Donald Trump speaks out after apparent assassination attempt at Fla. golf course

(ASSOCIATED PRESS) Body camera footage posted on Facebook Monday shows the arrest of the man suspected in the apparent assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

The video posted by the Martin County Sheriff’s Office shows Ryan Routh walking backward with his hands over his head on the side of a road before being handcuffed and led away by law enforcement.

According to authorities, Routh on Sunday afternoon pointed a rifle with a scope into former President Trump’s golf club and then fled after Secret Service agents shot at him.

No injuries were reported.

According to the federal prosecutors' complaint, cell phone records show that Routh was in the area of the golf course tree line for about 12 hours, from approximately 1:59 a.m. until 1:31 p.m. on Sunday.

He was stopped about 45 minutes after he fled the golf course, court documents said.

Clickbait. Zero footage of Trump speaking.

I miss the part where trump "spoke out" as indicated by the thumbnail

[homiedclown]

I must be going deaf, cause I didn’t hear Trump speaking out

[beefcakesensei]

"apparent assassination attempt" all you guys do is gaslight

[joshsmith]

Donald Trump speaks out but for some reason they won't show the footage because they're a horrible news agency.

[leek]

They can prevent a dude concealed by bushes and a fence from getting a shot off, but not a clear threat on a roof less far away

[snoopy]

Misleading headline. Trump doesn’t speak.

[haydenschaap]

“Speaks out” then never shows a word of President Trump’s “speaking out.” Impressive how stupid these people think we are

Off topic:

Everyone that donated to the Harris Walz campaign should file with the DOJ Civil Rights Division.

I filed a report of voter intimidation and received a case number, but I don’t think 1 complaint alone will get this done.

Since trump threatened retaliation prison sentences for donors, and donors all intend to vote, then the threat to donors is a threat to voters.

If everyone filed with the DOJ Civil Rights Div. - perhaps we could get trump back in court for voter intimidation, and actually land trump in jail.

Dump trump.

I don’t believe this media…..👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

He did not fire a shot at any of our agents, that’s who they’re worried about.

To state the “FBIs claims it was an assassination attempt” infers the FBI is just another news source that could be inaccurate. Don’t sugar coat what happened. The FBI didn’t just claim there was an assassination attempt, there objectively was one.

[glenscannell]

Shot fired in the direction of a gun barrel? Then perp got away? How stupid do you think we are?

This video has been reported and is in the process of being taken down for false information

[NoFeArChiC]

"Apparent" ... Are you kidding me? The "news" is so disgusting.

[Travelwithus.]

@13WMAZ please stop spreading false information he was not charged with ONE assassination charge.

[southern_merican]

bs. you dont shoot into an unknown area without confirming the threat. smh. this is ALL fake yall

[CarpenterHunts]

My favorite part of the video was when he spoke out. I don't think anyone has ever spoken out better than he did in this video.

[shadetree]

He said "he didn't fire or get off any shots at our agent"... That's not the biggest elephant in the room attm sir.
