“Almost as soon as Robinson was identified, the tone of MAGA leaders' conversation about the shooting changed. Representative Nancy Mace (R-SC), who had used a slur to refer to the shooter as pro-transgender, posted on social media: ‘We know Charlie Kirk would want us to pray for such an evil, and lost individual like Tyler Robinson to find Jesus Christ. We will try to do the same.’"

"For his part, Trump seemed to have lost interest in Kirk even earlier. Yesterday evening, a reporter offered the president his condolences on the loss of his friend Kirk and asked Trump how he was holding up. The president answered, in full: ‘I think very good.'"

"'And by the way, right there, you see all the trucks, they just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get, as you know, for about 150 years, and it's going to be a beauty. It’ll be an absolutely magnificent structure. And I just see all the trucks. We just started so it'll get done very nicely and it'll be one of the best anywhere in the world, actually. Thank you very much.’”

"This is quite the display of grief:

Reporter: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?

Donald: I think very good. . . . They started construction on the new ballroom . . . it's going to be a beauty. It'll be absolutely magnificent."

~ Mary L. Trump quoted by Greg Dworkin

"The WSJ, Nancy Mace, and Republicans owe the transgender community, and the rest of us, an apology for trying to incite their base to commit violence against 'the left.'"

"Brian Levin, founder of the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism and a professor emeritus at Cal State San Bernardino, said, 'the more violent fringes of Christian nationalism have disturbing aspects that are eliminationist and antidemocratic.'”
