"Trump took questions from reporters on Monday, where he again blamed the left for the assassination of Charlie Kirk in Utah last week. Kirk was killed with a single shot to the neck. Police have arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson in connection with the shooting. Although police have not disclosed a motive, Trump and other conservatives started blaming the left even before a suspect had been identified."
"The reporter asked Trump, In retrospect, given all of the moving ways that this White House has paid tribute to Charlie Kirk, do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to have staff when Melissa Hordman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin as well? Uh, I'm not familiar, Trump replied. The who? The Minnesota House Speaker, a Democrat, was assassinated this summer, the reporter reiterated."
President Donald Trump decried the radical left for causing tremendous violence and blamed the left for Charlie Kirk's assassination in Utah. Police arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson in the Kirk shooting and have not disclosed a motive. Conservatives, including Trump, blamed the left before authorities identified a suspect. Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman was shot and killed at home by a man posing as a police officer, and another state senator and his wife were wounded. Authorities said the suspect's anti-abortion views may be a motive. Trump said he was unfamiliar with Hortman's killing and would have lowered flags only if the governor requested it.
