What does it mean to kill Charlie Kerk to America Donald Trump

It seems that the gunshots that killed the conservative and suspended activist Charlie Kirk on the campus of the University of Utah are preparing to hesitate all parts of the United States in ways that can make America Donald Trump more attractive.

Kerk, the founder of the 31 -year -old Turning Point Point USA and a major power in building support between the young voters of Trump and his Maga movement on Wednesday afternoon.

In a video posted in that evening, US President Kerk described as a “martyr of truth and freedom” and said he was “full of sadness and anger” to kill.

“It is time for a long time for all Americans and the media to face the fact that violence and murder are the tragic result of the demonization of those who do not agree with them, day after day, after year, with the most hateful and motor methods,” Trump said of the Oval Office.

If he continued in this context, Trump could have played the highest role. However, he only continued to condemn the left’s speech, fled political violence against Republicans and pledged the campaign.

“For years, those who are on the left of the American extremist, such as Charlie, compared the Nazis, the worst killers and collective criminals in the world,” Trump said.

Trump said: “This type of speech is directly responsible for the terrorism that we see in our country today, and it must now stop … The extreme left political violence has harmed many innocent people and took a lot of lives,” Trump said. “My administration will find each of those who contributed to this atrocities and another political violence, including the organizations that fund and support them.”

Can Trump calm the gap?

It is difficult to see how Trump’s words can work in the wake of Kirk’s death to calm the angry political gap in America instead of fueling them.

The American political class – which was shocked globally what the governor of Utah state called “political assassination” – is considering the meaning of shooting for the future of the country.

Graham added: “They also draw government responses, which is especially concerned with the president who disturbs the rule of law, exceeds checks on the executive authority and wants to remove some civil freedoms.”

Trump’s private record of inflammatory discourse includes a The last anniversary day This year addressed to “the” scum that has spent the past four years in an attempt to destroy our country through the distorted extremist left minds. “

During the campaign stopped in November 2023, it is I promised “Get rid of the Communists, Marxists, fascists, and radical thugs who live like insects within the borders of our country that lie, steal and cheat in the elections.”

Increase the regularity of political violence

While there was a condemnation of Kirk’s killing through the political spectrum, some in the United States are asking whether there was an equivalent response from the two -party fire in June, which killed one of the elected Democrats in Minnesota and her husband and another injury.

Trump described these attacks as “horrific” in a social media post, but when asked if he had spoken to the governor of Minnesota Tim and Alz after that, The president responded“I think the governor of Minnesota state is very troubled. I don’t contact him. Why do I call him?”

Stephen Webster, author of the book ” American anger: How anger constitutes our policyBoth Democrats and Republicans say they were the target of political violence and hoped to calm down in the wake of Kirk’s killing.

“The encouraging thing is that opinion polls show that most Americans do not support political violence. But the sad reality is that we see it regularly,” Webster told CBC Network. Hanomansing tonight.

Webster says that the way political leaders interact help in forming the audience’s view of such events.

“Whenever the Democrats and Republicans could say that this is unacceptable and that it is outside the limits of anything we expect to see in our policy, I think the better what we are.”

“It must stop”

American political leaders have recently had many opportunities to respond to political violence.

There were 21 documented “terrorist attacks on public officials motivated by party political beliefs” between 2016 and 2023, compared to only two over the previous two decades, according to a report By the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Washington Research Tank.

This number does not include two assassination attempts at Trump in 2024, and no shooting for this year for Democrats in Minnesota.

“Unfortunately political violence was colliding in this country,” Illinois governor, JB Pritzker, a democratic, He told reporters On Wednesday after the death of Kirk.

“You must stop, and I think there are people who raise it. I think the president’s speech often raises it.”
