Erika Kirk says she 'forgives' Charlie's killer before Trump declares 'hate' for foes - Lemmy.World

Of course she forgives him, he's the reason the money is all hers now.

That section of the far right is basically why Kirk was doing a “comeback tour” they’ve been harassing him for years.

It’s a safe bet she understands that the shooter was another faction of the far right and that if people keep talking about it, the well dries up.

When right wingers think “a leftist” killed him, they give blindly

They figure out a right-winger killed a right-winger, and they’ll all start picking sides.

trump is so anxious to push this, he’s going to fuck around and people will hear what really happened. Especially since the shooter has zero reason to try for a plea deal now.

He’s taking it to trial and going on the stand, because every politician involved has said they want the death penalty.

The shooter literally has nothing to lose.

Is this speculation or has there been a statement?

About if they’re going to push for the death penalty? Yes, the governor and Trump have both explicitly called for it, and the judge told him it was on the table when reading him his charges
I meant about Robinson taking the stand.

Oh… I misread that as taking a stand, but that seems unlikely seeing as he’s just been provided a lawyer. That’s a very bold move in a case like this, and this is negligently early in the process to decide that

With how much misinfo there is in this case, I wouldn’t believe it unless it comes from the lawyer directly
