Posobiec explained that the largest question yet to be answered surrounding the suspect, Ryan Routh, is about his direct ties with Ukrainian operations. Routh wrote books about Ukraine and was "directly tied with foreign fighter groups" going to the war-torn country as well as financial aid going to the Azov battalion.
Routh had been previously profiled by major mainstream media outlets including the New York Times over his ongoing attempts to bring foreign fighters from Kabul to Kyiv.
"There's no question in my mind that he has overlapped with the national security agencies, and I can exclusively report from my sources that he did receive battlefield training in Ukraine," Posobiec said, adding that the backpacks the potential shooter had with him contained ceramic tiles which could be used as "makeshift body armor."
Routh had set these backpacks up against a fence to form a sniper's nest hidden in the bushes surrounding Trump's golf course in West Palm Beach where he reportedly hid for almost 12 hours before being spotted by secret security who shot at him. He fled and was later apprehended.
"Is it possible that these tactics were learned on the battlefield in Ukraine or from Ukrainian forces?" Posobiec pondered. "Was this a blowback? And the other question, by the way, how did he get a rifle if this guy was a former felon who wasn't supposed to have a firearm with the serial number shaved off? Folks, you better get your head in the game. They are trying to kill President Trump, and they're not going to stop."
