My understanding is that Routh’s spot was a known break in the tree cover which paparazzi used to get long-distance photos of Trump and other celebrities on that exclusive golf course.

One wonders why the Secret Service was apparently unaware of that sight line.

Yeah, I don’t quite grok that one either. It seems like Trump made a last minute decision to golf at that course, so why had Routh been sitting out there for 12 hours? Granted, there are a lot of bushes and trees that can conceal someone, but nobody can hang around a golf course for a week without being noticed, and eventually told to move on, especially if it’s a place where a former President likes to play.

now whoever constructed this legend, is pretty sloppy, Trump was against the Iran deal from the getgo, a big rally in 2015, now despite his long criminal record he never spent a day in jail, james earl ray was kind of a petty criminal, that they broke out of jail,

Now Hoover was admittedly hamhanded, but he saw the Highlander school, Levinson, and O’Neil two Stalinists advising King and he saw red flags, now Garrow says he was mistaken about that, but Bayard Rustin, was certainly concerned enough, after that incident he went even further to the left contracting William Pepper who has spun some of the crazier tales of the assasination that have made it into the lore in shows like NY Undercover, and books like Steve Berry’s Bishops Pawn

How does a piece work roofer live in Hawaii (most expensive state to live in), also has a house in NC, travels to Ukraine and other places, etc???

Follow the money. Someone was funding this guy and that is who we need to find. Of course, it will never happen. As with all things connected to the Democrats it will be buried and never see the light of day. Such is our effed up country.

But it’s clear that the FBI meant no good to King and had mounted a campaign to destroy King as part of the FBI’s war on communism.

Routh reminds me of James Earl Ray, convicted assassin of Martin Luther King Jr. Ray was a two-bit cracker armed robber who had broken out of prison and was on the run.

Yet somehow he managed to kill MLK then elude an international dragnet while traveling to Canada, the UK and Portugal for almost a year.

Back in my conspiracy days that seemed a tip-off that Ray was not what he seemed and maybe his talk of a larger conspiracy was true. The MLK family still believes that.

But lately my respect for law enforcement, particularly the FBI, has somehow declined. It certainly seems possible that a nonentity like Ray could have led them a dance.

Then there were the FBI’s efforts to entice King to commit suicide.

I’ve forgotten, if ever I knew, how Ray funded his post-MLK travels.

This doesn’t mean he ever actually supported Trump, just that he thought he would have more clout if he made the claim. Point is, his claims about his past self in public aren’t worth much either way.
