Donald Trump Jr. Says Kirk Assassination A Sign Leftists ‘Have Lost The Debate Entirely’

Donald Trump Jr. told Fox News host Martha MacCallum Friday that the assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk was an admission of defeat by the left.

Authorities arrested Tyler Robinson, accusing him of gunning down Kirk during a TPUSA “Prove Me Wrong” event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday as he debated people on a variety of topics. Trump told MacCallum that Kirk’s assassination was a fascist tactic. (RELATED: Scott Jennings Erupts, Says Dems Have ‘No Idea How To Debate’ After Charlie Kirk’s Assassin Caught)

“I know Charlie and I spoke about this frequently, sort of the irony of the anti-fascist these days. They seem to be taking a lot of their playbook out of the fascist, out of the browncoats,” Trump Jr. said during Friday’s episode of “The Story.” “If you don’t agree with someone, kill them. That seems fascist. I wish we would stop calling them Antifa. There is nothing anti about their fascist tendencies.”

During multiple campaigns, including the 2024 presidential election and the 2022 midterm elections, Democrats labeled President Donald Trump and Republicans as fascists or threats to democracy. Trump Jr. said the increased violence was a sign that the left had no ideas.

“It’s almost as though, Martha, they know they’ve lost the plot. They know they’ve lost the debate. So rather than lose the debate and adapt or maybe, I don’t know, wildly, come up with a better idea, or a better concept or be reasonable, implement some common sense,” Trump Jr. told MacCallum. “They realize they have lost the debate entirely, so they have to resort to violence, and contrary to what we’re seeing elsewhere and online, it is not going both ways. It is going one way.”

“It’s coming from those aligned with the Democrat Party. The hate has been fomented by those in the Democratic Party, and you can probably play hundreds of hours of those clips,” Trump Jr. added. “It’s coming from the media, you know, some of them are doing a quick course correction and probably scrubbed their social media feeds for all the things they have said about Charlie, myself, my father over the last few years.”

The X account “WesternLensman” posted a montage of Democrats and other left-wing figures claiming President Trump and Republicans were ushering in fascism. Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin also labeled the United States a “fascist regime” during an unhinged rant during an August Democratic National Committee meeting.

“You can’t call someone who you disagree with or simply can’t win an argument with a Nazi, a fascist, a dictator, a greatest threat to democracy in the history of civilization, and then pretend you had nothing to do with it when the more radical wing — and there does not seem to be all that much difference to me these days — takes up arms and tries to kill those they disagree with,” Trump Jr. said.

Shell casings found by law enforcement in the rifle allegedly used in the assassination had engravings with slogans tied to Antifa and left-wing groups.
