This is ironic! Ryan Garcia has advised a woman to seek mental health support, following her outburst about Donald Trump surviving his scary assassination attempt during a rally on Saturday in Pennsylvania. The Victorville native is serving his one-year ban from boxing after testing positive for banned substances in April this year.

In the meantime, he has made some racist and Islamophobic statements on social media, which resulted in him facing major backlash from the masses. Not to mention, for months, many have urged the boxer to get mental health support. However, since the viral clip of the woman, Ryan Garcia’s tone seems to have changed. 

Ryan Garcia warns about Satan!

Not too long ago, Daily Loud shared a clip of the woman upset and ranting about Trump surviving his assassination attempt while giving a speech in a rally. She said, “We were a centimeter away from half of the problem being gone and you MISSED”. Daily Loud shared the clip in question with the caption reading, “This disturbed woman went viral online for being upset that Donald Trump was not killed during assassination attempt”.

This attracted Garcia’s attention, as he responded to the clip, writing, “That’s Satan screaming [through] her[.] She needs mental help[.] Nobody should be shot that’s running for president, yall have lost your minds”. According to various reports, Thomas Matthew Crooks is the man involved in Trump’s failed assassination.

Immediately after the shooting, the Secret Service neutralized the perpetrator, but no motives have been discovered as of the time of writing. The former president was shot in his right ear and taken to a local hospital before being flown to his residence in New Jersey. 

What’s your perspective on:

Ryan Garcia's empathy shines—should more athletes speak out on mental health issues?

Have an interesting take?

While the 45th President is now doing fine, what makes the statement from this woman even more insensitive is the fact that one innocent man lost his life because of the shooting. Regardless, this isn’t the first time Ryan Garcia has spoken about the shooting, nor is it the first time he spoke about Satan.

‘King Ry’ Garcia is happy about Donald Trump dodging the bullet

Since the incident, world leaders and celebrities alike have raised their voice in support for the former president of America, especially because the shooting happened months away from presidential elections. So, Ryan Garcia hopped on X a couple of days ago to express his thoughts about the incident.

He wrote, “Trump left standing[.] Happy he’s okay[.] He will be the next president”. While this tweet seemed innocent enough, his past claims about Satan really puts into perspective what his mental health might be like. “Nobody is scared of satanist”, Garcia wrote in a prior tweet. Not to forget, he also went after rapper Eminem before that!

Garcia wrote, “Eminem is a satanist[.] It’s not even debatable[.] I always thought he was overrated, but hey, that’s just my opinion”. This comes after the rapper released his new studio album ‘The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grce)’. It turns out, Ryan Garcia wasn’t a big fan of the album, as he went on a homophobic tirade against the rapper. He wrote, “Eminem=Gay” among other things on X. 

As the world is reeling from what could have been a far more dire situation, Ryan Garcia unexpectedly offered sound advice to the woman upset about Trump’s failed assassination attempt. But that doesn’t change that Garcia himself should seek help. What do you think about Garcia’s tweet?
