Trump Reveals His ‘Hurt’ Son Barron Was a ‘Tremendous’ Charlie Kirk Fan
President Donald Trump cited his son, Barron Trump, as an example while describing what Charlie Kirk meant to young people on Fox & Friends Friday morning.
Brian Kilmeade kicked off the conversation by asking the president what he would say to Barron and parents across the country after Kirk’s assassination.
“He [Barron] was a tremendous fan,” observed Trump before diving in:
So Barron’s a very good student, and Barron came to me and he said, “Dad, I’d like to meet somebody that you know.” “Who?” “Charlie Kirk.” I said, “What?” I thought he was going to say, I want to meet, like, King Charles or something, like we’re going to meet soon, right? But he said, “Really? You would?” And I set up a lunch with him, and he came back. He said, “That guy’s great, Dad. That guy’s great.” You know, he’s cute. “He’s unbelievable.”
“I don’t know what it was. Charlie had a magic over the over the kids, and large numbers of them — and very diverse. Black, White, I mean everybody, the young women, and boys, and I’ve never seen anything like it and it was-, it was all good. I meant it was good stuff. It wasn’t some of the stuff you read about where they’re in favor of all these horrible things. It was really good stuff and we lost an unbelievable warrior
“I’ll never forget Barron coming back saying, ‘Dad, that guy’s great.’ You know, normally he’s not-, he’s not full of praise,” continued Trump.
“What do you tell him now?” asked Kilmeade.
“He was very hurt when he saw this,” said Trump, before recalling how he found out about the news. “He’s a great man, and he’s going to be more important because of what happened.”
