Donald Trump Jr. claimed political violence comes from the far-left following the assassination of TPUSA co-founder Charlie Kirk during a campus event.
Following Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Donald Trump Jr. warned that political violence in America is coming exclusively from the far-left.
« When you look at the vilification of Charlie that I’m seeing every day since then, the celebration of his assassination in cold blood in front of his wife and young children. It’s truly disgusting », he told anchor Martha MacCallum Friday on « The Story. » « What was Charlie’s real crime? He spoke truth. Every day, Martha, he platformed his biggest detractors. He gave the people who hated him the most an opportunity to argue their standpoint. »
Kirk’s killing at a campus event Wednesday in Orem, Utah, has sparked a nationwide conversation about political rhetoric, particularly whether referring to foes as « fascist » or « Hitler » can inspire far-left attacks. Investigators say bullet casings recovered near where Kirk was killed were engraved with anti-fascist phrases, including a reference to « Bella Ciao.
