5 things to know about Ryan Wesley Routh, suspect in 2nd Trump assassination attempt

1. He is a strong supporter of Ukraine in their war against Russia

Ryan Routh’s X account has been suspended but a screen recording of his profile, as well as a range of posts cited by USA Today, show that among several causes, including Black Lives Matter and Taiwanese sovereignty, he voiced strong support for Ukraine’s war against Russia.

"I am an American coming to fight with you in Ukraine; I am flying into Krakow and will take any transport to Kyiv to meet you and fight to the death,” Routh said in one tweet at President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's account on X. “We must get every civilian in the world to come and join the fight; I will be the example. Attack Moscow now."
