Criticism of ‘Iran nuclear deal withdrawal – 1.6 parliamentary riot’
Turning from Trump supporter to… “idiot, moron”
Asking Rodman for help in ‘easing sanctions on North Korea’
It has been revealed that Ryan Wesley Routh (58), a suspect in the attempted assassination of former US President Donald Trump, included in a book published last year a urging Iran to assassinate former President Trump.
According to the Associated Press on the 17th (local time), it was confirmed that Rouse wrote in his self-published book “Ukraine’s Unwinnable War” last year that “Assassinating Trump is your freedom” toward Iran. Rouse criticized the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot and the unilateral withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) as “a huge mistake” and described former President Trump as “an idiot, an idiot.”
“I feel a part of the responsibility for the fact that the kid we elected as our next president ended up being a dud,” Routh wrote, adding that he voted for Trump.
He has politically swayed both the left and the right, supporting former President Trump, Nikki Haley, Tulsi Gabbard, and Bernie Sanders. He registered as an independent voter in North Carolina in 2012 and most recently voted in the state’s Democratic primary in March of this year. He has also donated $140 to ActBlue, a Democratic fundraising platform, 19 times since 2019.
In June 2020, after the death of George Floyd, he said that then-President Trump would be re-elected if he issued an executive order to prosecute police misconduct, but more recently, he has shown a negative stance toward former President Trump and expressed support for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate. In April, he posted on social media in support of President Biden, saying, “Democracy is on the ballot and we cannot lose.”
In July, after an assassination attempt on former President Trump in Pennsylvania, Rouse posted a message urging Biden and Vice President Harris to visit those injured in the shooting and attend the funeral of a dead firefighter. “Trump will do nothing for them,” Rouse wrote.
“I refuse to be categorized,” Rouse wrote in the book. “I’m so sick of people asking me if I’m a Democrat or a Republican.” She also wrote, “It seems like all the problems in the world revolve around men with enormous insecurities and childish intelligence and behavior,” and “The world would be a better place if women led.”
He also frequently posted on social media about Ukraine and other wars. He also ran a website to recruit and raise money for volunteers to fight for Ukraine.
“This is about good and evil,” Rouss said in a video circulated online, and tweeted that he would “fight and die for Ukraine.” He also attended a small protest in Kiev’s Independence Square in April 2022, two months after Russia invaded Ukraine. He carried a placard that read: “We can no longer tolerate 50 more years of corruption and evil. Let’s end Russia for our children.” That same day, he also visited a makeshift memorial to “foreigners killed by (Russian President Vladimir) Putin.”
But the Ukrainian side says he has never served or worked with the military. Oleksandr Shakhuri, head of the Foreign Affairs Coordination Department of the Ukrainian Ground Forces Command, told AP that Rouss had been in regular contact with “ridiculous ideas,” some might call them “delusions of grandeur.”
Rouse stood outside the Capitol and complained that Ukraine was no longer accepting the Afghan special forces he was trying to recruit. “They’re afraid that anyone and everyone is a Russian spy,” he said in a media interview last year. Earlier this year, he tweeted that Bruno Mars and Dave Matthews should organize a “We Are the World”-style campaign for Ukraine. “We need an emotional tribute song for Ukraine,” he said.
Along with this, Routh asked former basketball star Dennis Rodman via Twitter to help lift sanctions on North Korea in order to ease tensions with the country. In another tweet, he invited 12 Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters to stay at his home in Hawaii to escape China’s crackdown.
