Psaki Says Trump’s Charlie Kirk Video Is an ‘Escalation’ of the Situation

PSAKI: “He put out a four-minute video. I’m not gonna play the video. I don’t wanna play the video, but there was a line at the end that I think is — I just wanted to raise and read it. At the end of this is four-minute video he says, ‘For years, those on the radical left have compared wonderful Americans like Charlie to Nazis and the world’s worst mass murderers and criminals. This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism that we’re seeing in our country today, and it must stop right now.’ And obviously, there’s a lot of rhetoric that is problematic. A lot of it is coming from one particular side and from one particular building. But what can be done? I fear that this is an escalation already, in less than 24 hours of this shooting.”
Kelly: “Yeah, I think historically, presidents have looked for opportunities to bring people together. You know, right now we need a president little bring the country together and not try to further divide us.”
