The right wants Charlie Kirk’s death to be a “George Floyd moment”

It is impossible, I think, to grasp the terrible consequences of Charlie Kirk’s death without understanding who he was in life.  Liberals had a dim view of that track record — focusing on his often-offensive radio broadcasts and contributions to Trump’s authoritarian project (like sending seven buses to the January 6 protest).
