Recent discoveries of old tweets from Ryan Wesley Routh, the individual arrested for attempting to assassinate Donald Trump, have attracted attention.
On Sunday, the suspect discharged firearms near Trump at his West Palm Beach golf course, Florida.
Fortunately, Trump remained unharmed as the US Secret Service swiftly identified the shooter.
In a 2020 tweet, Routh expressed frustration, stating: “@realDonaldTrump While you were my choice in 2106, I and the world hoped that president Trump would be different and better than the candidate, but we all were greatly disappointed and it seems you are getting worse and devolving; are you retarded; I will be glad when you gone.”
The US Secret Service has confirmed that they are continuing their investigation into this incident.
It’s worth noting that a similar attack was attempted on the former President during his campaign events in Pennsylvania.
