"We May Never Know the Assassin's Motive," Vows Media That Filled Assassin With His Motive to Kill

The Bee:

The leftwing Kamala Harris bumper-sticker-supporter and frequent donor to Democrats through Act Blue has no known political affiliations, says the leftwing media that previously treated him as a sympathetic interview subject in its Ukraine propaganda pieces.

Ryan Wesley Routh portrayed himself online as a man who built housing for homeless people in Hawaii, tried to recruit fighters for Ukraine to defend itself against Russia, and described his support and then disdain for Donald Trump -- even urging Iran to kill him.

"You are free to assassinate Trump," Routh wrote of Iran in an apparently self-published book in 2023, "Ukraine's Unwinnable War," which described the former President as a "fool" and "buffoon" for both the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots and the "tremendous blunder" of leaving the Iran nuclear deal.

...

Three officials who identified Routh spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation and search for a motive.

How's the search for a motive going, AP?

Still inconclusive?

Through his voluminous online footprint, public records, news interviews and videos, a picture emerged of Routh as a man with a criminal past, plenty of outrage and shifting politics.

"Shifting politics."

...

Routh also made 19 small donations totaling $140 since 2019 to ActBlue, a political action committee that supports Democratic candidates, according to federal campaign finance records.

We may never know his political leanings, the media vowed.

The quest for a motive continues, fruitlessly.

Son of alleged would-be assassin Ryan Wesley Routh says his dad hates Trump like 'all reasonable people' but he's never owned a gun and wouldn't do anything bats*** crazy

The son of Ryan Wesley Routh, the man named as the suspect in a possible assassination attempt near Donald Trump's Florida golf club on Sunday, has said his father is not a violent person and did not even believe him to own a gun.

Routh's son, Oran Routh, reached by DailyMail.com shortly after Sunday's shooting, said this was the first he'd heard of the alleged assassination attempt.

'This was the first I heard about it,' the 35-year-old exclusively told DailyMail.com. 'Was my father shot or injured?'

He said his father hates Trump as 'every reasonable person does.

'I don't like Trump either,' the son added.

But he said his dad is not a violent person and couldn't believe his father would target the president.

Leftists never believe they inspire their own leftist assassins. Lefties are still claiming that the communist Lee Harvey Oswald was "inspired" by "dark right wing chatter" in Dallas of 1963.

Or at least that's what they claim.

I think they know damn well they're instigating their more deranged Paramilitaries into Direct Action. They just don't want to admit they're deliberately assassin-baiting.

This latest leftwing Democrat-Media Assassin was a Known Wolf who was very welcome inside the world of leftwing corporations.

Look violent rhetoric is wrong, and has no place.

But MAGA pretending they didn't light this fire is gaslighting to the 100th power. Since Trump showed up our politics has gone to crap.

Literally just accused a group of people of eating our pets.

So stop

When a Democrat is targeted, it's Republicans' fault for their violent rhetoric.

When a Republican is targeted, it's... also Republicans' fault? I mean, points for consistency, I guess.

A lot of these high-profile lefties are trying to establish a rule that one is allowed to agitate and agitate for assassination, without consequence.

I would remind high-profile, low-accomplishment pussies that this works both ways and they might not like living in the world they're creating.
