Since apparently @realDonaldTrump schedule wasn’t public how did the shooter know to be at the golf course?

Hmmm… Interesting question posed here by Tennessee MAGA Congressman Tim Burchett, famous for admitting he doesn’t want to do anything about gun control after three elementary school kids were slaughtered in his state last year. How could this guy have known that Trump would be on the golf course in Palm Beach if it wasn’t on his public schedule? We can probably start with that the schedule was completely empty and that with 51 days to go before the election, attempted assassin Ryan Routh, knew that Trump was not in the swing states but at one of his homes. Posting “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” randomly at 10:44 AM on Sunday also may have served as a hint that he was not busy with any other campaign-related activity. There’s also that the movements of “Trump Force One” are publicly searchable on air traffic tracking websites, so Routh knew that if not Trump himself but his plane was in the Palm Beach area. From here we have to speculate, but it’s extremely unlikely to turn out that Routh had acquired the Orange God Emperor’s whereabouts by any means other than simply observing his motorcade leaving Mar-a-Lago, arriving at the golf course, or both.
It’s hard to see it as being much more sophisticated than that. The fat, lazy bastard was not out on the road trying to recapture the White House, but dicking around on social media before making his way to a round of golf with one of his billionaire buddies and a maniac found him.
