Donald Trump is repeatedly attempting to blame President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for what is being investigated as a second assassination attempt, allegedly by a suspect who yet again is another GOP voter. Trump claimed, “Because of this Communist Left Rhetoric, the bullets are flying,” despite no shots being fired at him during the second alleged assassination attempt.

Local law enforcement on Sunday arrested a 2016 Trump voter who reportedly supported former Trump UN Ambassador Nikki Haley for president and far-right entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy for vice president in this year’s election cycle, calling it a “winning ticket now that we can all get behind,” according to The Daily Beast.

The suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, who has now been charged with federal gun crimes, had been hanging around the ex-president’s Florida golf course for about 12 hours before the U.S. Secret Service confronted and ultimately shot at him, the Associated Press reports. The FBI is investigating the incident as an attempted assassination.

“Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, faces charges of possessing a firearm despite a prior felony conviction and possessing a firearm with an obliterated serial number. Additional and more serious charges are possible as the investigation continues and Justice Department prosecutors seek an indictment from a grand jury,” according to the AP.

CNN reports Routh, 58, “once supported but then dismissed [Trump] as an ‘idiot,’ a ‘buffoon’ and a ‘fool.'”

“For years, he criticized not only Trump but himself, describing Trump as ‘my choice’ in the 2016 presidential election but later writing that he is ‘man enough to say that I misjudged and made a terrible mistake.'”

The shooter who allegedly attempted to assassinate Trump in July was a registered Republican, according to multiple news sites including USA Today.

On Monday Trump spoke with Fox News about Routh, who reportedly had an AK-47 with him while being 300 to 500 yards away from Trump.

“He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it,” Trump told Fox News. “Their rhetoric is causing me to be shot at, when I am the one who is going to save the country, and they are the ones that are destroying the country — both from the inside and out.”

“They use highly inflammatory language,” Trump claimed. “I can use it too — far better than they can — but I don’t.”

Most recently, Trump has called for the “remigration” of immigrants in America, including those in the country legally. That came after he attacked legal immigrants living and working in Springfield, Ohio, as did his vice presidential running mate, U.S. Senator JD Vance, of Ohio. On Sunday Vance admitted he and Trump “create stories” to advance their agenda.

Former Obama State Dept. official Richard Stengel, who also served as the chief executive of the National Constitution Center and was once TIME magazine’s managing editor, shared his thoughts on Trump’s remarks:

“1. There is no place for political violence in America. 2. Trump says the words of Harris supporters are responsible for the violence. 3. The truth is that Trump’s own words—his anti-immigrant rhetoric, his racist taunts, his long-time encouragement of rough treatment for his foes—helps create a climate where violence occurs. 4. He remains a threat to democracy and not saying that is itself a threat to democracy. 5. I pray there are no more violent threats on Trump or any other candidate.”

Trump followed up his comments to Fox News with a post on the social media website X, and used the opportunity to once again extend his attacks on immigrants.

“The Rhetoric, Lies, as exemplified by the false statements made by Comrade Kamala Harris during the rigged and highly partisan ABC Debate, and all of the ridiculous lawsuits specifically designed to inflict damage on Joe’s, then Kamala’s, Political Opponent, ME, has taken politics in our Country to a whole new level of Hatred, Abuse, and Distrust. Because of this Communist Left Rhetoric, the bullets are flying, and it will only get worse!” he wrote early Monday afternoon, before using the post to attack immigrants, which he has done almost if not daily since last week’s debate.

“Allowing millions of people, from places unknown, to INVADE and take over our Country, is an unpardonable sin,” Trump said, before launching into an all-caps diatribe demanding “terrorists, criminals, and mentally insane, immediately removed from american cities and towns, deported back to their counties of origin.”

Donald Trump is continuing to target immigrants, and focusing his attacks on swing states in which he is struggling in the polls – and he’s getting support for his efforts from some top names in the GOP. Five days after his lie migrants from Haiti are “eating the dogs” and “eating the cats” of the residents of Springfield, Ohio, Trump, apparently for the first time, invoked language used by the far-right in Europe to vow he will forcibly deport millions of immigrants from those swing states and the rest of the country if elected President in November.

Saturday night Trump called for “remigration,” the forceful deportation of immigrants, including those in the U.S. under lawful and unlawful circumstances. He vowed to “end the migrant invasion of America,” and falsely characterized some programs that allow legal entry to the U.S. under law.

“As President I will immediately end the migrant invasion of America,” Trump posted on his Truth Social website. “We will stop all migrant flights, end all illegal entries, terminate the Kamala phone app for smuggling illegals (CBP One App), revoke deportation immunity, suspend refugee resettlement, and return Kamala’s illegal migrants to their home countries (also known as remigration).”

He also promised to “save our cities and towns in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and all across America.”

Trump is losing in four of those five battleground states, according to FiveThirtyEight’s current polling average: Minnesota (Harris +6.2%), Wisconsin (Harris +2.6%), Michigan (Harris +1.5%), Pennsylvania (Harris +0.6%), and North Carolina (Trump +0.5%).

Remigration is advocated by some in the European far-right, nationalist, and fascist movements.

Marine Le Pen, the French far-right nationalist who promotes anti-immigration and anti-Islam positions, viewed remigration as so extreme she broke with her allies over it. Earlier this year Politico Europe reported Le Pen said “that she was in ‘total disagreement’ with the reported discussions on ‘remigration.'” Those discussions included the forced deportation of some French citizens, who were described as “unassimilated citizens.”

Le Pen is supported by Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán, a far-right Christian nationalist and extremist. Trump frequently praises Orbán, and during last week’s presidential debate held him up as a top supporter.

Trump’s use of the term “remigration” caught the eye of experts, including attorney Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, a senior fellow at the American Immigration Council.

Pointing to the ex-president’s use of the phrase “remigration,” Reichlin-Melnick writes: “Wikipedia describes it as a ‘far-right and Identitarian political concept’ largely used to describe the mass deportation of non-white immigrants and their descendants from Europe.”

Noted professor of history Ruth Ben-Ghiat, an expert on authoritarians, fascism, and propaganda, responded that Trump “knows what he is doing. He chooses his words carefully.”

Trump’s call for “remigration” also caught the eye of some top Republicans.

“I think his immigration policies to repatriate the illegals and close the border will also help because that’s going to make it less likely that those folks will be able to vote,” Florida Governor Ron DeSantis told Fox News on Sunday, as Florida Politics reported.

And Trump’s architect of migrant child separation, Stephen Miller, hailed his former boss’s “remigration” vision:

READ MORE: Senator Suggests Trump Engaging in ‘Stochastic Terrorism’ Amid Pet-Eating Immigrant Lies

Donald Trump is on his fourth day of promoting his false claim that 20,000 undocumented Haitian migrants were dumped on Springfield, Ohio and have destroyed the townsfolk’s way of life, including by stealing people’s pet cats and dogs and eating them. Now, one U.S. Senator is suggesting the Republican presidential nominee is using “stochastic terrorism” to help his flailing presidential campaign.

A bomb threat and another, unspecified threat forced several Springfield elementary schools and one middle school to evacuate or not open Thursday and Friday. On Thursday, the Springfield city hall was evacuated and shut down, as were some state motor vehicle offices.

The emailed bomb threat on Thursday echoed Donald Trump’s and U.S. Senator JD Vance’s racist lies.

“My hometown of Springfield is becoming a thirdworld (expletive) because you allowed the federal government to dump these (expletive) here,” the email stated, USA Today reports. “We have Haitians eating our animals and then you lie and claim this is not happening when we see this happening. I’m here to send a message, I placed a bomb in the following locations…”

During Tuesday’s presidential debate Trump had falsely said: “In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs. The people that came in, they’re eating the cats, they’re eating, they’re eating the pets of the people that live there.”

On Thursday he used the lie to promote the candidacy of a Republican seeking to unseat Ohio Democratic U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown.

And on Friday, despite the bomb threat and other unspecified threat, Trump said in a press conference he would travel to Springfield and vowed to do “large deportations” from that city and send the legal immigrants he removes to Venezuela.

The “20,000 illegal Haitian migrants” are reported 12,000 to 15,000, ABC News reports, and they are not “illegal.” They are in the country legally, and the town as far back as a decade ago resolved to invite immigrants to help rebuild their failing economy and businesses.

Also on Friday, while reportedly not repeating the racist pet-eating lie, Trump dismissed the bomb threats as unimportant.

Reporter: The mayor of Springfield, the police chief, the Republican governor have all debunked this story about pets. And now there are bomb threats at schools and kids being evacuated.

U.S. Senator Brian Schatz (D-HI) is not dismissing them, but he is asking how anyone could function again under a Trump presidency, and suggesting Trump is engaging in stochastic terrorism.

“Think about what it would be like to have four years of a President engaging in overtly racist stochastic terrorism against people pursuing the American dream and then just ask yourself what your immigrant grandparents would want you to do. Kids deserve to go to school safely,” Senator Schatz wrote.

Wajahat Ali is a New York Times contributing op-ed writer, Daily Beast columnist, and author of “Go Back to Where You Came From.” Responding to the news Friday of more school evacuations, Ali wrote: “Stochastic terrorism thanks to Trump and Vance.”

Mother Jones’s D.C. bureau chief David Corn, an MSNBC analyst, also noted: “Trump and Vance incite. Look up stochastic terrorism.”

And Mother Jones on X posted: “Days after Trump went on a racist rant during the presidential debate, the city of Springfield, Ohio, received a bomb threat that was explicitly hostile to immigrants and Haitians. This further proves that Trump’s demonizing rhetoric portends violence.”
