Accused Trump assassin’s request to push trial date not an ‘unreasonable delay’: judge

The trial for the man accused of plotting to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump at his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida earlier this year has been pushed back until September 2025, according to media reports.

Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was set to go to trial Feb. 10, 2025, but U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said in an order this week that moving the Hawaiian resident’s trial to begin Sept. 8 instead didn’t amount to an ‘unreasonable delay,’” according to an Associated Press report.
