There was a second assassination attempt on Donald Trump over the weekend. The would-be assassin Ryan Wesley Routh was purportedly ready to open fire on the former president as he was golfing at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Routh fled and was later apprehended, though not before leaving his AK-style rifle with a scope and a GoPro at the scene.
