Former US President Donald Trumpescaped from one more attempted murder against him, as the 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Ruth has been identified and is in custody after he was spotted with an AK-47 just a few hundred yards from the Republican candidate while he was playing golf at his club in West Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday.

This is the second time in two months that a gunman has tried to kill their 45th president USA, as it is recalled that on July 13, Trump was wounded in the ear by the gunfire of 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks.

Specifically, law enforcement officials said at a news conference that they arrested a suspect who was spotted by US Secret Service agents with an AK-47 assault rifle outside the Trump National Golf Course.

As characteristically reported from Washington o Michalis Ignatiou on his television , “America is under attack.” It is now noticeable to the naked eye that the country is a divided superpower, as now, in addition to the “sprayed extreme right”, it seems that it now also has a “sprayed extreme left”, two opposite poles full of hatred and fanaticism.

It is logical that the Authorities have been put on “red” alert, as the best and most efficient team of the FBI has taken over the baton in the investigations, which is now openly talking about “domestic terrorism”. It is recalled, after all, that the corresponding Secret Service investigation into the murderous attack on Donald Trump’s life in Pennsylvania remains “top secret”. In any case, it also remains unknown whether the would-be killers were actually operating alone or if they had accomplices.

Who Is Ryan Wesley Ruth Who Tried To Shoot Trump While Playing Golf

According to relevant sources, it is about the 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Ruth. According to his Linkedin profile, he studied at Agricultural and Technical State University in North Carolina and moved to Hawaii in 2018. On Linkedin, he describes himself as a “mechanical mind” who enjoys “ideas, inventions and creative projects with an artistic bent.” Although he hasn’t posted on X in the last year, he has often criticized politicians like Donald Trump and Joe Biden as well as artists like Bruno Mars.

In June 2020, he posted on X calling on then-President Trump to win re-election by issuing an executive order directing the Department of Justice to prosecute police misconduct.

That year, she also posted in support of the Democratic presidential campaign of then-U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, who has since shifted her support to Trump.

However, in recent years, his posts have appeared to express frustration with Trump and his support for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

In July, after the assassination attempt on Trump in Pennsylvania, Ruth urged Biden and Harris to visit the shooting victims in hospital and attend the funeral of a firefighter killed at the rally.

Voter registration records show he registered as an unincorporated voter in North Carolina in 2012, and most recently voted in person during the state’s March 2024 Democratic primary.

Ruth, who says he is a staunch supporter of Ukraine, also made 19 small donations totaling $140 since 2019 using his Hawaii address to ActBlue, a political action committee that supports Democratic candidates, according to federal campaign finance records.

New data in the already unpredictable election campaign

The alleged attempt puts a new spin on an already unpredictable campaign: within weeks, the Republican candidate narrowly escaped his first assassination attempt, then the Democratic incumbent Joe Biden abandoned his bid for re-election and was hastily replaced by his vice president Kamala Harris.

Joe Biden said he was “relieved” that his opponent was “safe” and praised the “work of the Secret Service” and other law enforcement agencies. In a press release released by his White House staff, Biden insisted that “political violence, or any form of violence, has no place in our country.”

“Happy” that Mr. Trump is safe, Kamala Harris also said, stressing in turn through X that “violence has no place in America.”
