I’ll say it again, pray for President Trump and America after this second assassination attempt at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. Praise God that President Trump is ok and the suspected shooter is in custody.
Law enforcement has identified Ryan Wesley Routh, 58 as the would-be assassin. He was approximately 300 to 500 yards away from President Trump , hiding in shrubbery with an scoped AK-47 style rifle, according to law enforcement officials.
Secret Service agents were one to two holes ahead of President Trump when they spotted the muzzle of the rifle protruding through a chainlink fence. Routh fled the scene after Secret Service opened fire. Cops found the rifle, two backpacks full of ceramic plating and a go-pro camera.
Palm Beach Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said a witness helped to ID Routh and his vehicle, “Fortunately, we were able to locate a witness that came to us and said, “Hey, I saw the guy running out of the bushes, he jumped into a black Nissan, and I took a picture of the vehicle and the tags, which was great.” Said the Secret Service agent who spotted this and opened fire did a “fantastic job.”
Martin County Sheriff’s office spotted Routh’s vehicle, detained him and then took him into custody. According to the Associated Press (AP) , Routh’s demeanor was calm and flat, with little emotion.
According to internet reports, Routh, a construction worker, said in a series of X posts that he fought in Ukraine in 2022. He also posted efforts to recruit soldiers to fight for Ukraine.
Obviously this story is developing.
What’s the reaction of the media and Democrats you ask?
MSNBC blames Trump’s “violent rhetoric” for stoking the attempt on his life. Rather than condemning the violence, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries wrote on X a diatribe about the defunct Project 2025 and the prospect of a national abortion ban .
He wrote:
And they accuse Republicans of extremist language.
Meanwhile, steel yourselves, it’s going to get crazier until November. The forces that want to stop Trump are desperate and any number of things could happen.
Let’s take a moment what’s to review the state of things: Two assassination attempts against President Trump , The threat of World War 3 with the Israeli -Hamas War and Russia -Ukraine War, (Monkeypox, Bird Flu and resurgent Covid ) pandemic fears, military- aged men from multiple countries entering through the southern border, dangerous rhetoric from Democrats and RINOs calling Trump a threat to democracy, cyber attacks, and the threat of economic collapse. All of this while we have a senile president , an incompetent vice president and the people wondering, who is running the country?
In a previous post, I called for all hands in prayer. I hope you are doing so and if not, I encourage you to start when you finish this post.
Please pray for God’s continued protection over President Trump and his family. Please pray for America that we would return to a fear of God and repent of the idols we have worshipped instead.
Ask Jesus for discernment to determine good from evil. Hate evil and pray for our enemies that they would know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Offer to the Lord all kinds of prayers including imprecatory ones if God places it on your heart.
I say also praise God for His revealing the evil ensconced in the levers of power and influence in America and the West. The beginning of their end is people becoming aware of what are facing. This is spiritual warfare which can only be fought ,through our prayers, by God.
Let us remember that God is control, and as Christians, He works all things for our greater good. What is meant for evil , He will use for good. May we rest in this confidence of His power, especially in these next few months and beyond.
