I was thinking the same. The elected legislators who served and actively worked to end gun violence being assassinated in their homes is watershed. The man who said gun deaths were needed in America being shot as he intentionally incites hatred isn’t hitting that mark for me.

The simple fact that Spencer Cox actually believe this nonsense when he endorsed Trump is proof that he is utterly clueless. Trump can't unite. It is impossible.

The Minnesota legislators gunned down two months ago in their homes by a Right-Wing nut job wasn't a watershed moment? But demagogue Charlie Kirk's murder is? Seriously?

If I were editing a column about Charlie Kirk’s political genius, I would tell the writer he needed to quote Kirk’s actual political beliefs. If the writer responded that doing so would weaken or distract from his argument, it’d be a pretty good sign that the column was not ready for prime time.

I don't have a lot of sympathy for Charlie. Kirk, he has said and done some pretty horrible things and his rhetoric has led to violence against groups he doesn't like. Sometimes that violence returns to the source. Regardless of your political views, this is not a good day for America.
