Ryan Routh wrote 2023 memoir advocating for killing Trump

Alleged would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh wrote 2023 memoir about how Ukraine must win ‘unwinnable war’ and advocating for killing Trump

Is it only me or the recent assassination attempts have some common themes as Ukraine, World Global Citizen utopia and hate for Trump?

While true, it's also worth noting that Andy Ngo, the guy tweeting, is also a giant piece of shit:

- Bruh, as soon as I saw cbs say they corresponded with them while in Ukraine I knew there'd be a shit ton of conspiracy theories.
  I think the one they settle on is going to really be "the media" tried to kill trump
From what I understand, the first assassination it wasn't clear the shooter particularly hated Trump. Sounded more like a school shooter. If anyone has seen reporting otherwise I'd be interested to read it.
That's not really advocating.
- Wait. Cmon dude. Trump says "fight" and people scream stochastic terrorism, this guy says you're free to kill Trump if you're not a coward and you're like "naw, that's just poetic license?" Don't be obtuse.
  
  Trump is directing an audience of his supporters to fight, while this is a nobody tweeting at an entire country letting them know they are free to assassinate him. I actually do see a difference.
  
  Specifically, it was directed at Iran and a compitulation to a previous political stance. He is also just some random dude and not a "billionaire" with an actual audience.
