The last one was a Republican.

1. The last one was not a Republican

Records show Routh voted in the N.C. Democratic primary in March. He contributed over $100 to ActBlue.

Routh is on the North Carolina’s voter rolls as an unaffiliated voter.

He's nut job. Unfocused, easily distracted, seriously did not think through his actions.

2. He voted for Trump in 2016.

5. Doesn't make him a Republican

My Dad is a Republican, voted for Obama. Is he a Democrat? He then voted for Trump. But wait, he voted for a Democrat, that makes him a Democrat. One vote doesn't make you anything.

13. I didn't say that it did. I said he voted Trump in 2016. I didn't say that made him Republican or that he was one.

17. Hes for Haley and Verswami now sorry do know his name

So I think he's kind of like a scorned lover out for revenge doesn't really care about democrats

7. The last one was a Republican.

Thomas Matthew Crooks was a registered Republican.

Ryan Wesley Routh was Trump voter that was registered as unaffiliated and promoted a Haley/Ramaswamy "winning ticket" earlier this year.

3. He was most recently listed as "unaffiliated."

He voted for Trump in 2016, has donated small amounts to Act Blue, recently supported Ramaswamy and Haley but also once supported Bernie Sanders. He has been all over the place politically. Basically he's kind of a nutter, apparently motivated by his obsession with Ukraine. Check The Google.

11. Thank you

I don't consider him either Democrat or Republican. He's a nut job.

14. Best description of him. Nut job .

5 things to know about the apparent assassination attempt on Trump

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Former President Donald Trump wasn’t harmed in Sunday’s apparent assassination attempt as he golfed near his Florida club. But the second attack on his life in barely two months is likely to further unsettle an election cycle already marked by upheaval.

The man suspected in the incident, Ryan Wesley Routh, camped outside the golf course in West Palm Beach with food and a rifle for nearly 12 hours, according to court documents filed Monday. He is accused of lying in wait for the former president before a Secret Service agent opened fire, thwarting the potential attack.

Here are five things to know about what happened and where the investigation stands:

18. Calling this an "attack on his life" is a stretch.

The guy never even got a shot off. No attack took place.

8. Question: Routh claims he's lived in Hawaii since 2018. Then how did he vote in NC's Democratic primary?

9. Look at his criminal history

Clearly not someone who had any interest in following rules

[Kaleva]

16. Depends on where he claimed his home of record was

When I was in the service, my home of record was here in Michigan even though I resided in numerous places up and down the East Coast.

15. Neither one fits the profile that Trumpies would like to use to his advantage.

Both white males. One Republican, one right wing "unaffiliated." Neither an immigrant, or with an immigrant background. Both obviously gun nuts.
