The Spin

Ryan Routh spent over ten hours lying in wait with a scoped rifle at Trump International Golf Club, positioned 300 to 500 yards from the president, and was only stopped when a Secret Service agent spotted his weapon barrel protruding from the bushes. This dangerous lunatic showed zero remorse throughout his trial, even had the audacity to claim he was just "caring too much" and engaging in peaceful protest, and prosecutors rightly noted that murder is not a legitimate way to oppose a presidential candidate.

Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee with a documented history of biased rulings favoring the president, sentenced Routh to life in prison despite his lawyers' motion for her recusal based on Trump's repeated public praise of her decisions. The assignment of yet another Trump-related case to Cannon creates significant doubts about impartiality and irreparably damages the integrity of the judicial process, especially when the former president could potentially appoint her to a higher court.
