Donald Trump Jr. and others have highlighted some of Routh’s most shocking posts.
“Sounds like this psychopath spends a lot of time watching leftwing propaganda,” Trump Jr. tweeted Sunday.
The suspect is also a fanatical supporter of Ukraine in its war against Russia.
On Monday, Donald Trump Jr. shared an image of Routh’s truck parked in front of his home with the caption:

“Show the world what compassion and humanity is all about,” by attending the funeral of the fireman who was murdered by Thomas Crooks.
He wrote:
“@KamalaHarris You and Biden should visit the injured people in the hospital from the Trump rally and attend the funeral of the murdered fireman. Trump will never do anything for them…show the world what compassion and humanity is all about.”
