So, here we go again.
The Democrats and their sycophantic media continue their extreme rhetoric against Donald Trump, a fanatic tries to assassinate him, and the left blames the former president for his extreme rhetoric.
Now, this:
The alleged would-be assassin arrested for targeting Donald Trump while he golfed at his private West Palm Beach golf club on Sunday may have been given inside information about the former president’s schedule, according to an ex-FBI official who called the possibility “scary.”
“Scary” doesn’t even begin to describe the implications.
Chris Swecker, a retired FBI assistant director, said law enforcement will have to establish how Ryan Wesley Routh appeared to know the exact details of when Trump was playing golf at the Florida resort.
The biggest question to answer is: ‘How did the would-be assassin know to be at that location at that time?
Swecker, who worked on criminal investigations, said there are only three possibilities.
There are only three possible answers: He guessed and got very lucky; he conducted surveillance on Trump and followed him to the golf course, or he had inside information about Trump’s schedule. The last answer is scary and has implications that another person was involved.
I don’t even want to go to the third possibility but as I’ve written, several times, nothing would surprise me in this hyper-divisive presidential election campaign. Zero.
Routh, who reportedly traveled from his home in Hawaii to attempt the assassination, was apprehended by Secret Services agents who were stationed a few holes ahead of Trump after they saw the muzzle of an AK-style rifle sticking through the shrubbery that lines the golf course. The alleged gunman also allegedly had set up a GoPro camera, apparently to record the planned assassination.
The question remains: How was Routh able to get an estimated 300-500 yards away from the former president? Particularly, in the aftermath of the first assassination attempt against Trump at a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. It boggles the mind.

Swecker, who retired from the FBI in 2006 and is now an attorney based in Charlotte, North Carolina, stressed that it’s time to tone down the left’s rhetoric against Trump and his followers.
There is little doubt that the demonization of Trump is resonating with the fringe elements who are mentally unstable and highly impressionable, so it may be time to tone it down a bit.
And the retired FBI official’s thoughts about Ryan Routh?
Swecker went bottom-line.
We know this suspect has posted about Trump being a danger to democracy and he has been active on some strange quests: visiting Ukraine to round up Afghan fighters so motive is coming into focus—he is a wing nut who dislikes authority, based on his arrest record for resisting arrest in a two-hour standoff.
Yet, from Kamala Harris to Joe Biden to Democrat lawmakers to the hopelessly biased media, they continue to call Trump “Hitler” every ten minutes (hyperbole on my part, of course), warning that democracy in America will end if he wins the election, with some even claiming that if Trump does win, it will be the last presidential election.
Yet, we’re supposed to be surprised when a mentally unstable crackpot who buys the left’s rhetoric decides to take matters into his own hands? Please.
