Donald
Trump has said his supporters should respond peacefully to the killing of
rightwing activist Charlie Kirk as the gunman continued to evade a manhunt more
than 24 hours after the fatal shooting.
A day
after Trump gave an inflammatory address blaming the “radical left” for the
killing and pledging a wide-ranging response, the president agreed with a
suggestion from a conservative reporter that his supporters should not respond
with violence.
Trump
said Kirk had been “an advocate of nonviolence” and “that’s the way I’d like to
see people respond”.
The
president cited “big progress” in the investigation while authorities said the
gunman remained at large a day after 31-year-old Kirk – a close ally of Trump
who drove youth recruitment to the president’s Maga movement – was fatally shot
while addressing a crowd at a Utah university.
Here are
the day’s key Trump administration stories at a glance.
