MSNBC Guest Says Charlie Kirk Could Have Been Shot by ‘Supporter,’ Who Was Celebrating

Conservative radio host Charlie Kirk has been shot according to Utah Valley University Police Department. As of this article’s publication, the Associated Press reports the Turning Point USA co-founder is in critical condition.

MSNBC has covered the incident in the most disgraceful way possible.

Host Katy Tur said on her show while breaking the news that Kirk had been shot, that the conservative commentator is “divisive” and “polarizing.”

Somehow it got much worse from there. One of Tur’s show guests, Matthew Dowd, said that the details of the case weren’t known. But this comment certainly didn’t seem like a cautious avoidance of speculation on his part. He continued, “We don’t any of the details of this yet, we don’t know if this was a supporter shooting their guns off in celebration.”

Dowd then said that Kirk is constantly pushing “hate speech, sort of aimed at certain groups.”

It just kept getting worse.

“You can’t stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have, and then saying these awful words, and then not expect awful actions to take place,” Dowd said.

Watch here if you can stomach it.

It’s obvious that Dowd used this moment to take a cheap shot at conservatives, then insinuated that somehow it was Kirk’s fault that someone shot him.

There was a deluge of righteous anger directed toward MSNBC following this commentary.

Podcast host Ben Ferguson said of Dowd, “You are a SICK AND EVIL MAN!

Federalist editor Sean Davis said, “MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd says Charlie Kirk deserved to be shot.”

Radio host Clay Travis called the comments “utterly despicable.”

Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., said that everyone at MSNBC “should be fired.”
