Eric Trump Urges Megyn Kelly’s Viewers to ‘Entertain’ Notion Second Assassination Attempt Was an ‘Inside Job’
Eric Trump has raised eyebrows by suggesting that the recent assassination attempt against his father, President Donald Trump, might have involved insider complicity.
His remarks came during a startling interview on Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show.”
This dramatic revelation comes after federal and local authorities confirmed the arrest of 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh on Sunday.
Routh is accused of trying to assassinate the former president at the Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida.
One question has persisted during recent days: how did Routh know Trump would be golfing considering the outing was reportedly a “last-minute decision?”
Eric Trump’s comments are fueling speculation and concern, particularly given the unusual circumstances surrounding the incident.
“Everybody had better entertain everything,” Eric Trump said during the interview, urging listeners to consider all possibilities, including the disturbing idea that the attack could have been an inside job; an idea that was echoed by a ex-FBI official, as previously reported by TTOA.
This assertion is especially provocative given that Trump was not officially scheduled to be at the golf course at the time of the incident, as reported by CNN.
Eric Trump elaborated on his doubts about the security surrounding the attack.
He questioned how Routh managed to carry an AK-47 across a highly visible area without being detected.
“The guy literally brought a rifle across a massive street,” Eric Trump said.
“You’ve got probably 20 yards of beautiful, perfectly manicured grass, then you get to a row of beautiful palm trees, then you have about another 20 yards of grass, and then you’ve got a big hedge line.”
His skepticism centers on how such a large firearm could be transported so openly without raising alarm.
The former president’s son further criticized the security response, pointing out the seemingly lax vigilance that allowed Routh to get so close.
“I mean, he literally went across a massive highway in the middle of the day with a long gun,” Eric Trump remarked. “Something you can’t just throw in a backpack. Slithering his way into the bushes adjacent to a golf hole that my father happened to be on at that time—yeah, you better entertain those possibilities.”
Eric Trump’s comments reflect a deep concern about the safety of his father and the effectiveness of the security measures in place.
He also speculated on more sinister scenarios, such as the possibility that Routh could have been well-camouflaged or that a security agent could have been neutralized, allowing for a more severe attack.
The details of the incident emerged after Secret Service agents at the golf course spotted a rifle barrel sticking out from behind a fence.
Daily Mail reported that they responded immediately, firing at Routh, who fled the scene but was later captured by local law enforcement in Martin County, Florida.
Authorities discovered an AK-47 style rifle with a scope, two backpacks containing ceramic tiles and a GoPro, which Routh intended to use for documenting the attack.
The investigation has now been taken over by the FBI, with additional scrutiny from the state of Florida under Governor Ron DeSantis.
Sheriff Ric Bradshaw of Palm Beach County described the situation as alarming, given the items Routh left behind and the potential danger posed.
Eric Trump’s call to “lock down this perimeter” and his insistence that “they are trying to get him” underscore the high level of concern about ongoing threats against the former president.
His statements have added a new layer of intrigue and urgency to an already tense situation.
