A few observations about the Charlie Kirk Memorial Tent Meeting

Actually, just a few.

1. Erika Kirk is being lauded for "forgiving" her husband's murderer.  My guess is that if the killer turned out to be a left-winger, as many on the right have claimed, her forgiveness wouldn't so readily forthcoming.

Having said that, I *do* believe that her grief was genuine.

2. Cheeto's handlers did *not* do him any favors by having take the stage after her.

3. Cheeto didn't do himself any favors either by turning his speech to eulogize Kirk into an ego-driven diatribe against all of the (perceived) slights against Cheeto himself.

4. Since the "memorial" became a festival for Christian nationalism, how long before State Farm Stadium becomes known as Hate Farm Stadium?

The killer is a left winger according to his parents and bullet etchings, not to mention his hate for Kirk.
