Charlie Kirk’s fatal shooting sent shockwaves throughout the US, with condolences pouring in for the Trump ally. When reporters asked Donald Trump how he’s been holding up, the POTUS was quick to shift everyone’s attention to a new ballroom for the White House, which is currently under construction.
“I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they’ve been trying to get for about 150 years. And it’s gonna be a beauty. It’ll be an absolutely magnificent structure.”
Earlier, Trump stated that Kirk was “like a son to him,” and even hailed him as “legendary.” On Friday, Trump announced that Charlie Kirk’s shooter had been arrested.
