The 59-year-old man was found last year with a gun near Trumps golf course in Florida. A jury was guilty of attempting to murder an important presidential candidate, reports the American Minister of Justice Pam Bondi on social media. She spoke about an attack on “our president,” but it was “also a gross insult to our country itself.”

The jury ruled that Routh intended to kill Trump, then former president and presidential candidate. He had directed his gun through a fence while Trump was golfing on the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach. He was caught by a guard. Routh risks a lifelong prison sentence.
Routh stated that he was not guilty because he did not shot.
