The alleged gunman who authorities said targeted former President Trump while he golfed in Florida Sunday afternoon previously declared on social media that “Democracy is on the ballot” this year, and “we cannot lose” — echoing the anti-Trump rhetoric used by Vice President Kamala Harris and President Biden.
Law enforcement sources identified the suspect as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58.
Routh, who has a lengthy criminal record from North Carolina, frequently posted about politics and exclusively donated to Democratic candidates and causes dating back to 2019.
He also bashed Trump in an April 22 post on X in which he declared, “DEMOCRACY is on the ballot and we cannot lose.”
He posted “Democracy is on the ballot” –well, he’s correct… but it’s his version (the communist-democratic-party that is) of ‘democracy.” And when the Communist-Democrats use the word democracy what they are really saying.. “Communist mob rule” –this is what they really mean.
You’re absolutely correct… However, the problem is, at least half the people in this country can’t discern the difference you and I delineate.
No, really, they’ve been indoctrinated to belief systems in their education, taught to regurgitate facts and study for a test. They were never actually educated and given critical thinking skills. Do not question what you are told, merely memorize and be prepared to repeat it when asked. So when one of the approved talking heads on the tee vee mashes up a jingoistic word-salad (as so many politicians do now), the sheeple step into line. Pavlovian conditioning makes it impossible for them to do anything else. Look at Desert Storm, GWOT, etc… How we’re the good guys for blowing up mud-huts in the desert is beyond me, but, ‘murica!
They are absolutely painting this as an existential problem for the nation, because to an extent it is. You get it: If they lose, the commies are afraid they’ll be lined up against the wall, which is exactly what’s going to happen to us if they win! So, they’re correct – it is an existential election. All the marbles, as the saying goes.
