(DCNF)—The man who is suspected of attempting to assassinate former President Donald Trump left a handwritten letter telling others they must “finish the job,” according to records filed by prosecutors Monday.
Ryan Routh, who faces two gun charges after allegedly attempting to assassinate the former president on Sept. 15 at his West Palm Beach, Florida, golf club, penned a note telling “the world” that he would offer $150,000 to anyone who could “complete” the job, according to court records. Prosecutors wrote that law enforcement was contacted by a witness on Wednesday who said Routh had dropped off a box at his residence including various letters, along with “ammunition, a metal pipe, miscellaneous building materials, tools, four phones,” several months before the assassination attempt.
“Dear World, this was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I am so sorry I failed you,” the letter states. “I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster.”

“Everyone across the globe from the youngest to the oldest know that Trump is unfit to be anything, much less a US president,” the letter continues.
The letter goes on to note that Trump “ended relations with Iran like a child and now the Middle East has unraveled,” according to prosecutors.
The witness opened the box left by Routh after learning of the attempted assassination on Sept. 15, the filing states.
