Trump slams Harris-Biden admin for ‘mishandling’ second assassination attempt: ‘Slap on the wrist’

Former President Donald Trump claimed Monday the Harris-Biden administration is “mishandling and downplaying” the second assassination attempt on his life this year.

Ryan Wesley Routh — the 58-year-old who is suspected of lying in wait for the 45th president on his Florida golf course — was ordered held without bond Monday by a federal judge in West Palm Beach.

Routh was initially charged with possessing a firearm despite being a convicted felon and possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number, though federal prosecutors signaled Monday that more serious charges were coming.

“BREAKING: The Kamala Harris/Joe Biden Department of Justice and FBI are mishandling and downplaying the second assassination attempt on my life since July. The charges brought against the maniac assassin are a slap on the wrist,” Trump wrote in a statement shortly after Routh was ordered to pretrial detention.

“It’s no wonder, since the DOJ and FBI have been coming after me nonstop with Weaponized Lawfare since I announced my first Historic Campaign for the Presidency.”

Investigators have said that Routh fled his makeshift sniper’s nest off the 6th hole of Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach — without getting a shot away at the 78-year-old Republican nominee — after a Secret Service agent on advance patrol spotted the barrel of Routh’s gun and fired at him.

Trump was also shot in the right ear during a July 13 campaign rally in Butler, Pa., by gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks. The 20-year-old was perched on a roof opposite of the outdoor rally stage and aimed for the former president, getting off eight shots before being killed by a Secret Service counter-sniper.

“From Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, Iran, Iran, Iran, Impeachment Hoax Number One, Impeachment Hoax Number Two, to the Lawless Documents Hoax brought after an Illegal and unConstitutional Raid of my home, on which I am suing the DOJ for their wrongful acts, to the January 6th Hoax in Washington, D.C. [sic], where the J6 Unselect Committee illegally deleted and destroyed all Documents, the Manhattan D.A.’s Zombie Case, the New York A.G. Scam, illegally Spying on my Campaign, to censoring the Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell, which was criminally led by the fake 51 Intelligence Officials who lied and claimed it was ‘Russian Interference and Disinformation,’ while the Laptop was, in fact, Hunter Biden – Not Russia, and exposed Crooked Joe and his family for their decades of grift – and many lawless, Radical attacks against their Political Opponent, ME,” the former president raged.

“The DOJ and FBI have a Conflict of Interest since they have been obsessed with ‘Getting Trump’ for so long. It’s very difficult to trust the Biden/Harris DOJ/FBI to investigate the assassination attempts, due to Election Interference and the FAKE CASES brought against me, including their control over local D.A.s and A.G.s,” Trump continued.

The 45th president also slammed FBI Director Christopher Wray for going before Congress and initially casting doubt on the fact that a bullet had hit Trump in Butler.

“What he said was disgraceful, especially since it was witnessed LIVE by millions of people, and he was forced to immediately retract,” Trump said of Wray.

The former president then praised Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for ordering an investigation of Routh’s assassination attempt.

“If the DOJ and FBI cannot do their job honestly and without bias, and hold the aspiring assassin responsible to the full extent of the Law, Governor Ron DeSantis and the State of Florida have already agreed to take the lead on the investigation and prosecution,” Trump wrote.

“Florida charges would be much more serious than the ones the FBI has announced. The TRUTH would be followed, wherever it leads. OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM IS CORRUPT AND DISCREDITED, especially as it pertains to the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. LET FLORIDA HANDLE THE CASE!”
