The son of the alleged would-be assassin who targeted Donald Trump on his Florida golf course Sunday said his father hates the former president like “every reasonable person does” and claimed he’s not a violent person.

Oran Routh (35) told The Daily Mail, “I don’t like Trump either,” but insisted that his father, Ryan Wesley Routh, who was arrested for the alleged assassination attempt, isn’t violent and that he was surprised to hear about the allegations. He told the outlet, “He’s my dad and all he’s had is couple traffic tickets, as far as I know… I know my dad and love my dad, but that’s nothing like him.”

Oran Routh added, “He’s not a violent person. He’s a hard worker and a great dad. He’s a great dude, a nice guy, and has worked his whole f*cking life.” Trump was playing the course at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida when US Secret Service agents noticed the barrel of a rifle protruding through a chain link fence about 300 to 500 yards away and opened fire on Ryan Wesley Routh.

Routh fled in a black Nissan but was quickly apprehended and investigators found a GoPro camera, two backpacks, and an AR-style rifle he allegedly left behind.

This was the second assassination attempt on the former president in two months.

Oran Routh made the claim despite his father operating a website aimed at recruiting and transporting fighters and volunteers from around the world to fight in Ukraine. The New York Times featured him in 2023 for his work in recruiting and transporting fighters to support Ukraine.
