foreign fighter seemed to talk down to him in a Facebook message he shared with The New York Times, Mr. Routh said, "he needs to be shot."

In the interview, Mr. Routh said he was in Washington to meet with the US Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, known as the Helsinki Commission "for two hours" to help push for more support for Ukraine. The commission is led by members of Congress and staffed by congressional aides. It is influential on matters of democracy and security and has been vocal in supporting Ukraine.

Routh told the paper that he was recruiting former Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban, some of whom were living illegally in Pakistan and Iran, to fight in Ukraine. He suggested using corrupt channels in Pakistan to purchase passports for their relocation. While it's unclear if Routh succeeded in doing so, one former Afghan soldier confirmed he had been contacted and expressed interest in joining if it meant leaving Iran...
