Democrats skip Charlie Kirk Arizona memorial after 58 vote against House resolution

The Dems’ disdain for Charlie Kirk showed, even on the day of his memorial. 

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, slammed others in her party for not opposing the resolution honoring him, saying it “hurt [her] heart” that only two White Democrats voted no.

She claimed Kirk’s rhetoric targeted people of color. In total, 58 House Dems voted against it. President Trump fired back: “It tells you that they’re deranged.”

Despite calls to deescalate, Dems still labeled Trump a fascist and skipped Kirk’s memorial in Arizona, and only six attended the earlier Capitol vigil.

Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who are among Kirk’s harshest critics, also didn’t hold back. Omar claimed Kirk’s legacy belongs “in the dustbin of history.”

Ocasio-Cortez previously called Kirk’s views “ignorant [and] uneducated.” 

At the memorial, former Trump administration official Ben Carson appeared to fire back: “I’ve seen him run circles around people with college degrees.”
