He wants his people to destroy everything for his own narcissism. That man is one of the most sickening people in history.

Being shot and killed while debating about gun violence is some crazy irony, while also believing that lives are worth keeping the 2nd amendment. Life is crazy

Absolutely disgusting that he has not made a statement about the school shooting that happened at the same time and also resulted in death.

Far-right people complaining about hate speech is the extreme limit of hypocrisy.

Seeing Trump’s response to Charlie Kirk’s assassination, just proves what an awful leader he is. Instead of taking this tragic moment, and acknowledging it as to what the US is dangerously going towards, and saying something to fix towards unifying the US, he just adds fuel to the fire. Good job President Trump, you continue to show what a despicable human being you are.

Why is MAGA saying 'they?" It was one person who fired the shot that killed Charlie Kirk. Not "they."
