'Very interesting' Trump omission in Kirk killer comments singled out on MSNBC

Reviewing what has transpired since far-right conservative Charlie Kirk was gunned down on a Utah college campus on Wednesday and his alleged killer was taken into custody on Friday, one MSNBC host pointed to comments made by Donald Trump in the aftermath and what was missing.

Discussing what followed after 22-year-old Tyler Robinson was taken into custody, “The Weekend “ co-host Jonathan Capehart engaged Politico’s Rachel Bade on what to make of criticism of FBI Director Kash Patel’s performance and if the controversial Trump appointee still has the confidence of the White House.

“He's [Patel] absolutely seen an erosion with support with the base,” Bade remarked and later added, “People are not happy and you can see it if you look on Twitter, a lot of conservative commentators on Twitter who are saying it's time for us, people who support the Trump administration to have a discussion about whether he's the right person to lead the FBI.”

“So what will it matter, I guess is the question,” she continued. “It didn't matter with Attorney General Pam Bondi. I mean, we saw even more heat from her on [Jeffrey] Epstein and the president stuck with her. So all that really matters is what Donald Trump thinks and it's not yet clear if Trump would be displeased with him at this point. They're still putting out statements for a lot of these stories saying that they're with him.“

Noting a New York Times story on Patel’s shaky status, Capehart pointed out, “In that story that it was noted that when the president was talking about, I think it was the capture of the suspect, he talked about, he mentioned everybody, particularly Pam Bondi didn't mention the FBI director. “

That's really interesting,” Bade conceded.
