Proud Democrat Ryan Routh is unanimously convinced by a jury of his peers on all 12 counts of left-wing extremism. During his trial he chose to represent himself, and as expected of a left-wing extremist, his defense was based on comparing trump to Hitler and complaining about Russia invading Ukraine.

Man found guilty of assassination attempt against Trump at Florida golf club

Ryan Routh, the man accused of plotting to kill President Trump as he golfed in south Florida last year, was found guilty Tuesday following a trial where he mounted his own defense.

A jury of 12 Floridians convicted Routh on all five counts he faced in federal court, including attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, a charge that carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.

The guilty verdict comes at a moment of renewed national concern about political violence in the wake of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s fatal shooting earlier this month.

Federal prosecutors said Routh spent weeks planning to kill Trump before pushing the muzzle of a rifle through the perimeter of his West Palm Beach golf course last year, near the sixth hole.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Browne urged the jury to use “common sense” in its deliberations during the government’s closing arguments Tuesday, according to The Hill’s sister network NewsNation, contending that the fact Routh ultimately never fired a shot shouldn’t mean he’s let off the hook.

“If the evidence in this case has shown one thing and one thing only it’s that Ryan Wesley Routh wanted Donald Trump dead,” Browne said.

The government questioned 38 witnesses over seven days, while Routh called just three witnesses in three hours, a firearms expert and two character witnesses. He did not take the stand himself.
