The assassination of Charlie Kirk was “horrific and a tragedy,” former President Barack Obama said during remarks at the Jefferson Educational Society on Sept. 16, while disagreeing with Kirk’s positions on several social issues.
“So, look, obviously, I didn’t know Charlie Kirk. I was generally aware of some of his ideas. I think those ideas were wrong, but that doesn’t negate the fact that what happened was a tragedy and that I mourn for him and his family,” Obama said.
