Trump’s would-be-assassin previously voted for him, believes Jews have no right to Holy Land

Today, 3:32 am

Donald Trump’s would-be-assassin Ryan Wesley Routh’s social media indicates that he voted for Trump in 2016 but was disappointed and later wrote he “will be glad when you [are] gone.”

Routh, 60, shared COVID-19 conspiracies and has a history of mental illness. He was also involved in efforts to send people to fight in Ukraine, according to his now-deleted Facebook page.

He also appears to believe Jews have no right to the Holy Land. In December 2023, he shared an ancient map about Jesus’ journeys and wrote: “I am unclear what part of Isreal [sic] the Jews owned based on this historic map; Judea perhaps? It seems to historically all be Palestinian.”

In fact, Judea was an ancient Jewish kingdom, while the name Palestine given to the land by the Romans is unconnected to modern day Palestinians.
