Donald Trump paid tribute to activist Charlie Kirk during the memorial service on Sunday and called him a “martyr for American freedom." The US president said that the bullet was pointed at Kirk but was aimed at every conservative.

“The gun was pointed at him, but the bullet was aimed at all of us. That bullet was aimed at every one of us. Charlie was killed for expressing the very ideas that virtually everyone in this arena and most other places throughout our country deeply believed in."

“The radicals and their allies in the media… tried to silence Charlie for a simple reason because he was winning Big. They lied about him because they did not want you to listen to him or to learn from him," he added.
