The suspect arrested Sunday in connection with an alleged assassination attempt on Donald Trump appears to have previously donated to Democrats while living in Hawaii, according to CNN.
Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, a former roofing contractor from Greensboro, North Carolina, allegedly pointed an AK-47-style weapon at the former president while he was golfing at Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach, News Nation reported. Routh appears to have donated over $100 to ActBlue, making contributions to the 2020 presidential campaigns of Tom Steyer, Andrew Yang, Tulsi Gabbard, and Beto O’Rourke, federal campaign finance records show.

In March, Routh voted in North Carolina’s Democratic primary, CNN reported, however he previously appeared to support Trump in 2016, and suggested he has since changed his opinion on the former president.
While you were my choice in 2106, I and the world hoped that president Trump would be different and better than the candidate, but we all were greatly disappointment and it seems you are getting worse and devolving,” he wrote in June 2020, according to CNN. “I will be glad when you gone.”
Routh tagged President Joe Biden’s Twitter account in April, saying his campaign should be “called something like KADAF. Keep America democratic and free,” while Trump’s campaign “should be MASA …make Americans slaves again master. DEMOCRACY is on the ballot and we cannot lose.”
Routh also traveled to Ukraine after Russia’s February 2022 invasion despite having no military training, according to the New York Times.
