""My husband, he wanted to save young men, just like the one who took his life," she began. "That man, that young man, I forgive him. I forgive him because it was what Christ did and it is what Charlie would do." "The answer to hate is not hate," the widow added, in stark contrast to the president's words. "The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love, love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us.""
""He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them," Trump said of Kirk. "It was Charlie who helped unite MAGA. And you know what MAHA is, that's right. Make America Healthy Again," Trump said. "That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponents, and I don't want the best for them. I'm sorry," Trump added. "I am sorry Erika.""
Trump headlined Charlie Kirk's public memorial at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, speaking immediately after Erika Kirk. Trump apologized to Erika and Kirk for disagreeing about how to treat political opponents, stating that he hates his opponents and does not want the best for them. Erika Kirk, fighting back tears, forgave the shooter who killed her husband and invoked gospel teachings of love for enemies. During his tribute, Trump also claimed his administration had "found an answer to autism," invoked "MAHA" (Make America Healthy Again), and promoted an upcoming White House event on autism.
