Trump's Niece Blames the President for Charlie Kirk's Murder [View all]
https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-niece-indicts-her-uncle-000610581.htmlPresident Donald Trump’s niece is calling out her uncle, saying he bears some of the blame for the murder of right-wing commentator Charlie Kirk.
After a shooter assassinated Kirk, 31, at a Utah university Wednesday, Trump called him a “martyr” and said the “radical left” was spreading rhetoric “directly responsible for the terrorism that we’re seeing in our country today” in an Oval Office address.
“My administration will find each and every one of those who contributed to this atrocity and other political violence,” he declared.
But Mary L. Trump said her uncle “should start with himself.”
“Political violence and the rhetoric that drives it are almost entirely on the side of the Republican Party, and no person is more responsible for it than Donald Trump,” Mary, 60, wrote Thursday in her The Good in Us Substack.
