Authorities have identified the man behind the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump as Ryan Wesley Routh, a 58-year-old with a disturbing obsession with Ukraine. Routh, who had expressed a willingness to die for Ukraine, had allegedly claimed multiple times that he was planning to travel to the war-torn country to fight on their behalf.
The attempted assassination unfolded at Trump’s West Palm Beach golf club on Sunday afternoon, just after 1:30 p.m. Trump was on the course enjoying a round of golf with real estate investor Steve Witkoff when shots rang out, sending shockwaves through the area. Details of the incident remain unclear, but reports suggest that Routh had an AK-47 rifle with a scope. It is still being determined whether Routh managed to fire his weapon or if the Secret Service opened fire first after identifying him as a threat.
